Yes,
text.gsub(/\/\* start \*\/(.*)\/\* end \*\//im, replace_with)

Slightly simpler
text.gsub(%r{/\* start \*/(.*)/\* end \*/}im, replace_with)

gsub takes regex, not strings

text.gsub(/#{start_tag}(.*)#{end_tag}/, replace_with)

Special characters do need to be escaped in start_tag and end_tag, but in this
case only the asterisks, not the slashes.

thanks!


BTW, is it possible that during the replace, it leaves the start/end tag? 
Currently it is replacing it also, I want the comments to be there after the replacement.

Ruby on Rails

In my current project, there are business and security requirements that prevent certain values from being exposed. I was looking for a way to specify which attributes in a model should be protected. This is what I've come up with and I would love feedback as to whether or not it's a valid solution and how I could improve it.


Basically, I'm following the attr_accessible style and defining an attr_private method for setting specific attributes (or methods) as private.

http://codereview.stackexchange.com/questions/16064/protecting-certain-model-attributes-from-being-exposed-in-an-api

Your thoughts are much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Ruby on Rails

Hi all,

I have two models, Item and Bid


class Item
  include Mongoid::Document
  field :name, type: String
  has_many :bids 
end
class Bid
  include Mongoid::Document
  include Mongoid::Timestamps::Created
  field :bid, type: Float
  belongs_to :item  
end

In views/prices/index I would like to list all items in a table and for each item put a field next it in which people can enter a number. At the bottom of the form should be a submit button for all records.

How is this best achieved?

There's plenty of code out there explaining how to add, for instance, several questions to one survey but I couldn't find an example that shows how to add one new record for each of of an existing element of a collection. 

Thanks...

Ruby on Rails

I've setup my application to connect to multiple databases, but am running into a few issues in production.  I also have a few questions.

First, I'm using rails 3-2-stable, because I was running in to a prepared statement bug, which is only fixed in this branch [1].  I'm not up for using master at this time, unless I absolutely need to.

Second, the pool size for the default and non-default database is 1, this is because I'm using unicorn.  Also, because establish_connection on multiple databases does not use the pool size [2].

The issue:

I have 4 unicorn workers.  After I start the app and rapidly refresh on a few pages, the default database sees 4 connections.  The non-default database sees only 1.  And for the lifetime of the app, the non-default database only sees one connection. I also think this is slowing down the website.

1) What would cause the application to create only one connection for the non-default database, provided I have 4 workers?  When I create a sample app on my local machine that uses the same configs with different code, I actually get 4 connections for both.  See my unicorn file here:  https://gist.github.com/3807073.  All my non-default database models inherit from something that looks like:

class OtherDb < ActiveRecord::Base
  self.abstract_class = true
  establish_connection "other_#{Rails.env}"
end

2) What's the proper way to setup a unicorn.rb file for multiple databases with `preload_app true`, since I have establish_connection in the OtherDb model and need to establish_connection to the default in the after_fork?

3) Should I be looking into a different rack web server?  My queries are sub 500ms.

Look for tutorials on javascript and after you have mastered those it
is probably a good idea to move to jQuery.  For using ajax then google
for rails ajax and you will find many examples.

As a beginner I suggest you work right through some good rails
tutorials such as railstutorial.org (which is free to use online).
This will introduce you to the basics or rails, including ajax.  Make
sure that any tutorial you use is for rails 3 and that you have the
correct version of rails installed.

I told you the necessary steps in a mail above. What exactly is not working?

I had neither Rails nor Passenger experience at all when I sat it up
the first time. I was finished in a couple of minutes.

So please tell us, which steps have you done on your WEBSERVER to get
it up and running, which messages did occur, and what is written to
apaches error log when trying to open your domain? What do you see in
your webbrowser then? Are there any messages in
RAILS_ROOT/log/production.log? What do they say?

I want to design a websile using RoR. So I am able to link domain name
with rails app/public folder. But application does not working as to
run it we have to start it using rails server command then it starts
application at idaddress:3000.

So how can I link my website to that domain?

you want to run with apache and passenger? Please try and explain
exactly what you are trying to achieve.

Ruby on Rails Saturday, September 29, 2012

Hello

I made a quite simple ruby web app. It uses scrubyt and mysql to store
results as cached results. The program is quite simple. It shows a
form, you enter a value and the controller makes an external http
call, parse the data and show the result for the user.

But I have a problem. I have the requirement to let a ruby program
from command line more or less run the same function that on web is
been handled by the form controller.

How can I re-use the web app when doing a standalone program callable
from command line? I dont want to recode as all the app is already
functioning. I am requested to do a ruby program that is called like
this:

ruby ./client.rb some_param

Where should I put this client.rb? How do I use the code from the

Ruby on Rails

Hello ROR community at large,

I am seeking some help for a fairly simply Ruby On Rails/Facebook
project which could help greatly in an intense local anti-fracking
campaign in Colorado.

