  • Multi level menu, active links css highlight. (Ruby on Rails)

    - by klamath
    Site structure: / /products /products/design /products/photo /about I want to see parent menu item also highlighted by CSS, when child is active. (When 'design' or 'photo' is active 'products' should be highlighted too.) I'm using this for child and simple urls: <li class="<%= current_page?(:action => 'design') %>"> <%= link_to_unless_current 'Design', :design %> </li> For 'products' checking should be like: <%= current_page?(:action => 'products') || current_page?(:action => 'design') %> || current_page?(:action => 'photo') %> But triple || is not right, and it's become complicated. I saw a helper, like this one: def current(childs) if current_page?(:action => childs) @container = "active" else @container = "inactive" end end Which is used by: <%= current(:photo) %> So, how to put all my 3 checks for 'products', 'design', 'photo' in one helper? And make possible to use something like <%= current(:products, :design, :photo) %>

  • How do I defer execution of some Ruby code until later and run it on demand in this scenario?

    - by Kyle Kaitan
    I've got some code that looks like the following. First, there's a simple Parser class for parsing command-line arguments with options. class Parser def initialize(&b); ...; end # Create new parser. def parse(args = ARGV); ...; end # Consume command-line args. def opt(...); ...; end # Declare supported option. def die(...); ...; end # Validation handler. end Then I have my own Parsers module which holds some metadata about parsers that I want to track. module Parsers ParserMap = {} def self.make_parser(kind, desc, &b) b ||= lambda {} module_eval { ParserMap[kind] = {:desc => "", :validation => lambda {} } ParserMap[kind][:desc] = desc # Create new parser identified by `<Kind>Parser`. Making a Parser is very # expensive, so we defer its creation until it's actually needed later # by wrapping it in a lambda and calling it when we actually need it. const_set(name_for_parser(kind), lambda { Parser.new(&b) }) } end # ... end Now when you want to add a new parser, you can call make_parser like so: make_parser :db, "login to database" do # Options that this parser knows how to parse. opt :verbose, "be verbose with output messages" opt :uid, "user id" opt :pwd, "password" end Cool. But there's a problem. We want to optionally associate validation with each parser, so that we can write something like: validation = lambda { |parser, opts| parser.die unless opts[:uid] && opts[:pwd] # Must provide login. } The interface contract with Parser says that we can't do any validation until after Parser#parse has been called. So, we want to do the following: Associate an optional block with every Parser we make with make_parser. We also want to be able to run this block, ideally as a new method called Parser#validate. But any on-demand method is equally suitable. How do we do that?

  • Methods specific only to an instance? What are they called in Ruby?

    - by daremarkovic
    I know there are "instance methods", "class methods" but what are these types of methods called, for eg: s1 = "This is my STRING!" def s1.m1 downcase end p s1 # => "This is my STRING!" p s1.m1 # => "this is my string!" What type of method is the "m1" method called on the s1 "instance" of the "string" class? It's really weird because I didn't know this was possible at all if I try: s2 = "This is ANOTHER string" s2.m1 # => Won't work! Which kind of makes sense, but not sure why defining methods like m1 on instances on a class are useful at all.

  • How do I achieve virtual attributes in CakePHP (using code, not SQL) as implemented in Ruby on Rails

    - by ash
    Source: http://asciicasts.com/episodes/16-virtual-attributes I'd like to achieve a similar setup as below, but in CakePHP and where the virtual attributes are created using code, not SQL (as documented at http://book.cakephp.org/view/1070/Additional-Methods-and-Properties#Using-virtualFields-1590). class User < ActiveRecord::Base # Getter def full_name [first_name, last_name].join(' ') end # Setter def full_name=(name) split = name.split(' ', 2) self.first_name = split.first self.last_name = split.last end end

  • Is it possible to deploy a Ruby app on a plain clean Passenger setup?

    - by Folletto
    I'm thinking to something really similar on what you can do with mod_php: drop an application in some way inside Apache and making it run with Passenger, without adding anything inside httpd.conf (no vhost, nothing except the basic Passenger configuration). It's something very similar to Wordpress or many other frameworks: just unzip/svn checkout it inside a folder and run it. I know that it's possible with CGI and FCGI, but I'm wondering if it's also possible to tap in the speed of Passenger. I've tried fiddling with the Rack instructions on the official website trying to find a specific .htaccess and config.ru configuration, but nothing so far. I know it's not common, but... is it even possible?

  • In Ruby, how do I make a hash from an array?

    - by Wizzlewott
    I have a simple array: arr = ["apples", "bananas", "coconuts", "watermelons"] I also have a function f that will perform an operation on a single string input and return a value. This operation is very expensive, so I would like to memoize the results in the hash. I know I can make the desired hash with something like this: h = {} arr.each { |a| h[a] = f(a) } What I'd like to do is not have to initialize h, so that I can just write something like this: h = arr.(???) { |a| a => f(a) } Can that be done?

  • What data (if any) persists across web-requests in Ruby on Rails?

    - by Daniel Beardsley
    I decided to use the singleton design pattern while creating a view helper class. This got me thinking; will the singleton instance survive across requests? This led to another question, Which variables (if any) survive across web requests and does that change depending on deployment? (Fastcgi, Mongrel, Passenger, ...) I know that Controller instance variables aren't persisted. I know Constants are persisted (or reloaded?). But I don't know about class variables, instance variables on a class, Eigenclasses, ...

    For example this what I am trying to do, def method_a(condition, params={}, &block) if condition method_b(params, &block) else yield end end and I am trying to call the method like this, method_a(#{@date > Date.today}, {:param1 => 'value1', :param2 => 'value2'}) do end The result is the condition is always evaluated to true. How do I make it work?

  • How can I use && in if in Ruby on Rails?

    - by Angela
    I tried the following && conditional for my if statement and I get a "bad range" error: <% if (from_today(contact, call.days) == 0..7) && (show_status(contact, call) == 'no status') %> Why and how can I fix it? The only other way I could do it was to have a second nested if statement and break it apart...not pretty :(

  • Ways to Unit Test Oauth for different services in ruby?

    - by viatropos
    Are there any best practices in writing unit tests when 90% of the time I'm building the Oauth connecting class, I need to actually be logging into the remote service? I am building a rubygem that logs in to Twitter/Google/MySpace, etc., and the hardest part is making sure I have the settings right for that particular provider, and I would like to write tests for that. Is there a recommended way to do that? If I did mocks or stubs, I'd still have to spend that 90% of the time figuring out how to use the service, and would end up writing tests after the fact instead of before...

  • How can I define the search scope by "this week" meaning Monday - Friday in Ruby on Rails?

    - by Angela
    This is an extension of an earlier question. I realized, what I really want is to go to a URL /report/thisweek and it will do a .find (or named_scope) across contact_emails.date_sent where date_sent is between MONDAY and FRIDAY of the week to which Date.today belongs. In other words, if today is THURSDAY, it will do a search for all emails MONDAY through THURSDAY of this week. Not sure if this is doable or makes sense, but I think that's what I'd ultimately am trying to do. Thanks!
