Subject: Helpers in 0.9
Message-ID: <86cad1660802011106p3fbf6a7dk1ccc611b9ff98ce5@mail.gmail.com>

I would like to start moving the helpers over into 0.9, I figure that
is something even I can do. But before I start I wanted to ask around
and see if these will be staying in merb-core, or if they should be
moved off to -more.

I want to start with the url helper and then get the js and css
helpers. I think these should stay in core personally. After that I
will probably try and get merb_helpers working, which I am assuming
will be moved to -more or stay a standalone gem.

Is there a trick to using control_for in forms?  I've been trying to
make a simple form with a couple of text fields and I keep getting a
unknown method error.

Thanks!

There is a patch that never made it in for some reason.

Message-ID: <2afc99be0802070850m1019776fgde8df667bdc4fc17@mail.gmail.com>

Is there an agreed upon method for handling exceptions thrown by
something outside of Merb?  For example, DataMapper now throws a
DataMapper::ObjectNotFoundError when a record isn't found in the db.
I'd like to catch these exceptions and raise a C:E:NotFound exception
instead, but without having to wrap a lot of code in begin/rescue/end
blocks.

Thanks,

Mike Irwin

I had tried using params[:exception] in the internal_server_error
method but it just returns
Merb::ControllerExceptions::InternalServerError.

I converted the rails geokit plugin to a merb plugin today.  Anyone
interested in testing it out?  It seems to be working great for me.

If so, where should I put it?  I don't have a blog up or anything
right now.  Been meaning to do that, but haven't had the time.

Thanks to everyone that replied to me today about the merb_geokit
plugin.  I can see that there are a few people out there besides me
that would like to use it.

I went ahead and put the code up on a project page on google.

http://code.google.com/p/merb-geokit/

I still have to write specs for it.  I'd also like to port over that
acts_as_mappable portion to work with Sequel as I really like that
ORM.  But, that will have to come with time as I'm pretty committed to
activerecord in the project I'm using this on.  Perhaps when sequel's
new model relationships are done.  They look pretty neat right now in
trunk.

Anyway, this looked like it was a pretty easy port, but I could have
missed something.  So, let me know if you find bugs.

Just a quick email to say hello to the list (& get it into my contacts!).
My name is Doug, I'm UK based, and I'm just starting to learn Merb.
I've been using Ruby & Rails for about 3 years, and so far really like
Merb's approach.
So hello again!

the door, so be sure and pull the github repositories and try it out.

I like using the annotate models plugin in rails, so I ported it to merb.

http://code.google.com/p/merb-annotate-models/

Simply adds a raketask to run it.  It only works on activerecord right
now, this was a direct port.

I'm running Merb 0.5.3 with Test::Unit. When I run 'rake test' it
seems to be using the development environment as shown by the output
here:

I also noticed that the database is not wiped between test runs and
old test data remains present in the database. I could not find
anything in the Rake tasks which cleared the test databases.

Am I running on old code that is causing these two issues or am I
missing something else?

Hi,

I am creating a web framework for Merb. I would like to route all requests
to the framework controller that will be inside the lib directory.

How can I do that? And also, can someone tell me what should I do to be able
to find that info by myself instead of bugging you guys here?

Thanks very much!

Thanks Doug!

I actually found the answer myself, after some source code exploration. The
lib directory is in the load path, so controllers inside there will be
loaded as well.

The stuff in the ruby world is all poorly documented. The source code API
docs does not help either.

This makes it very difficult to get started.

Thanks for your help!

request.session.delete ?

Looking at the source anyways, seems like it would work.

That did not work, Ezra!

Being very objective: I am building a web framework to run inside Merb, so I
want the main controller to be the framework controller.

module Menta
   module Core

       class Controller < Application

           def sayHello
               @hi = "Hello there!"
               render :layout => :none
           end
        end

    end
end

This is inside lib/Menta/core/controller.rb

Inside route.rb I tried everything:

:controller => 'Menta::Core:Controller'

:controller => 'menta/core/controller'

:controller => 'menta/core/Controller'

include Menta::Core

Nothing will work, please advice!

Thank you very much!

Sorry, it actually works like:

r.match(/\.mtw/).to(:controller => 'menta/core/Controller', :action
=>'service')

Thanks and sorry for anything!

Subject: adding action to a resource
Message-ID: <e9e3ad7b0802191011i7fab80exa46296c03132f91e@mail.gmail.com>

This question is for merb-core 0.9

What is the best way to add an action to a single resource?

Suppose I have an account resource for the current_user and I wanted
to add an activate method to it.  Would it require something like
this?

  r.resource :account do |a|
    a.match('/activate').to(:action => 'activate')
  end

Or, is there a quicker way to do it?

Also, is there any way to get a named_route out of that?  So, I could
have something like :activate_account?

Or, should I be pulling that out into its own resource?  Any suggestions?

Thanks
Dusty Doris

I bugged you guys with some crazy questions, but finally the 0.3b release of
MentaOnRuby is available.

MentaOnRuby is a port of the Mentawai Framework to Ruby on top of Merb.

More info:

http://blogs.mentaframework.org/posts/list/15.page

I hope that people will help and it will grow.

Thanks to the Merb team!

Hi -- when I try to use the 'merb' command with the test environment in any
way, I get the following error:

<ERROR>

Can anyone advise on what I might be getting wrong, here?
I can run the same command with the production and development environments.
Cheers,
   Doug.

It seems like you need "merb-test" gem... do you have it installed?

Subject: Skip Rails goes direct to Merb, what book necessary?
Message-ID: <837f1cb0802290115y6cf5ece9oed417e95a2f2a74a@mail.gmail.com>

Hi,

While I've been known and used ruby since the first pick axe book
reviewed in slashdot,
I somehow missed the rails bandwagon. Partly because the plural model madness
and at that time my client web server doesn't support ruby.
Now the opportunity comes, and I want to use merb instead of rails.

So for people like me that want to learn Merb quickly, is there any
book about Merb?
I doubt it, given the newness of framework.
Or should just read rails book and try to map the concept to merb?
If it is then what book?

Thanks,

I seem to remember sequel being the merb community's first love; then a
sudden shift to datamapper. What prompted the shift to datamapper? What are
the merits of each ORM?