I am a ROR beginner, but do not have the expertise to knock out this
project quickly; but I have been a database developer for over 20 years,
and can provide excellent support. I am familiar with Engine Yard,
Heroku and github, and hope this project can be done using all open
source, free services.

The need is this: my local anti-fracking group badly needs an online
database to help us support a political campaign against fracking in the
local area. All we need is (1) a data entry form to create a record, and
then (2) a form to allow us to edit a record, then (3) a form to allow
us to download a select list from the database in a csv file.

All of the surrounding communities where I live in Lafayette, CO are
about to be invaded by gas wells getting drilled within the city limits
of our towns, such as Boulder, Longmont, Erie, Lyons, and outlying parts
of Denver, such as Commerce City and Aurora. This is known as the Front
Range, and we are about to become the national battleground of the oil &
gas industry versus alternative energy -- and I need your help.

If you don't know about fracking, but want to find out, go search for
watching the full length documentary GASLAND (gaslandthemovie.com), or
watch "The Sky Is Pink" on YouTube, a short sequel.

Basically, we a simple online database (described above) on a website,
plus a button from our Facebook page for East Boulder County United (see
http://www.facebook.com/EastBoulderCountyUnited?fref=ts)

to the database.

If anybody is willing to help me with this, please let me know at
caseyrick@gmail.com

Thank you for your time,
Rick Casey
Lafayette, CO

When your Apache is configured to listen on port 80 AND apache is
configured to serve a certain VirtualHost via Passenger, THEN no port
in the URL is needed.

The documentation of passenger itself is very straight forward. The
only mistakes you can make is to "name" the VirtualHost wrong, set the
Passenger pathes wrong or put the DocumentRoot into a wrong directory.
If you have none of this wrong, everything should work.

Hint 1: All I say now is for PRODUCTION!
Hint 2: ServerName has to be the domain you bought, or any subdomain
that is resolved to the same IP-Address.
Hint 3: RailsEnv shall be production
Hint 4: PassengerRoot and PassengerRuby should point to the root-dirs
in which the appropriate binaries are located.
Hint 5: After changing apache config don't forget to restart it, can
take hours to find that damn mistake, been there, done that…
Hint 6: Remember to touch that file passenger needs to recognize the
updated app and restart it, after you changed something, also an error
that will eat hours of your life…
Hint 7: Last but not least: Learn to use a deploy-tool like Capistrano
or Vlad, it will make many things easier and do things automatically
that I personally would forget with every deploy (see Hint 5 and 6 :)
)

When none of these Hints help you, you should learn how to find the
various logs apache provides, there will be questions about their
contents then.

I'd imagine it's the default for a Passenger installation, but it's been a
long time since I configured one.

What is not working for you at this point? What *exactly* ?

If you're using Passenger, it should be listening on port 80.

Why would you want people to have to add a port # to the URL of
your site?

Tests are for you, not for the project.

The are "needed" to make it maintainable, not to make it work.

But as a rule of thumb: A better testcoverage means a much less chance

Believe me it is, I had to learn that the hard way a couple of years ago!

Setting up a webserver that it works is one thing, setting it up that
it works AND is secure another thing!

I did some misconfigurations that time and opened a big security hole
in my webserver. No one discovered it in the first place, but about
half a year later, someone used that hole to hack my server and abuse
its processing power for spam mail sending and crawling the web for
more email-addresses. Another problem were the leaked database and its
contents.

Since my hoster realized the high CPU use after a couple of minutes he
shut down that host. I was lucky about that. Since all what happened
was my fault of misconfiguring the server I had to pay fees! But since
the host was shut down very early I wasn't punished for spammail but I
had to pay a fee for the leaked userdata. It summarized to about 2500
€ (about 3000 USD).

Paying someone who knows how to configure such a webserver would have
cost only a fraction, and if I had have a bigger userbase it would
have been much more money!

Don't repeat mistakes that others did. Make your own, but make them different!

Probably better not to do it this way. Have just one database but add
fields to differentiate which records in each table belong to each
user. The user will not be able to tell the difference between that
and your suggested solution.

If not many things in configuring apache can differ, at least the files are located somewhere else. Also the needed dependencies for passenger will have other package names.

But since it seems that you not really know what you are doing, I really would suggest you that you search someone who knows and pay him some big cks to set everything up. Or else use heroku or another well known rails hosted. You could then use the domain of your server with a redirect to heroku.

You can set the title in the controller methods, or you can set it in a

Your "problem" has nothing to do with RoR or Passenger; it's that you
apparently don't know how the Internet works.

Please go read something about the Domain Name System (DNS).
Then register a domain name for your project so name servers can
find it.

In the meantime, for your own testing purposes, put the name you
want to use and the server's IP address in your own /etc/hosts file.

