Hi,

I am new (very new) to ruby. I have ASP (vb script), and JavaScript experience
and now I am starting with Ruby. I have gone thru some training materials and
find the language simple enough, but I am still confused.

Basic question, I have a HTML page and want to execute ruby scripts in this
page. Am I missing the plot, or is this possible. Can somebdy maybe give me a
full sample of such code???

Hi everyone,
I am using ruby on rails as a functional testing tool for my we
applications and it is awsome. I like to know if there is a way to find
the performace of my application using this tool or any other tool
other then load runner

Hello, guys.
In my app I need to render a page in an action and them, intercept it in the
after_filter and maybe change it. Is that possible without getting a double
render error?
thanks
Bruno

Hi

	 I'm trying to find a solution to what I would describe as
inconsistent state of session objects updated from multiple pages
using Ajax techniques.

	 A concrete example would help.

	 The 'Agile Web Development with Rails' book includes the development
of a sample application called the Depot application.  Its a shopping
application - where the user shops for books, places them in a
'cart', and ultimately 'checks out'.

	 The Depot application has a page where you can see all the available
books - along the left-nav there's also a summary of the users
'cart'.  Every time a user adds a book to their cart - the left-nav
summary is updated accordingly.   In addition - assume there's a link
on this page - let's call it the 'shopping' page, that allows a user
to go to another page and edit the contents of their cart - let's
call that page the 'edit cart' page.

	 Imagine a user has added 4 books on the 'shopping' page, then they
go to the 'edit cart' page and delete all the items from their cart -
books are removed from the 'cart object' every time the user deletes
a book from their cart.  The cart object is stored in the session.
They then hit the browser's 'back' button - taking them back to the
'shopping' page - which shows the cart containing 4 books in the left-
nav summary - the same books that were in the cart when the user
initially left the 'shopping' page.  If the user refreshes the
'shopping' page - the cart is now empty, correctly reflecting the
contents of the cart.

	 I found what appears to be a solution that works 'sometimes'.  I
don't mean to be imprecise - but it literally works sometimes in
production mode and sometimes not.   I have no idea why.

	 The fix can be explained here ...

		 http://giantrobots.thoughtbot.com/2008/4/25/pitfalls-in-restful-
wizards

	 and amounts to adding a 'filter' which calls a private 'no_cache'
method defined in application.rb ...

    def no_cache
      response.headers["Last-Modified"] = Time.now.httpdate
      response.headers["Expires"] = 0

      # HTTP 1.0
      response.headers["Pragma"] = "no-cache"

      # HTTP 1.1 'pre-check=0, post-check=0' (IE specific)
      response.headers["Cache-Control"] = 'no-store, no-cache, must-
revalidate, max-age=0, pre-check=0, post-check=0'
    end


	 I then added the following line to the controller/actions that I
want to not be cached ...

		 after_filter :no_cache, :only => [:index]

	 Note: the link I included above uses a 'before' filter, and in my
testing that didn't seem to work - but an 'after' filter did.

	 Now - like I said above, it works sometimes, other times not.  So my
question - does anyone know why ?

	 Additionally - is there a reliable browser agnostic fix that can
address the underlying issue - specifically, force pages that users
return to when hitting the browse button to not be cached and
actually request the page from the server?

	 Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks for making it this
far and sorry for the length of the post.

