I have an app that heavily relies on dates. There is a moderately expensive calculation that is needed to set these dates, based on the current date. As far as each request is concerned, these dates are constants -- they don't change once created -- but they do change throughout the week. The dates are used in both controllers and models...
I'm thinking of upgrading a current Rails 2.3.8 / Ruby 1.8.6 app to Rails 3 / Ruby 1.8.7. Seeing that Rails 3 has been out for a month now, are there big issues that developers have ran into upgrading 2.x app besides the expected some gems aren't supported yet, deprecation warnings / methods, etc? Are there major stability issues with Ra...
I want to learn enough simple/practical queuing theory to model the behavior of a standard web application stack: Load balancer with multiple application server backends.

Background: Test drivers for rails that can test AJAX functionality (e.g. Selenium, EnvJS, akephalos etc) don't support transactional fixtures. I'm using Machinist and looking to do Capybara testing so I need some way to clear the test database after each test. Truncating every table in the test database is really slow (this is what the ...
Hello, Currently my links in Rails are using link_to as follows: <%= link_to project.name, project %> Which makes something like: <a href="/projects/1">Project 1</a> I'm working to implement an AJAX app with deep linking so instead of the above, I want the output to be (with a #): <a href="#/projects/1">Project 1</a> Is there a way...

So I'm pretty puzzled by this one. This works in development mode and had worked in production mode before, but I just got this hoptoad error that said this: An error has just occurred.

As part of learning ruby/rails, I'm trying to implement http://github.com/professionalnerd/simple-private-messages into my application from scratch, instead of just installing the plugin. (I know, causing myself trouble but it's a good learning experience.) I created the model, and the associations seem ok and I can create new messages ...

I have an existing rails application/website that I want to add a blog to. I would like to access it by www.existingapplication.com/blog so I was thinking it would need to be some kind of plugin or engine or something. Does something like this exist? The main thing is that it can't be a standalone rails application, it has to be an ad...
As much as I love rails, I've always hated dealing with dates in an html form...especially when the date isn't an object's property. The select_date helper is nice, but it always generates this: <select name="date[year]" id="date_year"> <select name="date[month]" id="date_month"> <select name="date[day]" id="date_day"> And I can't fi...
I'm working on an application where the end user defines what columns a database table should have based off column names in an Excel spreadsheet that gets uploaded or just by manually defining them before uploading the spreadsheet. Is this something that AR and MySQL could handle or am I better off using mongodb or couchdb? In the tr...
