  • Rails: associate model with two of its kind

    - by Patrick Oscity
    hi all, im trying to do this: class Event < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :previous_event has_one :event, :as => :previous_event, :foreign_key => "previous_event_id" belongs_to :next_event has_one :event, :as => :next_event, :foreign_key => "next_event_id" end because i want to enable the user to repeat events and change multiple oncoming events at the same time. what am i doing wrong, or is there another way of doing this? somehow i need to know about the previous and the next event, don't i? when i'm testing this in the consolewith Event.all[1].previous_event, i get the following error: NameError: uninitialized constant Event::PreviousEvent from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:105:in `const_missing' from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.5/lib/active_record/base.rb:2199:in `compute_type' from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/active_support/core_ext/kernel/reporting.rb:11:in `silence_warnings' from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.5/lib/active_record/base.rb:2195:in `compute_type' from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.5/lib/active_record/reflection.rb:156:in `send' from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.5/lib/active_record/reflection.rb:156:in `klass' from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.5/lib/active_record/associations/belongs_to_association.rb:49:in `find_target' from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.5/lib/active_record/associations/association_proxy.rb:239:in `load_target' from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.5/lib/active_record/associations/association_proxy.rb:112:in `reload' from /Library/Ruby/Gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.3.5/lib/active_record/associations.rb:1250:in `previous_event' from (irb):2 what is going wrong here? thanks a ton for your help.

  • Building a calendar navigation in Rails (controller and view links)

    - by user532339
    Trying to get the next month when clicking the link_to. I've done the following in the view. <%= form_tag rota_days_path, :method => 'get' do %> <p> <%= hidden_field_tag(:next_month, @t1) %> <%= link_to 'Next Month', rota_days_path(:next_month => @next_month)%> </p> <% end %> class RotaDaysController < ApplicationController # GET /rota_days # GET /rota_days.json # load_and_authorize_resource respond_to :json, :html def index @rota_days = RotaDay.all @hospitals = Hospital.all @t1 = Date.today.at_beginning_of_month @t2 = Date.today.end_of_month @dates = (@t1..@t2) #Concat variable t1 + t2 together # @next_month = Date.today + 1.month(params[: ??? ] #Old if params[:next_month] # @next_month = Date.today >> 1 @next_month = params[:next_month] + 1.month @t1 = @next_month.at_beginning_of_month @t2 = @next_month.end_of_month @dates = (@t1..@t2) end @title = "Rota" respond_to do |format| format.html # index.html.erb format.json { render json: @rota_days } end end I have identified that the reason why this may not be working is in because of the following in my controller @next_month = params[:next_month] + 1.month the last two called methods is defined only on time/date objects. but not on fixnum/string objects. I understand I am missing something from this Update I have found that the actual issue is that the `params[:next_month] is a string and I am trying to add a date to to it. Which means I need to convert the string to a date/time object. Console output: Started GET "/rota_days" for 127.0.0.1 at 2012-12-14 22:14:36 +0000 Processing by RotaDaysController#index as HTML User Load (0.0ms) SELECT `users`.* FROM `users` WHERE `users`.`id` = 1 LIMIT 1 RotaDay Load (0.0ms) SELECT `rota_days`.* FROM `rota_days` Hospital Load (1.0ms) SELECT `hospitals`.* FROM `hospitals` Rendered rota_days/index.html.erb within layouts/application (23.0ms) Role Load (0.0ms) SELECT `roles`.* FROM `roles` INNER JOIN `roles_users` ON `roles`.`id` = `roles_users`.`role_id` WHERE `roles_users`.`user_id` = 1 AND `roles`.`name` = 'Administrator' LIMIT 1 Completed 200 OK in 42ms (Views: 39.0ms | ActiveRecord: 1.0ms)

  • Ruby on Rails: has_many through frustrations

    - by Joe Cairns
    I'm having a frustrating problem with a has_many through: namely the fact that the through models are not created until save. Unfortunately, I need to set data on these models prior to saving the parent. Here's the loose setup: class Wtf < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :foo belongs_to :bar end class Bar < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :wtfs has_many :foos, :through => :wtfs end class Foo < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :wtfs has_many :bars, :through => :wtfs def after_initialize Bar.all.each do |bar| bars << bar end end end Everything is fine except that I need to access the "wtf"'s prior to save: f = Foo.new = # f.bars = [list of bars] empty list here f.wtfs = [] f.save! = true now I get stuff f.wtfs = [list of stuff] I even went so far as to explicitly create the wtfs doing this: def after_initialize Bar.all.each do |bar| wtfs << Wtf.new( :foo => self, :bar => bar, :data_i_need_to_set => 10) end end This causes the f.wtfs to be populated, but not the bars. When I save and retrieve, I get double the expected wtfs. Anyone have any ideas?

