  • How should I do a loop a nokogiri search in ruby?

    - by kim
    I have the following that I retreive the title of each url from an array that contains a list of urls. require 'rubygems' require 'nokogiri' require 'open-uri' @urls = ["http://google.com", "http://yahoo.com", "http://rubyonrails.org"] @found_titles = Array.new @found_titles[0] = Nokogiri::HTML(open("#{@urls[0]}")).search("title").inner_html #this can go on forever...but #@found_titles[1] = Nokogiri::HTML(open("#{@urls[1]}")).search("title").inner_html #@found_titles[2] = Nokogiri::HTML(open("#{@urls[2]}")).search("title").inner_html puts "#{@found_titles[0]}" How should i form a loop method for this so i can get the title even when the list in @url array gets longer.

  • Ruby on Rails: how to sort data in an array of active record objects right before iterating?

    - by DerNalia
    What is the best way to sort an array of active record objects by by a field? This array is a field of an object, link_pages, and I want it sorted by the field "sequence" <% @menu_bar.link_pages.each do |lp| %> <li id="page_<%= lp.id%>" class="ui-state-default"> <span class="ui-icon ui-icon-arrowthick-2-n-s"></span> <font size=5><%= lp.name %></font> | <%= link_to "remove", :controller => "admin/menu_bars", :action => :remove_page_from_menu, :page => lp.id, :id => @menu_bar.id %> </li> <% end %> maybe there is a way to do @menu_bar.link_pages.sort_by_sequence.each do .... that would be slick... but I just don't know.

  • what else to do to establish many-to-many associations in Ruby on Rails? thanks!

    - by john
    Hi, I have two classes and I want to establish a many-to-many assications, here is the code: class Category < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :events has_and_belongs_to_many :tips end class Tip < ActiveRecord::Base has_and_belongs_to_many :categories However, I kept getting the following errors and I would appreciate it if some one could educate me what is going wrong: PGError: ERROR: relation "categories_tips" does not exist : SELECT "categories".id FROM "categories" INNER JOIN "categories_tips" ON "categories".id = "categories_tips".category_id WHERE ("categories_tips".tip_id = NULL ) the viewer part: 4: <%= text_field :tip, :title %></label></p> 5: 6: <p><label>Categories<br/> 7: <%= select_tag('categories[]', options_for_select(Category.find(:all).collect {|c| [c.name, c.id] }, @tip.category_ids), :multiple => true ) %></label></p> 8: 9: <p><label>Location<br/> 10: <%= text_field_with_auto_complete :tip, :abstract %></label></p>

  • Ruby - Nokogiri - Parsing XML from memory and putting all same name node values into an array.

    - by r3nrut
    I have an XML I'm trying to parse from memory and get the status of each of my heart beat tests using Nokogiri. Here is the solution I have... xml = <a:HBeat> <a:ElapsedTime>3 ms</a:ElapsedTime> <a:Name>Service 1</a:Name> <a:Status>true</a:Status> </a:HBeat> <a:HBeat> <a:ElapsedTime>4 ms</a:ElapsedTime> <a:Name>Service 2</a:Name> <a:Status>true</a:Status> </a:HBeat> <a:HBeat> I have tried using both css and xpath to pull back the value for each Status and put it into an array. Code is below: doc = Nokogiri::XML.parse(xml) #service_state = doc.css("a:HBeat, a:Status", 'a' => 'http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/OpenAPI.Entity').map {|node| node.children.text} service_state = doc.xpath("//*[@a:Status]", 'a' => 'http://schemas.datacontract.org/2004/07/OpenAPI.Entity').map(&:text) Both will return service_state = []. Any thoughts or recommendations? Also, consider that I have almost identical xml for another test and I used the following snippet of code which does exactly what I wanted but for some reason isn't working with the xml that contains namespaces. service_state = doc.css("HBeat Status").map(&:text) Thanks!

  • Where to put a piece of code in Ruby on Rails?

    - by yuval
    I have a post controller that has many comments. The post model has a field called has_comments which is a boolean (so I can quickly select from the database only posts that have comments). To create a new comment for a post, I use the create action of my comments controller. After I create the comment I need to update my post's has_comments field and set it to true. I can update this field from the create action of my comments controller, but that doesn't seem right - I feel that I should really be using the post's update action, but I'm not sure if it's right to call it (via send?) from the create action of the comments controller. Where should the code for updating the post be? Thank you!

  • how to convert webpage apostrophe (&#8217;) to ascii 39 in ruby 1.8.7

    - by maninwarren
    That's pretty much it. I'm using Nokogiri to scrape a web page what has ’ ; characters in it, and I can't figure out how to do the conversion. here's what I tried: str.gsub(/&#8217;/,"'") str.gsub("&#8217;","'") str.gsub("GÇÖ","'") # that's how it looks when I do a puts (In the above, there's no space between the ’ and the ";", but if I don't put the space in, SO converts it to an apostrophe -- the cruel, cruel irony!) I'm sure this is covered somewhere, but couldn't find the solution here or on the web. TIA

  • How do I recursively define a Hash in Ruby from supplied arguments?

