[Rails] To translate this query to railsway

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

Hi
I have the tables

users, roles, memberships( join table between users and roles. Between
users and roles there is has_many :through relation ship)

privileges, permissions (join table between roles and privileges.
Between roles and privileges there is has_many :through relation ship)

privileges table entries like
1 add_user
2 delete_user ,.....

roles tables entries like
1 admin
2 participant,.....

Now to find whether a given user(with id=2) has a privilege like
'add_user' I wrote a query like

select memberships.id from memberships inner join permissions on
memberships.role_id=permissions.role_id where memberships.user_id=2 and
permissions.privilege_id=(select id from privileges where privilege_name
='add_user');

And I get the correct result. Now I would like to know how I can
write the above query in an activerecord style.Please help

Thanks in advance
Tom

[Rails] Re: seed_fu and has_many :through

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

Hi Colin

Suppose I have the development phases like phase1,phase2, etc. So
for example in Phase1 I have to seed data to say table1 (rake
db:seed_fu) And it is deployed.
Now again in phase2 again I have to seed data to table2 . Then also to
sseed data I run
rake db:seed_fu

But when ever I run this command it seeds data to table1 (once
more) and table2 (for the first time). Is n't it? I think I can answer
your question. But could you please give answer to my original questions
posted in this thread.

Thanks
Tom

Thanks for the help Jeffrey but I still get the same error that I posted
above. I altered your code to this:
@find = Product.find(:all, :conditions => ["title LIKE '#{name}'"])
and got it to work when I enter the full name again but when I add in
the % signs it tells me:
@find = Product.find(:all, :conditions => ["title LIKE '%#{name}%'"])
malformed format string - %R

Any suggestions on why the % doesn't work?

@find = Product.find(:first, :conditions => ["title like '?'", "%#{name}%"])

This code is untested, but I would expect to work.

[Rails] find conditions issue

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

I am making a search to look through my database at a string that I
enter into a text field. I got it to work properly if I enter in the
exact title but I wanted to see if I could find database entries with
similar titles.

I currently have this code that works:
@find = Product.find(:first, :conditions => ["title = '#{name}'"])
So when I enter in "Rolling Rock" it finds that name in the database

What I want to do now is if I enter in "Rolling" it will still find
Rolling Rock. I tried the following but it doesn't work:
@find = Product.find(:first, :conditions => ["title.include?
'#{name}'"])

I get this error:
ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid in SearchController#results
Mysql::Error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual
that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to
use near 'include'#{name}') LIMIT 1' at line 1: SELECT * FROM
`products` WHERE (title include'#{name}') LIMIT 1

Any clue how to find the entry with only the partial name?

Thanks for any help!

[Rails] overriding active record methods

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

Hi,

My application is running fine but now I had an requirement like
when somebody tries to delete the record from database using delete or
delete_all I should not delete the record rather I should set the
delete flag to 1. There are many model objects and there are many
places I am using delete and delete_all method. I dont want to touch
all the places rather I want to override the delete method of
ActiveRecord::Base and also when application tries to get the records
from database it should get only records those the delete flag set to
0. For this I have to override the base find method too. But I dont
know how to override and where to override, and I dont want to add the
overridden delete method in all the model objects at the same time.
Please suggest the best solution for this. I am almost struck with
this. please please help me on this....

Thanks,
Ramu.

[Rails] switched to a has_many :through, now User can't be blank error

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

I just changed from a normal has_many :blogs, belongs_to :user
relationship to a has_many through relationship. I created a new
model (subscription) and belongs_to'd it both blog and user, and set
up their has_many :subscriptions and their respective through
association. However, now when I go to create a new blog, I keep
getting a "User can't be blank" error. In my blog's create action,
I'm doing:

current_user.blogs.create

Is that the problem? Somehow the current_user's id isn't matching up
to the user_id column in the subscriptions model? It mapped correctly
before. I thought I might not have to pass in the current user, so I
tried:

Blog.create

but I got the same error, "User can't be blank".
I then thought maybe I had to allow its attr_accessible for some
strange reason, but still no dice. What am I doing wrong?
Big thanks in advance.

[Rails] Re: Can the .read method execute any files?

Thank you Frederick.
That's what I was thinking (hoping).

