I think the problem is on line 40 of relationship.rb self.send(:define_method, "#{Private::plural(this_model)}_for", this_model_for) this is sending define_method to the class (in this case Tagging) which creates an instance method, and you want a class method.

Well first of all, I really think you are cutting against the paradigm, I think modeling complex relations between models is outside of MongoDB and similar NoSQL data stores wheel house. You are effectively trying to turn that glue model into a join model, and document oriented data stores don't really do joins. I'd suggest that what you are really doing is not the equivalent to habtm, but to has_many :through, and as a side comment I'm not sure why you're habtm method takes a this_model argument, since presumably that's always going to be derivable from the name of self. I think there are two common approaches to many-to-many relationships in mongoDB (and other document oriented data stores are probably similar): 1. In each model have an array of Mongo::ObjectIDs advantage: you can do a direct query to get the collection of 'associated' documents from either end. disadvantage: you need to manage doing the appropriate updates to both sides when adding or removing a relationship between two documents 2. Have an array of object ids but only in one object advantage: no need to sync updates disadvantage: finding the collection from one side is easy with just one query, from the other side you need to fetch to collection of ids then do a second query to get those documents. Cooking up a join 'document' as you are doing seems to be a bad idea. You need to do at least two queries from either side as far as I can see. Since the updates are atomic only on single document types, you run the risk of concurrency control issues. >From my brief look, one of the things that I like about MongoMapper is that it seems to use conventions which are more in line with the prevailing wisdom on schema design for mongoDB 1.

So what is the difference between a bi-directional has_many :through relationship and a habtm relationship in this case? I'm not storing anything in Tagging except the references to Node and Term. When I originally wrote these methods, I wasn't sure if/how to derive the this_model argument from self. This is on a short-term list of things to fix. > I think there are two common approaches to many-to-many relationships > in mongoDB (and other document oriented data stores are probably > similar): > > 1.

I might be persuaded to change my mind, but for now the glue model works. I'm not concerned about performance, because speed is highly touted as a selling point for NoSQL, and one extra query isn't going to make much difference, in my opinion. > 2.

I considered this approach as well, but quickly dismissed it because the relationships are not equally balanced, and going in the "ugly" direction is a lot of work including manually looping over every item in a potentially large collection. This would be horribly inefficient. > Cooking up a join 'document' as you are doing seems to be a bad idea. > You need to do at least two queries from either side as far as I can > see.

Regardless suggestion number one above seems to have the same issue. > >From my brief look, one of the things that I like about MongoMapper is > that it seems to use conventions which are more in line with the > prevailing wisdom on schema design for mongoDB > > ? 1.

Honestly I like relational databases, and I'm not overly impressed with NoSQL. I wanted to use a relational database, but in doing so I would have to make non-trivial compromises regarding the Node model. Nodes really need a schema-free store. Currently making schema-free database behave more like a relational database is less pain than going the other direction. My current approach is the most palatable solution I could think of. Unless somewhere there is a relational database that allows for tables to be optionally schema-free. That would be my ideal choice. > In contrast, MongoMapper's competitor MongoID tries to look more like > AR including things like a very AREL like query api. ?I'm a little > more familiar with that, albeit in a role of trying to convert an app > from mongodb/mongoid to AR/Sql, and all I can say, anecdotally is that > that approach seems to generate more WTF moments. I tried both Mongoid and MongoMapper and the only reason I went with MongoMapper was because I was able to make it run. -- Thomas Ingram ><> Raving Genius? - foaming at the brain? 919 449.6305 thomas at ravinggenius.com http://www.ravinggenius.com/ http://www.isittheweekendyet.com/ From thomas at ravinggenius.com Sat Aug 7 00:12:37 2010 From: thomas at ravinggenius.com (Thomas Ingram) Date: Sat, 7 Aug 2010 00:12:37 -0400 Subject: [raleigh.rb] STI and generated route helpers Message-ID: My models look something like this: class Node end class Image < Node end class TextBlock < Node end In the nodes/_form.html.haml partial, I have: = form_for @node do |form| / ...

Message-ID: Hello, We're using cookie store sessions on a rails 2.3.5 app, and we're starting to see the session show up as empty for no known reason at infrequent, seemingly random and difficult to reproduce intervals. I'm wondering if anyone has seen anything similar to this or has any suggestions for futher investigation. Do I go digging in the sesson store code? In my most recent occurrence, I was logged in to the app using three different browsers on two machines, for a total of three different sessions. Two browsers were sitting idle while I was actively working in the third. We also have ajax calls that will frequently poll to see if the session has expired, and pre-emptively redirect to the login screen when that happens. We've ratcheted up that poll interval in development as we're trying to determine the root cause of this issue, so all three browser were hitting server at least once per minute. Also, we've added code to tell the difference between an expired session and an invalid session, where and expired session has a expired_at field with a date of before now, and an invalid cookie has no expired_at field at all. All three sessions went invalid at about the same time - within about 30 seconds of each other, based on the ajax calls also reporting invalid sessions. It looks as though the session cookie is good and valid and has the data we expect, but for some reason the session is not getting populated. 99%+ of the time it works as expected, then boom -- breakie. And it seems to break for many different sessions at or about the same time. The debugging code is straightfoward: require 'base64' module DebugSession def debug_session(request, session, logger) request.cookies.each do |k,v| logger.debug("** Request Cookie: #{k}: #{v}"); if k == '_session_id' logger.debug("decoded and unmarshalled cookie: #{Marshal.load(Base64.decode64(v)).inspect}") end end unless request.cookies.key?('_session_id') logger.debug("WARNING: _session_id cookie not found!") end logger.debug("** Session expires: #{session[:expires_at]}") logger.debug("** Session user: #{session[:user]}") end module_function :debug_session end and in the LoginController#check_expired....

It's (still) an Open Space/unconference event driven entirely by the attendees. In the traditional Ruby polyglot spirit, this year we're reaching out beyond just the Ruby language itself. We have Michael Fogus, the author of The Joy of Clojure, attending along with Matt Podwysocki, a strong functional programming advocate, and Chris Williams renowned for his support and love of JavaScript (e.g., he's the organizer of the original JSConf). As a reminder, Ruby DCamp is being held in Prince William Forest Park in Manassas, VA this year and will be free. Day 1 is a Code Retreat and Days 2 and 3 are the usual Open Space event that people have come to know and love. We're population limited to 76 people and are almost full. Hope to see you in the woods! Evan Light
