Validations based on associations
My model is very simple, it''s mostly just a join table that represents
which tournaments a user has registered for.
class Registration < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :user
belongs_to :tournament
validates_presence_of :user_id, :tournament_id
validates_uniqueness_of :user_id, :scope => :tournament_id
end

Testing associations
I have a pretty simple model, articles and users.
class Article
belongs_to :user
end
class User
has_many :articles
end
In my unit tests I want to ensure that the associations work properly.
What''s the best way to do this? The obvious thing to do is a test in
each model.
# user_test.rb
def test_add_post
u = users(:first)
before_articles = u.articles.count

counting rows via associations
Hi:
I have a table called clients and each client has many lists (a
has_many and belongs_to has been created in the class.
What I need to do is get a count of the rows in each list for each
client. I was hoping I could do something like
client.lists.count but it does not seem to work. Any suggestions?

Overwrite form helper methods and call old ones in new ones?
Hi all
All my forms should look the same, so I think always putting the right
div etc. tags around them is a violation of the DRY principle.
Until now my forms look like that:
<div class="text_field">
<label for="news_item_subject">Subject:</label> <%= text_field
"news_item", "subject" %>
</div>
Now I want the default

Community request - can someone show me REST?
I mentioned this in another thread, but I''ve got a formal request now.
After reading tons of stuff about REST, I don''t really get it. I
need to see an example.
I''d like someone to write up an example blog app with these requirements
- RESTful using the simply_restful plugin (or edge rails)
- allows posting of comments to articles
- has categories for posts

add method parameter for form helper
Hello,
Most of the form helpers are build using Object / Method without the
possibility of using a method parameter (as I know ...)
text_field(object_name, method, options = {})
how do you solve this problem ?
-> (I did my own helper and generate the html ... well I think there is
a better way;-)
-> do I have to overide text_field(object_name, method, parameters {},
options = {})

Analog to ruby script/generate for removing generated stuff?
All,
If I do ruby script/generate model blah,
is there an easy way for me to remove all of that stuff that got
generated?
Something like:

If it doesn''t exist, is it coming?
Thanks,

Creating multiple option groups
I''m setting up a basic shopping cart type app, and the products we
have will have multiple options. Size, color, etc. I''m trying to
figure out how I can collect the the options that are selected when a
user adds the item to their cart. An OptionSet is a group of options
("Size", "Color", etc), and an ItemOption is the option itself ("12

Object isn''t being saved when called through association
I have three models in this small game I''m working on - the Game,
Players, and Turns. A Player should be able to rescue another Player
on any given turn. So it looks like this:

has_many :players
has_many :turns
def rescue_player(p)
t = turns.last
t.rescued = p
t.save
end
end
class Turn

What''s the new syntax for predicates?
@settings.should allow_publish_ip("127.0.0.1") fails with

it "should [action] ..." vs it with an active voice
I''d like to start gathering information/debating on the
advantages/disadvantages of using it "should ..." vs other techniques.
Dan North explained why we should use should:

I used to use it "should ..." for the projects I was on, until I was
challenged by a fellow developer who started using it with an active

[PLUGIN] rspec_resource_generator - RESTful scaffold generator with RSpec specifications
rspec_resource_generator
========================
By Pat Maddox
Use this generator to generate RESTful scaffolding with RSpec specifications.
Syntax is exactly the same as the scaffold_resource generator:
./script/generate rspec_resource ModelName [field:type field:type]
When you run this generator, it will create a migration, model, and
model spec file. In addition, it gives you a RESTful

Webrick is being stupid...no info on a brand new project
I created a project, made a migration, generated scaffolding...start
up webrick and I get nothing. To simplify things, I just started
another project and generated a controller, still getting nothing.
The index page loads fine, but nothing beyond that. If I go to
anything that should give me a 404, the page is just blank. The
Webrick console just says a 500 (nothing explaining why), and