@pepe
I do check it's MIME type before uploading, but the file is actually
never saved. So as long as .read, or parsing, won't trigger the exe/
ruby/php script, then I think I'm ok.

Re: [Rails] Routing optimisation

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

This is probably best done with CSS... ie max device width. However, you could leverage the format option in rails. Normally you get things like .html, .js, .xml as pretty standard. In your case, the "variant" could just be a format (iPhone is a pretty typical one). Basically add another view file, like display.js.erb or display.iphone.erb or display.tall.erb. You may need to define the mime-types for the non-standard ones.

[Rails] trying to update one collection_select with the selection of another

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

Hello,
I've seen numerous tutorials on this but have yet to get anything
working. It's been about 5 days, and I am getting a little frustrated,
so here goes

Here is the model:

items has_many inventories
inventory has_many locations
locations has_many warehouses

Here is the view:

<%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %>

<% form_for (@item), :url=> {:action => "create", :id => @user.id} do |
i| %>
<%= i.text_field :name %>
<%= render :partial=>'getlocation' %>
<%= submit_tag 'Submit' %>
<% end %>

getlocation.rhtml

Location: <%= collection_select :inventory, :location_id,
@locations, :id, :streetadrees1 %>
<br>

<div id="inventory_location_id"> Warehouse location: <%=
collection_select :inventory, :warehouse_id, @warehouse, :id, :name
%></div>
<%= observe_field("inventory_location_id", :frequency=>
0.025, :update => "inventory_warehouse_id", :with =>
'location_id', :url => { :action => 'getlocation' } ) %>

And the controller
def new
@location= Location.find(:first, :conditions=>['primaryloc=?', '1']
@locations = Location.find(:all)
@warehouse = Warehouse.find(:all, :conditions=>['location_id=?',
@location.id])
@item = @business.items.build
end
def getlocation

@location = Location.find(params[:location_id])
@locations = Location.find(:all)
@warehouse = Warehouse.find(:all, :conditions=>['location_id=?',
@location.id])

render :partial => 'getwarehouse'

end

Results: The javascript does pass to the params to the server when the
location select menu changes, but the warehouse doesn't seem to
collect the new data, and update its list. Any ideas? Thanks in
advance. (and yes, I need to use observe field, a totally client side
solution will not work for my purposes).

[Rails] Re: Updating records

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

Hmm, I understand what you are saying, and that is indeed what I tried
to do originally but because I am not loading the edit page first I am
pretty sure I cannot use the form_for method. The form_tag that I am
using appears to parse the fields correctly however the data is not
being processed correctly on the backend...

Parameters: {"commit"=>"Update", "action"=>"update",
"barcode"=>"123456789", "checkout"=>"1", "controller"=>"books"}

I am able to type the barcode in and hit update but I am being taken to
the update page rather than just processing the update method. I know
it is reading the hash correctly because if I change the barcode I am
getting a nil value error. Like you said, my form is simple (this is in
my index.erb.html file),

<% form_tag(:action => "update") do -%>
<fieldset>
<legend>Process Return</legend>
<label>Barcode</label><%= text_field_tag 'barcode' %><br>
<label>Check Out?</label><%= check_box_tag 'checkout' %>
</fieldset>
<p>
<%= submit_tag "Update" %>
</p>
<% end -%>

You have already seen my controller; there isn't much here so I must be
doing something pretty stupid... Thanks,

Well, I can understand the fact that value1 and value2 should belong in
the query string. But lets state that those values are necessary to be
able to use the REST interface, why not putting them along in the url
then?

It would be nice also in the aspect of pritty urls.

Does anyone else know a workaround?

You don't need to do anything explicitly - just find :all, :conditions
=> ... will use the index if needed (you may have been looking for
find_by_xxx_and_yyy though)
The index on person_id is usually superfluous - when you have a
multicolumn index then any left prefix of that index is also an index
ie the index on [:person_id, :club_id] can be used as an index on just
person_id

If you are not using ActiveRecord and think the view helpers are
rubbish and don't want to stick to the conventions, I am interested in
knowing what benefits you are getting from rails. (No criticism
implied, we are all entitled to work the way we want to.)