    - by Sarah Beckham
    This snippet of code populates an @options hash. values is an Array which contains zero or more heterogeneous items. If you invoke populate with arguments that are Hash entries, it uses the value you specify for each entry to assume a default value. def populate(*args) args.each do |a| values = nil if (a.kind_of? Hash) # Converts {:k => "v"} to `a = :k, values = "v"` a, values = a.to_a.first end @options[:"#{a}"] ||= values ||= {} end end What I'd like to do is change populate such that it recursively populates @options. There is a special case: if the values it's about to populate a key with are an Array consisting entirely of (1) Symbols or (2) Hashes whose keys are Symbols (or some combination of the two), then they should be treated as subkeys rather than the values associated with that key, and the same logic used to evaluate the original populate arguments should be recursively re-applied. That was a little hard to put into words, so I've written some test cases. Here are some test cases and the expected value of @options afterwards: populate :a => @options is {:a => {}} populate :a => 42 => @options is {:a => 42} populate :a, :b, :c => @options is {:a => {}, :b => {}, :c => {}} populate :a, :b => "apples", :c => @options is {:a => {}, :b => "apples", :c => {}} populate :a => :b => @options is {:a => :b} # Because [:b] is an Array consisting entirely of Symbols or # Hashes whose keys are Symbols, we assume that :b is a subkey # of @options[:a], rather than the value for @options[:a]. populate :a => [:b] => @options is {:a => {:b => {}}} populate :a => [:b, :c => :d] => @options is {:a => {:b => {}, :c => :d}} populate :a => [:a, :b, :c] => @options is {:a => {:a => {}, :b => {}, :c => {}}} populate :a => [:a, :b, "c"] => @options is {:a => [:a, :b, "c"]} populate :a => [:one], :b => [:two, :three => "four"] => @options is {:a => :one, :b => {:two => {}, :three => "four"}} populate :a => [:one], :b => [:two => {:four => :five}, :three => "four"] => @options is {:a => :one, :b => { :two => { :four => :five } }, :three => "four" } } It is acceptable if the signature of populate needs to change to accommodate some kind of recursive version. There is no limit to the amount of nesting that could theoretically happen. Any thoughts on how I might pull this off?

  • Why learn Perl, Python, Ruby if the company is using C++, C# or Java as the application language?

    - by szabgab
    I wonder why would a C++, C#, Java developer want to learn a dynamic language? Assuming the company won't switch its main development language from C++/C#/Java to a dynamic one what use is there for a dynamic language? What helper tasks can be done by the dynamic languages faster or better after only a few days of learning than with the static language that you have been using for several years? Update After seeing the first few responses it is clear that there two issues. My main interest would be something that is justifiable to the employer as an expense. That is, I am looking for justifications for the employer to finance the learning of a dynamic language. Aside from the obvious that the employee will have broader view, the employers are usually looking for some "real" benefit.

  • Ruby - Is there a way to overwrite the __FILE__ variable?

    - by Markus Orrelly
    I'm doing some unit testing, and some of the code is checking to see if files exist based on the relative path of the currently-executing script by using the FILE variable. I'm doing something like this: if File.directory?(File.join(File.dirname(__FILE__),'..','..','directory')) blah blah blah ... else raise "Can't find directory" end I'm trying to find a way to make it fail in the unit tests without doing anything drastic. Being able to overwrite the __ FILE __ variable would be easiest, but as far as I can tell, it's impossible. Any tips?

  • What software should i use to work with Ruby?

    - by paranoid_pedlar
    I've only ever learned to "program" with notepad when I was learning to create batch files in Windows. I would appreciate if you can explain to me the benefits of working with an IDE over a text editor or vice versa. Please don't give emotional responses or argue someone else's suggestion/advice. I use Linux primarily. Also, I would like to be able to make programs that can be used in Windows, but programmed in Linux. Thanks.

  • How can I loop through each of the days of a given week in Ruby?

    - by Angela
    I am defining monday and friday using the following: @monday = Date.today.at_beginning_of_week @friday = 5.days.since(@monday) But I actually need, for any given day, to loop through Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and take that date and put the output into a column. <th>Monday</th> <th>Tuesday</th> etcetera A given row, for example, would be: <tr><td>value(monday)</td><td>value(tuesday)</td><td>value(wednesday)</td></tr> This is where value is a method that takes args date. What's the cleanest way to do this? Thanks.

  • In Ruby, is there are better way of selecting a constant (or avoiding the constant altogether) based

    - by Vertis
    Not sure the title fully describes the problem/question I'm trying to ask, sorry. I'm One of my fellow developers has created classes as such: class Widget attr_accessor :model_type ... end and: class ModelType MODEL1 = "model1" MODEL2 = "model2" MODEL3 = "model3" end Now he wants me to convert a retrieved string "MODEL1" to the constant. So that when he is referencing that model elsewhere he can use ModelType::MODEL1. Obviously I've got to convert from the string I'm being given with something like the following: case model_type when 'MODEL1' @model_type = ModelType::MODEL1 ... end I feel like this is clunky, so I'd like to know if there is a better DRYer way of providing this kind of functionality.
