| Why is valid_date? for now is true, but for tomorrow is false? Posted: 31 May 2016 07:01 AM PDT Doing some validation for dates I found that valid_date? is giving me a false value if the date is in the future (date after current date) but all other dates is true. Example: These return true: valid_date? DateTime.strptime(DateTime.yesterday.strftime("%m-%d-%Y"), "%m-%d-%Y")
valid_date? DateTime.strptime(DateTime.now.strftime("%m-%d-%Y"), "%m-%d-%Y")
But this returns false valid_date? DateTime.strptime(DateTime.tomorrow.strftime("%m-%d-%Y"), "%m-%d-%Y")
Can anyone explain the reason for this? |
| Having trouble with HTTParty (SocketError) Posted: 31 May 2016 07:01 AM PDT I'm learning how to work with HTTParty and API. I'm trying to make a simple query from my RoR app, but every time I have the same error:  My courses_controller.rb looks like class CoursesController < ApplicationController def index @search_term = "jhu" @courses = Coursera.for(@search_term) end end
and the model coursera.rb is class Coursera include HTTParty base_uri 'https:/api.coursera.org/api/catalog.v1/courses' default_params fields: "smallIcon, shortDescription", q: "search" format :json def self.for term get("", query: { query: term})["elements"] end end
I was trying to use another base_uri but it doesn't works. |
| ActiveRecord query in views and helpers in Rails Posted: 31 May 2016 06:59 AM PDT I have the following associations defined in my application: class Person belongs_to :type end class Type has_many :people end
Now, in the new and edit form for person, I need to give a dropdown that will show all the types which will come from the Type model. Now there are two approach to do the same:
1. make an instance variable in controller for types and access that in the form view. class PeopleController before_action :get_types, only: [:new, :create, :edit, :update] def new end def create end def edit end def update end private def get_types @types = Type.all end end
person/_form.html.erb ... <%= f.select :type_id, @types.collect{ |type| [type.name, type.id]} %> ...
2. Making a database query in the person_helper person_helper.rb module PersonHelper def get_types Type.all end end
person/_form.html.erb ... <%= f.select :type_id, get_types.collect{ |type| [type.name, type.id]} %> ...
So, I want to know which is the better approach and why. Note: As per MVC paradigm, controller will provide the necessary data to the views. Neither I am not able to find any difference in the query execution in both the cases nor, I am able to find any good explanation regarding the same apart from the MVC part. |

| How to use devise parent_controller for devise inherited controller but skip for ActiveAdmin devise controller? Posted: 31 May 2016 06:39 AM PDT I am developing Api based application, site.com (Client App), api.site.com (Server App) In my api.site.com, there are passwords, confirmations controller, which are inherited from the Devise controllers. By default Devise parent controller is Application controller, but Devise inherited controllers need to pass through ApiBaseController api_authentication action. So, Devise.rb has following configuration: config.parent_controller = 'ApiBaseController'
Api authentication is working fine now. ApiBaseController sample code: class ApiBaseController < ApplicationController before_action :api_authentication def api_authentication api_key = request.headers['Api-Key'] @app = Application.find_by_api_key(api_key) if api_key unless @app return render json: { errors: { message: 'Something went wrong, contact admin', code: '1000' } } end end end
Now i am using ActiveAdmin, after installing ActiveAdmin i tried to open http://localhost:3000/admin/login on browser, I saw following error response on browser instead of active admin login page: {"errors":{"message":"Something went wrong, contact admin","code":1000}}
I checked the issue, and i realized that active_admin/devise/sessions controller also passed through ApiBaseController. This is because we had set our parent controller to ApiBaseController (config.parent_controller = 'ApiBaseController'). I removed the code and ActiveAdmin worked fine. But passwords, confirmations controller did not passed through the ApiBaseController api_authentication() since i removed the Devise configuration (config.parent_controller = 'ApiBaseController'). So if you guys have understood the problem, please let me know the solution. In summary, i need all the api Devise inherited controllers need to pass through ApiBaseController for api_authentication() check and ActiveAdmin Devise controllers do not need to pass through ApiBaseController. Thanks in advance. |