Just use the same technique as on the edit page but miss out the
fields that you do not wish to change. Then submit to the existing
update action, you do not need to change it as update_attributes only
changes the fields that are provided, and leaves the others unchanged
(I think that is correct, someone will correct me if I am wrong).
Depending on how similar the required view is to the normal edit view
you may even be able to use the same one, just hiding the fields you
do not want.

By the way form_for is the conventional way now, rather than form_tag.
Your edit view will likely be using that unless you picked up the
code from an old tutorial or book.

[Rails] Ruby on Rails Jobs Available in New Orleans

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

I am an IT recruiter with TEKsystems. I'm working with a client here in
New Orleans that is looking to bring on several entry level Ruby on
Rails developers. I'm looking for anyone that is a Ruby novice all the
way up to 5 years of experience. They have short contracts available if
you can't commit long term and they also have 3 month contract-to-hire
spots available. It's a really great company to work for and they have a
great working environment (picture working at Google). I would love to
speak with anyone that might be interested!

Thanks!

[Rails] How to use find method on table with two column index

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

I created an index with person_id and club_id but I can't figure out
how to properly access it (doesn't show up in the find_by... lists)

Can someone provide me a sample find statement to best use this index

Thanks.

class CreateMembers < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
create_table :members do |t|
t.integer :club_id
t.integer :person_id
t.text :comment
t.string :status
t.string :member_type

t.timestamps
end

add_index :members, :club_id

I am still stuck with this. Does anyone knows if this is the expected
beavior for Rails? Should respond_with on update really return an

[Rails] Re: Overriding default image, stylesheet and javascript paths...

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

The reason I didn't use Rails 2 was because of too much convention. (I
didn't want to use ActiveRecord, for one thing.) There is a point
where too much convention starts to inhibit what I do and what I want.
It might be fine for others, but that's why I prefer some level of
configuration with sensible defaults rather than a method where a path
is hardcoded. In general, I find that hardcoding something like that
isn't good practice.

I'm finding that the view helpers are probably the weakest area in
this regard. It's not a biggie though. Monkey patching has fixed the
problems for now and when I have time on the weekend or something,
I'll see about making some modifications and submitting actual
patches. (There are a few other areas in the view helpers to inject
some things I don't much care for that require similar methods.)

This isn't necessarily purely about convention, especially when you're
integrating Rails into an existing infrastructure. Symlinks might do
the job... but I'm not in love with the idea. (And let's face it, I'm
a control freak about certain aspects of my apps, plain and simple.)

[Rails] Re: Custom resource routes

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

I didn't see anything like that in Rails Guides.
Of course you can overwrite resource routes but you will lose those
helpers.
I think you can either be Restful or not. You can't go both ways. If
you are Restful, you obey the rules. That's the whole point IMHO.
Other people can understand the structure of your resource without
knowing the internals of your application. Rails can guess the
structure and create helpers for you. That's the bright side.
And from the Rest point of view value1 and value2 belong exactly in
the query string IMHO.

[Rails] Updating records

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

So I would like to be able to update a record without having to load the
edit page. Lets use checking out a book as an example. From the front
page of my application I would like to be able to have a form field
where I can enter a record id and select one of a couple of check boxes
and then hit submit which will update the associated record with the
action selected by the check box (check out, check in, etc). I am
assuming I need to use a form_tag but I am not sure how to go about
writing the controller and I am assuming I will need to do some custom
routing.

def update

@barcode = params[:barcode]
@checkout = params[:checkout]

@book = Book.find(:first, :conditions => {:barcode => [@barcode]})

@book.update_attributes(params[:book])

end

[Rails] Custom resource routes

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

Hi all,

this might be a dumb question, but how can you produce custom resource
routes?

Lets say you want to add extra parameters in your url but you want your
url to stay pritty?

edit_resource_path(:param1 => :value1, :param2 => :value2) => don't need
an id in edit.
new_resource_path(:param1 => :value1, :param2 => :value2)

This might produce something like
resource/new?param1=value1&params2=value2

But the thing I want is more like resource/value1/value2/new

Is there a way to overwrite the custom resource routes?

thank you in advance

Re: [Radiant-Dev] [Proposal] Join forces to deal with extensions and Rails3

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

I think this is a wonderful idea. In my walk-throughs of new Rails 3
code, I've noticed a number of things that Rails now has . Count me in
for help.

