I'm curious if anyone has any leads for me on this: I have a business app that we're building, that could benefit from some out of the box reporting services. Looking for reports that can be created and customized by the end user, without (too much) developer support. Think crystal reports / MS Access reports, but better and all web b...

My ActionMailer involves generating a report and,storing it into a HTML file and sending it as a HTML attachment. I wanted to give it some styling , so I added inline styling that gets written into the HTML file everytime the report is generated . But the styling does not reflect in the attachment. Interestingly, the generated report wh...
I'm running a Rails app on the Heroku Stack (complete with Memcached, DJ Asynchronous workers, MongoDB persistent storage). Right now we use Twitter Oauth as the only authentication option on our site. (We plan to branch out to FB connect, OpenID, and/or Email/password eventually). Ruby/Rails apps, as you probably know, don't support c...

I'm looking for how others typically organize their partials for a polymorphic resource. Example: I have Image which is polymorphic and depending on what is imageable, I want to display things slightly different. I have a partial images/_image and can call render imageable.images. My current mindset is to have my image partial check w...
I have successfully integrated facebook connect in my rails app with authlogic. The problem is that if try to update the profile details of the facebook user there is a validation error that the password field cannot be blank. To solve the above issue, I added following to the User model. before_validation :update_authlogic_config ...
Hi, My problem is the following: I have the models events and music_types, connect via hmabtm join table. If I call now MusicType.all in my event controller I get a complicated query for each music_type I have. Similar to: SELECT music_types.id FROM music_types INNER JOIN join_events_music_types ON music_types.id = join_event...
I've got a fancy-schmancy "worksheet" style view in a Rails app that is taking way too long to load. (In dev mode, and yes I know there's no caching there, "Completed in 57893ms (View: 54975, DB: 855)") The worksheet is rendered using helper methods, because I couldn't stand maintaining umpteen teeny little partials for the different sor...
I have a rails code that sends emails. Following is in my controller: def create @users = Users.find(:all) @sub = params[:sub] @body = params[:body] @index = 0 @users.each {|i| index++; Notifier.deliver_notification(@users.email_address, @sub, @body, @users.unsubscribe_link);} flash[:notice] = "Mail was sent to ...

When running Rails 3 RC with Ruby 1.9.2.rc2 under RVM I keep getting a very large number of errors from the MySQL driver bundle that look like this: /opt/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-rc2/gems/mysql-2.8.1/lib/mysql_api.bundle: warning: already initialized constant MysqlRes /opt/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-rc2/gems/mysql-2.8.1/lib/mysql_api.bu...
I've been doing ruby and rails for a long time but am a newbie when it comes to the more dynamic elements (currently jrails and jQuery), so it's entirely possible I'm missing something. That said, I've got a page where multiple elements need updating from multiple sources. For example, a dynamic header comes from one source and 5-6 d...
I don't know how to initialize information in a model before it is saved. For example. I have a model called Car, and it has the attributes wheel_size, color, etc... I want to initialize these attributes depending on other factors for each new car. This is how I'm doing it right now. Class Car < ActiveRecord::Base before_save :in...
I have some trivial markup that looks like the following: <li class="someclass"> <=% t'model.attr' %> </li> Is there a trivial way to comment that out? Just wrapping <!-- --> around the block will still leave the ruby code available to the template. This means I have to comment out the HTML and Ruby specific code separately. What's...
named_scope :all_public, lambda { |users| { :conditions => ["visibility = ? || (visibility = ? && user_id = ?)", Shared::PUBLIC, Shared::PRIVATE, users] } } that works nice for one user, but is there a way to modify it to work where users is an array of user ids? ...

I have a folder in the localhost linked to the public folder (/Users/david/Sites/demo/public to localhost/demo), I have permissions set to read write execute for the group and the group set to _www. I have the directory set to: <Dire...
I have experience programming dynamic websites using both php and perl driven CGI code, (both on apache web server on *nix systems, though that shouldn't matter). I do not have too much exposure to other technologies for web creation, but I frequently hear hailing and railing towards them from all forms of developers. (The most I've he...
I hit a wall today with rcov + Rails3. I am developing my Rails3 app using Ruby 1.9.2-preview3. rcov and relevance-rcov do not work with Ruby 1.9.2 yet. I can't find any fork of rcov that does yet either. It wasn't that big of a deal since I could easily switch over to Ruby 1.8.7 using rvm --default 1.8.7; rake test:coverage. So the...
Both privacy and users are arrays. I've taken out some logic to show the important stuff. named_scope :non_employees_and_beloning_to_users, lambda { |args| privacy = args[0] users = args[1] { :conditions => ["(visibility = ? && user_id = ?)", privacy, users] } } but basically, the above generates the below, and when t...
