Hi, I'd like to check the existance of a NOT NULL constraint for a given attribute using ActiveRecord. Is this possible or do I have to painstakingly query the information_schema myself? I need this for some reflection in a custom association. Thanks, - Rowan -- Morality is usually taught by the immoral. _______________________________________________ Rails mailing list

Hi, Is it normal that a call to $(''some_form'').submit() doesn''t result in the execution of an onsubmit event handler on ''some_form''? Thanks, - Rowan -- Morality is usually taught by the immoral. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Hi, What's the purpose of test/mocks?

I''m working on a Rails project that needs to be deployed in the near future. To enable prompt responses to bug reports, me and my coding partner were thinking to use the following SVN repository lay-out/policy. We''re using trunk/ for our main-line development. Whenever we deploy something from our trunk, we first want to make a branch (e.g. branches/1.x) and then derive a tag

Hi all, Can I safely assume that each migration is excuted within a transaction, so that''s it''s safe to have migrations executing failing statements? Thanks, - Rowan -- Morality is usually taught by the immoral.

I have a table that lists domain names, with a form next to it to add new domains. I have AJAXified this so that new domains are immediately added as table rows. This works fine in Firefox 1.5/Win, but not in IE6/Win. Domains are added into the database, but the HTML table is not updated unless you reload the page. Some googling tells me there are issues with e.g. link_to_remote updating

I am running Rails 1.1.2 with Ruby 1.82-15. My database is Postgresql. I haven''t had any problems generating models, migrations, using scaffolds, and generally building and using my application, but I haven''t been able to get testing to work. I initially just ignored the problem and kept developing, but would like to add proper testing from here on out. Currently when I type

Hi all, I''m wondering if "rake freeze_gems" will freeze SwitchTower as well. If it doesn''t, I could try to modify the rake task at [1] to freeze extra gems such as switchtower into vendor/ (the rake task at [1] freezes gems into lib/ which I disagree with). Is there anyone else actually using a "frozen" SwitchTower? If so, what did you do to freeze it with a

I am looking at using acts_as_versioned to manage revisions of data in several tables in my application. However, the default behavior of acts_as_versioned appears to apply to individual rows within a table. The tables I want to version are complicated lookup tables and what I really want is to version the entire contents of each table as a single set. Adding a row, deleting a row, or updating

Hi I''m choosing a database for a new Rails application. I pretty much ruled out PostgreSQL, since despite good reviews of the database itself, it seems it has countless issues with Rails (for example: in recent releases migrations don''t work, and unit-tests fail). So I should now choose between MySQL 4.1, which as I understand enjoys widespread popularity - perhaps the most

Hello Everyone, I have been reading this mailing list for a while and am impressed with the generous help that many here are eager to provide. Perhaps someone will be able to shed some light on a configuration issue I am having. Thank you in advance for any assistance.

Hi I''m trying to understand the AR find facilities, described here: http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActiveRecord/Base.html#M000650 I have a list of ids that I want to retrieve, but have a condition that should restrict the list returned: return self.find( noteids, :conditions => [ "(private = 0 OR (private = 1 AND user_id = ?))", userid] ) According to the

Hi everyone, I''m working on an file upload page that uses an ajax progress bar (http://sean.treadway.info/demo/upload/). I''ve also got validation on the uploads (must be a certain file size/mime type etc). When uploads pass validation - all is dandy. But when they fail - I can''t work out how to redisplay the form with the flash error messages (that normally appear

I read in various places that although migrations aren''t transactional, all you need to do is wrap you migration method in "ActiveRecord:: Base.connection.transaction do" to make the self.up or self.down transactional. In my experience (Rails + PostgreSQL), this doesn''t work very well. If my migration hits an exception, any tables that were touched remain modified.

I have a table that is to hold all ISO 639 language codes: alpha3t, alpha3b, alpha2, that bunch. It also (indirectly) holds language names, but that''s off-topic. alpha3t is the primary key, so I''ve told Active Record about this by saying set_primary_key "alpha3t" within the Language model. (Don''t try to call your models things like ISO639 (won''t work

This is way offtopic, but I''ve seen this several times recently and it''s annoying me. If you put "HOWTO" in your subject that means that you''re posting a guide on a particular topic. It doesn''t mean that you''re asking a question about "how to" do something. It''s not like it''s a crisis, but it screws up searches

Is anyone using migrations with a SQL Server database who might be able to lend me a hand? I''ve used migrations with MySql in the past and haven''t run into any issues so forgive When I run rake migrate nothing is actually getting updated in my database. I created a migration using ./script/generate migration AddFooTable and updated the migration to look as follows: class

Hi there.

Hi, I''m trying to run the "validates_inclusion_of" method in a before_save hook, because the range is dependant on the related data. But I can''t figure out how to call it. When calling it normally, it says it can''t find it. I''ve tried several combinations like "ActiveRecord::Validations.validates_inclusion_of", but I can''t seem to