I'd like to throw out an idea (which may require a new thread, but I'll
start it here since it's closely related): Radiant/spree as a plugin
gem. I have a very large upcoming project. It needs a CMS, but it also
needs functionality that Radiant isn't the best choice for. Currently,
I'm forced to write two apps, which doesn't sit well with me.

Here's my hypotheses on the benefits of using a plugin gem:

* Passenger memory savings with smart spawning.
* Built-in support for extension dependencies.
* radiant command offload to rails -m <radiant-install-script>
- easy integration of "radiant-more" via install scripts?
- radiant-more install script repository, similiar to ext.radiantcms.org?

Thoughts? Criticisms?

[Rails] Re: Join tables

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

I see what your saying. Maybe it was just the late night but I was
having a problem getting my head around it. Really the best time for a
join table is in a habtm relationship. Then it would be a good idea.
Like If something was taggable. Would be a good example of a need for
a join table.

Thanks for your replies. I hope it was just a momentary lapse on my
behalf cause I know I knew that before lol.

But it works when I run it on the console:
I18n.l Time.now

I can't think of anything that could cause that problem and Google

Re: [Radiant-Dev] [Proposal] Join forces to deal with extensions and Rails3

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

I really like the idea of pulling the commonalities between radiant
and spree into a new gem. Especially if it means it would be possible
to write extensions that support both applications, and if it would
allow radiant to leverage the work that spree has done implementing
themes. I don't think I'll have any spare cycles to contribute to the
effort, but I am excited by the potential. I look forward to playing
around with the result.

That's because you're not letting ActiveRecord see those attributes.
Take out this line:

attr_accessor :value, :start_date, :end_date

You should already have these columns in your table from your
migration. attr_accessor is when you want your object to temporarily
keep track of data that is *not* stored in your table.

Hope this helps,

[Rails] Re: Can the .read method execute any files?

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

If you are planning on just uploading the file and you don't want to
upload executable files you should check for that before allowing the
upload.

Re: [Rails] incompatible character encodings: ASCII-8BIT and UTF-8

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

I've been struggling with the same issue a few times, and the solution
that worked for me was to use a different mysql driver: ruby-mysql

# in config/environment.rb:
config.gem 'ruby-mysql'

# or in Gemfile:
gem 'ruby-mysql'

The encoding must also be set in config/database.yml:
adapter: mysql
encoding: utf8

[Rails] Rails3, Datamapper and select

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

Hi all,
I'm testing rails3 with Datamapper on a simple project.

I've 2 classes :
class Societe
include DataMapper::Resource

property :id, Serial
property :nom, String
property :adresse, Text

has n, :clients
end

class Client
include DataMapper::Resource

property :id, Serial
property :prenom, String
property :nom, String
property :telephone, String
property :courriel, String
property :adresse, Text
property :view_only, Boolean

belongs_to :societe
end

I created them using rails generate scaffold (except belongs/ has of
course).

I've then have in the folder "view" 5 erb templates per class, and
especially one (_form) used by "new" and "edit" templates.
In order to select the society, I have added in client's _form a
select:

<%= form_for(@client) do |f| %>
<%= f.error_messages %>
...
<div class="field">
<%= f.label :societe %><br />
<%= f.select(:societe_id, @societes.map{|s| [s.nom, s.id]}) %>
</div>
<div class="actions">
<%= f.submit %>
</div>
<% end %>

In creation mode, everything is allright and the customer is created
with the link to its society
But when I edit, I have the following error:

Showing /home/.../app/views/clients/_form.html.erb where line #30
raised:

undefined method `societe_id' for #<Client:0xa51833c>

Extracted source (around line #30):

27: </div>
28: <div class="field">
29: <%= f.label :societe %><br />
30: <%= f.select(:societe_id, @societes.map{|s| [s.nom, s.id]}) %>
31: </div>
32: <div class="actions">
33: <%= f.submit %>

Any idea why it's working with empty "client" and not with existing
one?

Thanks in advance,

Sylvain

Re: [spree-user] Re: Paypal Express 500 internal server error

by rubyonrailsin 0 comments

So I've merged Peter's fix [1] which solves the error when PayPal is the only defined Payment Method.

The next problem is forcing some kind of validation / disabling the "Save and Continue" button when PPE payment method is selected.