  • Best Solution For Authentication in Ruby on Rails

    - by Dan Wolchonok
    I'm looking for a pre-built solution I can use in my RoR application. I'm ideally looking for something similar to the ASP.NET Forms authentication that provides email validation, sign-up controls, and allows users to reset their passwords. Oh yeah, and easily allows me to pull the user that is currently logged into the application. I've started to look into the already written pieces, but I've found it to be really confusing. I've looked at LoginGenerator, RestfulAuthentication, SaltedLoginGenerator, but there doesn't seem to be one place that has great tutorials or provide a comparison of them. If there's a site I just haven't discovered yet, or if there is a de-facto standard that most people use, I'd appreciate the helping hand.

  • Static selection and Ruby on Rails objects

    - by Dave
    Hi all- I have a simple problem, but am having trouble wrapping my head around it. I have an video object that should have one or more "genres". This list of genres should be prepopulated and then the user should just select one or more using autocomplete or some such. Here is the question: Is it worth creating a table with genres for the static selection? Or should it just be included in the presentation layer? If there is a static table, how do we name it correctly. I envision something like this class Video < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :genres ... end class Genre < ... belongs_to :video ... end But then we get a table called genre, that basically maps all the selected genres to their parent videos. There would need to be some static table to reference the static genres. Is this the best way to do it? Sorry if this was rambl-y a little stream of conciousness. Thanks!

  • Rails how to return a list of answers with a specific question_id

    - by mytwocentsisworthtwocents
    Let's say I have two Models, Answers and Questions (there are others, but irrelevant to the question). The models are as follows: Answer.rb class Answer < ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessible :description, :question_id has_one :question, :through => :user, :dependent => :destroy validates :description, :presence => true end Question.rb class Question < ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessible :budget, :description, :headline, :user_id, :updated_at, :created_at belongs_to :user has_many :answers validates :headline, :description, :user_id, :presence => true end I'd like to display on a page a list of all answers associated with a question, and only those questions. I got this far. I believe this variable finds all the questions in the database by the question_id (foreign key): @findanswers = Answer.all(params[:question_id]) And this one grabs the the id of the current question (this code will reside as an ERB on the page where the current question is located): @questionshow = Question.find(params[:id]) And now I'm stuck. How do I put the two together so that I list all the answers with the current question id?

  • Ruby on Rails: create records for multiple models with one form and one submit

    - by notblakeshelton
    I have a 3 models: quote, customer, and item. Each quote has one customer and one item. I would like to create a new quote, a new customer, and a new item in their respective tables when I press the submit button. I have looked at other questions and railscasts and either they don't work for my situation or I don't know how to implement them. I also want my index page to be the page where I can create everything. quote.rb class Quote < ActiveRecord::Base attr_accessible :quote_number has_one :customer has_one :item end customer.rb class Customer < ActiveRecord::Base #unsure of what to put here #a customer can have multiple quotes, so would i use: has_many :quotes #<----? end item.rb class Item < ActiveRecord::Base #also unsure about this #each item can also be in multiple quotes quotes_controller.rb class QuotesController < ApplicationController def index @quote = Quote.new @customer = Customer.new @item = item.new end def create @quote = Quote.new(params[:quote]) @quote.save @customer = Customer.new(params[:customer]) @customer.save @item = Item.new(params[:item]) @item.save end end items_controller.rb class ItemsController < ApplicationController def index end def new @item = Item.new end def create @item = Item.new(params[:item]) @item.save end end customers_controller.rb class CustomersController < ApplicationController def index end def new @customer = Customer.new end def create @customer = Customer.new(params[:customer]) @customer.save end end quotes/index.html.erb <%= form_for @quote do |f| %> <%= f.fields_for @customer do |builder| %> <%= label_tag :firstname %> <%= builder.text_field :firstname %> <%= label_tag :lastname %> <%= builder.text_field :lastname %> <% end %> <%= f.fields_for @item do |builder| %> <%= label_tag :name %> <%= builder.text_field :name %> <%= label_tag :description %> <%= builder.text_field :description %> <% end %> <%= label_tag :quote_number %> <%= f.text_field :quote_number %> <%= f.submit %> <% end %> When I try submitting that I get an error: Can't mass-assign protected attributes: item, customer So to try and fix it I updated the attr_accessible in quote.rb to include :item, :customer but then I get this error: Item(#) expected, got ActiveSupport::HashWithIndifferentAccess(#) Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I'm starting to get overwhelmed using VI to search through my logs to chase down login errors and would like a better solution. I know Newrelic is highly recommended, though was wondering if there was something free I could try for the short term. Thanks!