Yes for helping me :-)

I want to build a website using RoR and for that I have to start it
for all time and to do that I want to use passenger.
Now what can I do for that?
Or their is another way to start rails app and link it to domain(website).

I have server(which is Linux based) for that work and all I have to do
through console mode. So help me according to that.

Not sure about existing gems, not having looked at this in Ruby or
Rails, but having solved it in another language: you create an entry in
your database with a token and a timestamp.  When a user sends the token
back, you check the current time against the token's associated
timestamp, and reject it if the token is unknown or the timestamp is too
old.  (Periodically, you can garden your database to delete any entry
with an old timestamp.)

Ruby on Rails

When you say domain. Com in the apache configuration than only apache is aware of this domain. Firefox just uses the standard way and try to look up that name via DNS. Since it can't find anything it says that there is nothing. You have to use local host instead or add that domain to your /etc/hosts file.

But only touch hosts when you know what you are doing. In any other case change your apache conference to use local host and use local host in the browser.

But when developing local it is better to use rails s or a passenger standalone and start it via console when needed. You only need to configure mod.rails local when you want to serve an intranet Page. And that you should only do when you know what you are doing again.

But if you insist, I think we can help you to get it running.

Ruby on Rails Friday, September 28, 2012

I have a Task management applciation where users can add task and edit
it. I am using single form for it. When I render this form for edit and
new, I need to assign the different form title for each. Say "Edit task"
and "Assign new task". How do I implement it. I am new to rails. Please
help.

Stop bumping your question. That is really annoying. 

You haven't posted your code, so how do you expect anyone to give you a meaningful reply? 

Also, if you have done a google search on reading excel files in ruby, you would have known of at least two libraries which read Excel files. Please google next time before posting. If you can't find any results, it does not necessarily mean they don't exist. It just means you are incapable of looking for what you want.

And that does not mean you spam mailing lists with inane questions. 

Learn to ask questions the smart way. Here is a resource for that: http://www.catb.org/esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

Not sure about existing gems, not having looked at this in Ruby or
Rails, but having solved it in another language: you create an entry in
your database with a token and a timestamp. When a user sends the token
back, you check the current time against the token's associated
timestamp, and reject it if the token is unknown or the timestamp is too
old. (Periodically, you can garden your database to delete any entry
with an old timestamp.)

Hello All,

I want to start Rails3 app with apache and passenger but I am not able
to do that. I have followed some links but for me its not working or I
am not getting it properly.
Here the links that I have followed:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RubyOnRails#Configure_Apache

Can anyone help me to use passenger and apache with rails3?
You can also provide any useful link for that or any tutorial.

Thanks in advance.

I have a person has many questions model,  I have accepts_nested_Attributes set up properly.  the question from the db show up, but the index is not incrementing:


<%= f.fields_for :person_questions do |pregunta| %>
          Questions: <br/>
          <% Question.all.each do |question| %>
            <%= render 'questions/question_type', :pregunta => pregunta, :question => question, :f => f %>
          <% end %>
        <% end %>
        <div class="control-group">
          <%= f.label :date_of_problema, :class => 'control-label' %>
          <div class="controls">
            <%= f.datepicker :date_of_problema, :class => 'date_select' %>
          </div>
        </div>


partial:

<div class="control-group">
  <%= pregunta.label question.name, (question.label_text unless question.label_text.nil?), :class => 'control-label' %>
  <div class="controls">
    <%= pregunta.send(question.data_type, :option_selected ) %>
    <%= pregunta.hidden_field :question_id, :value => question.id , :class => "#{question.data_type}" %>
  </div>
</div>

Is there a way to get the attribute names to be correct?

The questions come from the db.
chrome inspector:
<input id="person_person_questions_attributes_0_option_selected" name="person[person_questions_attributes][0][option_selected]" type="checkbox" value="1">
<input id="person_person_questions_attributes_0_option_selected" name="person[person_questions_attributes][0][option_selected]" size="30" type="text">

Been a while, I had the closing bracket in the wrong spot:

send needs all the params, it was erroring on , if i put the closing bracket right after the data_type or name
<%= person_question.send(question.data_type.to_sym, question.name, :class => 'text_field') %>

I would like to send a link to a user (via email) that expires after a period of time.

When a user takes a certain action, they are emailed a link that allows them access to a certain resource.
What I want to do is make it so that the link will work for a period of time (say 48 hours) and then will
no longer work. I would like the link to look like:

http://www.mysite.com/stuff/b39a8b314588d04e23f15ceb026196c5
or
http://www.mysite.com/stuff/resourcea?b39a8b314588d04e23f15ceb026196c5

Rails would need to decrypt the url (it doesn't need to be cryptographically secure, but it
should be non obvious), determine if the timeframe is still valid and serve the resource (or not).

I would rather that the timeframe be included in the link instead of having to do a db lookup.

Are there any gems/plug-ins out there for this? How would I go about creating it from scratch?

Matt