Hello,

Last year, I began my studies of RoR by "Agile Web Development
with Rails" (the classic..) when It was in its first edition.
At that time, I've developed a Rails application, with version 1.2.X
(I do not remember the exact version).
Well, after spending a period away from Rails, I see that we have
already the version 2.x.y, but I'm in trouble with simple things that I
did in the previous version.
For example, when I create a table in mysql (via mysql client,
phpmyadmin, or any other), it was enough to make the "magic" of
"create scaffold" and voilà! The scaffold was ready.
Now, I've downloaded the version 2 of Rails, and I was making the same
thing. When I created the scaffold, voilà! The disappointment... In
the scaffold was no one of the fields form the table ... I've
searched, and understood that the version 2 do not do this by itself,
but I must inform in the command the fields of the table and its
types; moreover, I understood that the db should be created by rake,
and not by a "normal" client for mysql.
Perhaps I am wrong, but this make me think that we have no more the
"automagic" thing, but we are going in the way of any other
framework or library, as Hibernate, for example: to specify manually
to the framework the structure of the database, and perhaps worse:
having to create the database through the framework, and not through
"normal" clents. Besides it appears that there is no "trusted" book to
the new version, as the third version of "Agile Web Dev .." was not
released (yet).
Someone else had this impression?
Is there a good tutorial or official site (in Portuguese or English)
that explain the differences between the versions?
My impressions are real? There is reason for real disappointment?

Regards.

I fixed it. Turns out the all I had to do was update rcov to a newer version.
thanks

Hello, I'm new in rails and I'm developing an application using it.
In one of my model classes I need to set an initial status when I
instantiate it. I override the new method like that:

   def Iteration.new
     super(:status => 'Não Iniciada')
   end

but when in some tests I call the new method passing arguments, It
creates this error:
@iteration = Iteration.new(params[:iteration])

Error message:
test_save_failure(IterationsControllerTest):
ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments(1 for 0)

How can I override one method without ruby tring to override all of then?
Can anybody help me?
Thanks

Hi All,

Been struggling with a GoDaddy deployment. Wondering if anyone can help?

Simple Rails app where the app, componens, config copied directly
under the GoDaddy Rails container.

.htaccess (at same level as public) is:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ !/public/dispatch.fcgi  [QSA,L]

.htaccess under public is:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ dispatch.fcgi [QSA,L]

The error when I hit the site is:
[Fri Feb 15 18:30:11 2008] [error] [client 67.190.126.169]
mod_rewrite: maximum number of internal redirects reached. Assuming
configuration error. Use 'RewriteOptions MaxRedirects' to increase the
limit if neccessary.

As if the redirects are recursing? I think my DB connection is not set
up right yet, but would assume a different error if I got that far.

Any thoughts why?

Thank you most sincerely.

thx, mpfilbin.

i knew how to use habtm, but thats not what i wanted. i dont want to
have 1 or 3 or 4 teams on a match, but exactly two: one home, one away
team.

alexandre helped me out. thanks anyway.

Hi Torsten,

I am not sure I entire understand your situation, but if I were you
this is how I might set it up:

First, I would have a table teams, a table matches, and a join-table
called matches_teams

.script/generate scaffold Team
.script/generate scaffold Match
.script/generate migration create_matches_teams match_id:integer
team_id:integer

so for your migration for your teams table

001_create_teams

create_table :teams, :force => true do |t|
t.string :name
t.timestamps
end

002_create_matches
create_table :matches, :force => true do |t|
t.datetime :kickoff
t.timestamps
end

003_create_matches_teams
create_table :matches_teams, :id => false, :force => true do |t|
t.integer match_id
t.integer :team_id
end

Now you need to set up your associations in your models so that
ActiveRecord can build proper queries

teams.rb
has_and_belongs_to_many :matches

matches.rb
has_and_belongs_to_many :teams

Now, you can open up the Rails console using the command
.script/console (or script/console sandbox for sandbox mode) and play
around with the associations

>> team1 = Team.create(:name => 'Mercenaries')
>> ... output ...
>> team2 = Team.create(:name => 'Matadors')
>> ... output ...
>> match1 = Match.create(:kickoff => Time.now)
>> ... output ...
>> match1 << team1
>> ... output...
>> match1 << team2
>> .. output ...
>> match1.teams
>> should return an array of teams associated with this match.

Now I haven't tried any of this code above, but this is how HABTM
table associations work.  If you never need to have a join table with
additional attributes consider using :through => :table_name
associations, they are more rich.