  • RoR: Where is the "rails/info/properties" route defined?

    - by Dave Paroulek
    I'm running Rails 2.3.4. When I create a new rails project, the public/index.html file has a link named "About your application's environment" that points to "rails/info/properties". In dev mode, it gives a summary of the runtime environment. However, in production mode, it gives a 404 page cannot be found. Could someone point me in the direction of how and where the "rails/info/properties" route is configured? I'd just like to understand how it's set up.

  • Ruby on Rails: Best way to save search queries in a database

    - by Adam Templeton
    For a RoR app I'm helping develop, I need to save all search queries in a database so I can analyze them later. My plan right now is to create a Result model and table, and just save each search query's text in that table, along with a user's ID, the time, etc. However, the app has about 15,000 users, so I'm afraid the single table approach won't be super efficient when it comes time to parse that data. (The database is setup via MySQL, if that factors in at all.) Am I just being paranoid? Is there a Ruby gem that handles this sort of thing, or a better approach I could take? Any input would be appreciated.

    I need some help creating a very simple forum in a existing model. What I want in a Game page, have a mini forum, where is possible create some topics and some comments to this topics.

  • Speed of running a test suite in Rails

    - by Milan Novota
    I have 357 tests (534 assertions) for my app (using Shoulda). The whole test suite runs in around 80 seconds. Is this time OK? I'm just curious, since this is one of my first apps where I write tests extensively. No fancy stuff in my app. Btw.: I tried to use in memory sqlite3 database, but the results were surprisingly worse (around 83 seconds). Any clues here? I'm using Macbook with 2GB of RAM and 2GHz Intel Core Duo processor as my development machine.

  • Rails Nested Attributes Doesn't Insert ID Correctly

    - by MunkiPhD
    I'm attempting to edit a model's nested attributes, much as outline here, replicated here: <%= form_for @person do |person_form| %> <%= person_form.text_field :name %> <% for address in @person.addresses %> <%= person_form.fields_for address, :index => address do |address_form|%> <%= address_form.text_field :city %> <% end %> <% end %> <% end %> In my code, I have the following: <%= form_for(@meal) do |f| %> <!-- some other stuff that's irrelevant... --> <% for subitem in @meal.meal_line_items %> <%= f.fields_for subitem, :index => subitem do |line_item_form| %> <%= line_item_form.label :servings %><br/> <%= line_item_form.text_field :servings %><br/> <%= line_item_form.label :food_id %><br/> <%= line_item_form.text_field :food_id %><br/> <% end %> <% end %> <%= f.submit %> <% end %> This works great, except, when I look at the HTML, it's creating the inputs that look like the following, failing to input the correct id and instead placing the memory representation(?) of the model: <input type="text" value="2" size="30" name="meal[meal_line_item][#<MealLineItem:0x00000005c5d618>][servings]" id="meal_meal_line_item_#<MealLineItem:0x00000005c5d618>_servings">

  • Rails: Serializing objects in a database?