| How van I allow index only for same profile? Posted: 31 May 2016 07:01 AM PDT My app is a weight loss app. It uses Devise for user authentication. A user has_one :profile (the profile table holds the user_id as foreign key) that stores data like prename, surname etc. and is created automatically when a user signs up. A profile has_many :weights (users of the app should weigh themselves regularly and store their new weight in this table). So far so good. I have the following problem: If a logged in user goes to the index page of the weight controller he sees only his own weights. However, if this user now changes the profile_id in the URL bar he can also see the weights of that other profile (although it is not "his" profile). Additionally, he can now create a new weight, which then holds the other profile_id (which is obviously not his own). What I managed to do is to generally restrict users to edit or destroy weights which do not hold their own profile_id (through before_action :require_same_weight_profile in my weights_controller.rb). My question now: how can I prevent this user (that has a certain profile) to do the stuff described above? I'm sure the answer is pretty simple (I started coding just a few months ago). UPDATE In the meanwhile I found a solution. Unfortunately the suggested solutions in the comments did not work for me. What does work is the following: My update in weights_controller.rb before_filter :require_permission ... def require_permission if current_user != Profile.find(params[:profile_id]).user redirect_to root_path end end
routes.rb Rails.application.routes.draw do devise_for :users resources :profiles, only: [:index, :show, :edit, :update] do resources :weights end

After the successful deployment, when I opened the page in browser, I get the following error. I have been stuck with the following issue for sometime. It looks like Bundler could not find a gem. Maybe you didn't install all the gems that this application needs.

| How to dynamically add text fields on Rails 4? (not nested) Posted: 31 May 2016 04:19 AM PDT I'm very new to Rails and I need to dynamically add/remove input fields on a "form_for" in Rails. I am using these inputs to alter a user's profile. Here's the snippet I want to turn dynamic: <%= f.label :languages, "Languages" %> <%= f.text_field :languages, class: "shortInput", value: @parsed_json_user['user']['languages']%> <br />
I have seen many tutorials using nested attributes (I'm not even exactly sure about what those are) and such but I will not be using models. As you can see, I just want an object with a multitude of values (e.g. array) since I'll be using an API to update the "User" model. I need something like: Languages:
English remove
add new Should I be using fields_for? Or somehow use JS or JQuery? Any help would be appreciated. I searched everywhere for a similar question and haven't found any but if you actually know of or find one, pointing me in the right direction would be wonderful! Thanks in advance |
| Ruby on Rails - Increment by 1 from last object Posted: 31 May 2016 04:10 AM PDT I am building a user gallery application, where user can create albums and upload images to their album. I am using nested forms for images. In my images database, I have a column called sort_order. I want to use sort_order to manage the sorting and showing user, for ex: he is seeing 3 of 12 images, where 3 is number of sort_order and 12 is number of total images in that album. sort_order is integer and default: 0. What I looking for is to increase/increment number of sort_order for each image based on previous sort_order of last image in same album.
For ex: image 1 will have sort_order: 1, image 2 will then have previous images sort_id +1 => sort_order: 2 and so on. How can I make it so after saving the images, I increment by 1 from last objects sort_order. I have been testing with code below, but it just add 1 for all objects: after_create :updating_sort_order def updating_sort_order self.sort_order += 1 end
If there is another way to do it without having the sort_order column, I am open to it. |
| Rails app using existing database MySQL Posted: 31 May 2016 07:00 AM PDT I'm a RoR developer and I'm used to create my own databases using scaffold and such. However I was told to create a rails app to an existing populated database. I Searched and i found this: 1. write config/database.yml to reference your database. 2. Run "rake db:schema:dump" to generate db/schema.rb.

| carrierwaver doesn't save image in postgresql Posted: 31 May 2016 03:36 AM PDT Hi guys I'm using carrierwave on my rails app to upload images from the computer to create new items.. If I create the item without uploading an image, the item will be saved into the database, otherwise it won't. So there's must be something wrong with my settings for the carrierwave. can anyone give me an hand, identifing the mistake(s)?