I hope this helps!
- Mike

hi there,

i got to tables "teams" and "matches".

create_table :teams do |t|
   t.string :name
   t.timestamps
end

create_table :matches do |t|
   t.datetime :kickoff
   t.timestamps
end

i have to reference two teams (home & away) in the matches table. but
i dont know how to do it.

when i do something like this:

t.column 'home_team_id', :integer
t.column 'away_team_id', :integer

then i loose the association to the teams-table.

anyone with a tip for me? any help is highly appreciated.

Hi all,

I am looking for some documentation for madeleine API
(http://madeleine.rubyforge.org/)
The link on their site returns a 404 error. Do you know an alternative
location?

If you are a visual learner, I would recommend Ryan Bates blog of
webcasts (or railscasts) at www.railscasts.com.  He presents some
practical solutions to very common problems.  You should also spend a
lot of time with the API's for both Rails and for Ruby since they
usually have a couple of examples on how to use the methods; the Rails
API is particularly good at this.  If do not have a persistent
Internet connection, I would recommend generating the documentation
for the version of rails that you are using.  You can accomplish this
by running a couple rake commands from your console or command prompt:

Before you get started, make sure you are in the top of your
application directory e.g. /rails_apps/my_rails_app/

1) First freeze your version of rails by calling "rake rails:freeze:gems

2) Use RDoc to create the API documentation by calling "rake doc:rails"

The resulting HTML documentation should be located in your doc/api
subdirectory

#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/controllers/admin_controller.rb:525:in `create_option'

This is the function from controllers/admin_controller.rb

521:  def create_option
522:    @option = Option.new do |o|
523:      o.name = "New Option"
524:    end
525:    @option.save
526:    respond_to do |format|
527:      format.js do
528:        render :update do |page|
529:          page.insert_html :bottom, "options", {:partial =>
'option', :object => @option}
530:        end
531:      end
532:    end
533:  end

and models/option.rb

class Option < ActiveRecord::Base
   has_many :attributes, :dependent => :destroy
   has_many :values, :through => :attributes
end

I have tried replacing "New Option" with a number and changing the id
field to varchar(255) neither worked; this looks like something in the
save function is going wrong and I'm getting a useless error message.
  If anyone has encountered and solved this problem, I would appreciate
a tip.

Thank You.

I would recommend Agile Web Development with Rails by Dave Thomas.

Topic: Using Rails to Create an Enterprise App: A Real-Life Case Study

Date & Time: Thursday, October 18, 2007, 7pm-8:30 pm

Speaker: Dave Keener
David Keener is an IT professional, consultant and writer with over 20
years of experience. He is currently a web architect for America
Online, where he has just completed and fielded AOL's first enterprise
Rails app for internal corporate use. For more information on David
Keener, check out his blog at www.keenertech.com (yes, he knows it's
an ASP.NET site and not a Rails site, but he's too busy to do anything
about it right now).

Location:
The George Washington University
Media and Public Affairs Building
Room B02
805 21st Street NW
Washington, DC
http://www.gwu.edu/~map/hmap/index.cfm?bldg=103

Topic Description:
It seems that most Rails apps are so-called "green-field"
applications, i.e. - brand-new applications with no legacy baggage.
Find out what it takes to use Rails to create an enterprise corporate
application. This real-life case study of an actual AOL development
effort will focus on how successful the effort was; the pitfalls that
were encountered and the solutions that were devised. The discussion
will also include tips for dealing with one of the nastiest legacy
databases you'll ever encounter.

Hi all
I am new to Ruby on Rails. I want some materials to start this. Can
anyone having any tutorials regarding this send me ?

Hi buddy,

download the Radrails  as IDE and download the instanterails from web.
extract the InstantRails and show ruby.exe in  InstantRails to radrails
preference.
I think it will be easy for to work on ROR in this way.

let me know if u feel any problem.
Good luck.