    - by keruilin
    I'm looking for some general guidance on serializing objects in a database. What are serialized objects? What are some best-practice scenarios for serializing objects in a DB? What attributes do you use when creating the column in the DB so you can use a serialized object? How to save a serialized object? And how to access the serialized object and its attributes? (Using hashes?)

  • Adding a LIKE criteria to a Rails Conditions block

    Consider the following code which is to be thrown at an AR find: conditions = [] conditions[:age] = params[:age] if params[:age].present? conditions[:gender] = params[:gender] if params[:gender].present? I need to add another condition which is a LIKE criteria on a 'profile' attribute. How can I do this, as obviously a LIKE is usually done via an array, not a hash key.

  • Rails Authlogic authentication method

    - by Rabbott
    Within Authlogic, is there a way that I can add conditions to the authentication method? I know by using the find_by_login_method I can specify another method to use, but when I use this I need to pass another parameter since the find_by_login_method method only passes the parameter that is deemed the 'login_field'. What I need to do is check something that is an association of the authentic model.. Here is the method I want to use # make sure that the user has access to the subdomain that they are # attempting to login to, subdomains are company names def self.find_by_email_and_company(email, company) user = User.find_by_email(email) companies = [] user.brands.each do |b| companies << b.company.id end user && companies.include?(company) end But this fails due to the fact that only one parameter is sent to the find_by_email_and_company method. The company is actually the subdomain, so in order to get it here I am just placing it in a hidden field in the form (only way I could think to get it to the model) Is there a method I can override somehow..?

  • Rails easy shop

    - by ciss
    I have some question about data organization in my shop. So, after easy mind hacking i decide to create three models: Item, Property and PropertyType Item: id,property_id Property: id, data, property_type_id #(data, serialized object with something like what: {:color => "red", :price => 1000} PropertyType: id, data #(data, also serialized object with {:color => :string, :price => :fixnum}) So, does this good or bad idea? I predict what I can find some problems with validations. But I really need some fields created by user via admin-panel (now I'm talking about Item Properties, which can be changed in any time)

  • Rails: How to have dynamic association

    - by Aaron Dufall
    I'll use an example to explain what behaviour I would like to achieve. If you had a project management app and you added a task, but not all the contributors are users of the app. So when you adding contributors to the task you can enter a user name or email address. Here is the part that I'm finding a little tricky. The task model has many contributors which are linked through the user model, but from this point on I want to achieve 2 things. Store the non members email(this would obviously be quite simple) If that email address was to create an account it would then link that user to the task and remove the temporally saved email. This way, when that user creates an account all the related tasks will already be associated with their email. Is this something that i could achieve with a polymorphic association? or is there something else I should be looking at?

  • Ruby on Rails: Modules vs. Classes

    - by Jack
    I'm trying to add a function that will be accessible throughout all parts of my program. I want something like: def GlobalFunctions.my_function(x,y) puts x + y end to be accessible for all models. Specifically I am trying to use a function like this in my seeds.rb file but I am most likely going to be reusing the code and don't want any redundancy. Now I know I can make a simple class, but I could also make a module. What are some reasons to go in either direction? And once I've decided on which type to use, how do I make it accessible throughout the whole program? I have tried a module, but I keep getting " Expected app/[module file] to define [ModuleName]"

  • Sorting page flow for has_many in Rails

    - by Gareth
    I have a page flow allowing the user to choose an object ("Player") to add to a has_many :players association in another model. 1 => List existing players for object [Enter player name] 2 => List of matching players [Select player] 3 => Confirmation page [Press 'Add'] 4 => Done I want users to be able to choose "New Player" instead of selecting a player at step 2, in which case the user will go through the standard New Player process elsewhere on the site. However, after that's done, the user should return to step 3 with the new player in place. I don't know what the best way is to implement this. I don't want to duplicate the player creation code, but I don't want to dirty up the player creation code too much just for this case. I also don't want to start sticking IDs in the session if I can help it. It's fine in simple cases but if the user ever has two windows/tabs then things start behaving badly. What do you think?

To do this I'm simply looking for corrections which don't exist i.e. whose id = nil. But it is failing and i can't figure out why Sentence.find :all, :include => :correction, :conditions => {:correction => {:id => nil}} Perhaps its the syntax or maybe just the overall approach. Can anyone help?