| Multiple image uploads in Rails from the same form_for? Posted: 31 May 2016 03:17 AM PDT I am having some trouble figuring out how to upload multiple images using a single form in a view. Basically, I have a form for articles on a blog that consists of a title text_field, a body text_area and a file_field for uploading a single picture using Paperclip and S3, which is all working fine. However, I want to add more file_fields to the same form for uploading several different images, because each article needs to have more than one picture. I've been searching for the last three days and reading through some tutorials that seemed relevant, but usually just suggested using 'html: { multipart: true }' at the start of the form or on the file_field itself, but this just gave different versions of the same image, such as :medium, :thumb, :avatar. But I think I may not have been asking the question clearly enough... Does anyone know how to achieve this functionality? If you can point me in the right direction or have any links that will help me to achieve this I will be so grateful that I will get down on my knees and hail you as a coding prophet. Thank you all very much in advance. Let me know if I haven't been clear enough... and thanks again. |

| Testing controller not passing parameter Posted: 31 May 2016 04:08 AM PDT Im currently working on my test cases for ruby on rails and realize that the parameter that i was passing is not being passed to my controller. this is my test case for my controller test "should get addUser" do user_info = User.create_user("TEST1","TEST1") assert_equal(user_info,true,"Assert Failed")
The User.create_user contains def self.create_user(username,password) if username == "" || password == "" and username == nil || password == nil register = User.new({:username => username,:password => password}) end return register.save end
the result also shows 2 assertions but i only declare one assert. |

| render the view then call the existing AJAX view Posted: 31 May 2016 02:52 AM PDT I don't know how I am going to ask or start my question but what I want is to reuse my AJAX view to other page. I have an existing AJAX view, when I click a link from my sidebar I want to render a new page then call the AJAX view. Please see example code below.

| array usage inside rails remove duplicates Posted: 31 May 2016 04:04 AM PDT I've got this array coming back from a web scrape. Which looks like this: [["formatted_sum_fees", "£5.60"], ["formatted_price", "£46.50"], ["formatted_sum_fees", "£4.50"], ["formatted_price", "£37.50"], ["formatted_sum_fees", "£3.30"], ["formatted_price", "£27.50"], ["formatted_sum_fees", "£3.30"], ["formatted_price", "£27.50"], ["formatted_sum_fees", "£4.50"], ["formatted_price", "£37.50"], ["formatted_sum_fees", "£4.50"], ["formatted_price", "£37.50"], ["formatted_sum_fees", "£4.50"], ["formatted_price", "£37.50"], ["formatted_sum_fees", "£5.60"], ["formatted_price", "£46.50"], ["formatted_sum_fees", "£4.50"], ["formatted_price", "£37.50"], ["formatted_sum_fees", "£5.60"], ["formatted_price", "£46.50"], ["formatted_sum_fees", "£4.50"], ["formatted_price", "£37.50"], ["formatted_sum_fees", "£3.30"], ["formatted_price", "£27.50"]]
So what happens is that it duplicates? So i'm wanting to change the above array to this (it will be different everytime so it'd need to remove duplicates.): [["formatted_sum_fees", "£5.60"], ["formatted_price", "£46.50"], ["formatted_sum_fees", "£4.50"], ["formatted_price", "£37.50"], ["formatted_sum_fees", "£3.30"], ["formatted_price", "£27.50"]
Anything else that exists after this is a dupe. What i'm needing is the fees and the price to be on a var so i can save it down to the database :) Thanks Sam extra Heres the raketask. require "nokogiri" require "open-uri" namespace :task do task test: :environment do ticketmaster_url = "http://www.ticketmaster.co.uk/derren-brown-miracle-glasgow-04-07-2016/event/370050789149169E?artistid=1408737&majorcatid=10002&minorcatid=53&tpab=-1" doc = Nokogiri::HTML(open(ticketmaster_url)) event_name = nil ticket_price = nil doc.xpath("//script[@type='text/javascript']/text()").each do |text| if text.content =~ /more_options_on_polling/ ticket_price = text.to_s.scan(/\"(formatted_(?:price|sum_fees))\":\"(.+?)\"/) byebug end end end end
