It seems when I grab some hierarchical ActiveRecord structure that there are quite a few hits to the database. I improved this using the :include option to flesh out as much of the structure as possible. Even so, it seems that ActiveRecord does not map the reciprocal sides of a relationship (e.g. parent-child) with unique references to...

I have a person model and a quotes model. Each person can have many quotes associated with them, which in turn has things like Author, Text, Url associated with them. In practice really only one person has a quotes object but all people could potentially have one. I'm trying to have a dirt simple bulk moderate tool on quotes. As in, use...
I have an app that uses subdomains for each 'account'. From what I have read it is good practice to "Tie all top-level requests off the current account (subdomain)". e.g. def find_users @users = @current_account.users end Simple enough. But when I start having deeply nested routes, I can't use shallow routing without losing the s...

I am posting a .zip file from the iPhone to a Rails server using an NSURLRequest. The problem is that the content-type of the zip file is lost in-transit. When I upload the same zip file from a web-browser to Rails, the content-type is preserved. This leads me to believe it's related to the way I'm sending it from the iPhone. Does anyone...
