Hobo is brand new, so there is very little up to date documentation let alone an entire book. You could print off the docs from the website and reference those instead.

I have a problem that I am sure is actually really simple: I want to add up and return a total price across a m2m association. Using the generic example, I want to be able to add up the total price of all Books based on an Author.

Author
habtm :books

Book
habtm :authors
t.column "price", :integer

Can anyone help me out?

code:

@author = Author.find(params[:author_id])
@total_price = @author.books.inject { |sum, book| sum + book.price }

There's probably a better way to do this that doesn't involve so many behind-the-scenes DB calls but I can't think of it right now...

PHP is probably the worst language to start with. It's got widespread support, but there's so much cruft that comes from not being very well designed in the first place. Go with Ruby or Python.

Well you can either learn RoR which encourages you (but doesn't guarantee you to) use good programming practices and will (after some experience behind your belt) get you working on cool projects with people that (on average, compared to php) know what they doing, and you'll be set to head into all sorts of new directions (the skills you learn apply everywhere, even PHP dev).

Or you can learn PHP, write lovely code (which everyone always does when they start of, but...), never grow out of it, beg for poo poo work from rent-a-coder while competing against half of asia, grow insane with the cluster-gently caress of code you'll usually have to deal with and the people that wrote it, until you eventually decide you either need to take up accounting or learn a new programming skill.

It's not PHP itself that is the problem (... for the most part...), it's the environment that grew around it. It is not always the case, but most PHP 'careers' tend towards nasty, brutish and short.

It also doesn't have to be Rails you start with. Python, Perl, even Java (The Great Satan for most rails peeps) are all much more useful to learn. You could also jump into the really really really deep end and start by learning Haskell. It's not for the faint of heart but if you can gork Haskell, anything else you learn will be a walk in the park. ( it is also somewhat easier to learn haskell as your first language rather then your second or subsequent one).

Author

Out of curiosity, why are you using habtm instead of has_many in this situation? This looks like an instance where an author should have many books and a book belong to an author. Your domain may be a bit different though. Anyway, you should just be able to do the following:

author = Author.find(:first)
price = author.books.sum(:price)

However, you would want to do something like this:

Models:

code:

class Author < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :books do
    def all_books(args)
      find(:all, args)
    end

    def total_price(reload=false)
      @total_price = nil if reload
      @total_price ||= sum(:price)
    end
  end
end

class Book < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :author
end

Controller (figuring you're doing a list of some sort)

code:

before_filter :find_author
private
  def find_author
    @author = Author.find(params[:author_id])
  end

public
  def index
    @books = @author.books.all_books
    @total_price = @author.books.total_price
  end

Your views you would just reference the @books and @total_price objects. This also assumes that you would be looking at your books based on the route of /authors/:author_id/books.

Not sure what reasons you have for making price an integer, but it could be a decimal column as well. See http://pragdave.pragprog.com/pragdave/2006/07/decimal_support.html.

There's also has_many :through, which can let you flesh out the relationship a more than a habtm can.

So I'm thinking of starting a project with RoR but have one question: Is there a suitable way to do user registration, authentication, etc? Granted, I haven't looked into it very much, but all authentication stuff seems to be either the entire site or nothing. What I'd specifically like to do is to protect an admin control panel along with admin-only elements/controls on an otherwise publicly viewable page.

Is this built into RoR and I just missed it? Are there any gems available to do this? How hard is this to implement?

There's a plugin called restful_authentication that's pretty much the standard if you're not going to write something custom. It'll give you all the username/password/login/session stuff, and you can build from that.

If all you need is one admin user then you don't need restful_authentication, this is much simpler and should fulfill your need:

Controller:

code:

  def login
    if request.post?
      if params[:login] == "admin" and params[:password] == "admin_pw"
        session[:logged_in] = true
        redirect_to admin_page_url
      end
    end
  end
  
  def logout
    session[:logged_in] = nil
    redirect_to :action => "login"
  end

ApplicationController:

code:

  def logged_in?
     return session[:logged_in] ? true : false
  end
  helper_method :logged_in?

Then use "if logged_in?" anywhere that you want.

Rails makes me cry when I look at the SQL calls. I mean, it's very easy to get a working application, but then you wonder why it's slow, and it's because it's doing 100 db calls for a 100 item list. Oy.

Given that, I did write a whole website in it, and it has actual users who aren't me. And I haven't touched it in 6 months and it's still working, so not bad.

You're right it's not perfect but you also have to use it properly.

@authors = Authors.find(:all, :include => ["books", {"screenplays" => "movie"}])

If the application is making 100 db calls for a 100 item list then you have forgotten to use eager loading. Now you can loop through, request the author.books or whatever and it won't have to get that information from the database for each one.

Edit: Sorry, not intended to sound mean.

I've been trying to learn Ruby on Rails on and off for a while, and I'm back on an ON kick again.

I'm working on something that I'd want to have a forums auth for; I've written one in PHP before and it requires setting a cookie and setting your own HTML headers and everything (you can't view profiles without being logged in). How would I even begin to try this in RoR?

Also a lot of the AJAX stuff is nice but good lord is it black magic. I follow little tutorials on how to do stuff and it just says "put this here" and I do but I have no idea WHY. I've written AJAX applications by hand before, writing my own xmlhttprequests and response scripts, so I get the mechanics of it but I am having a hard time figuring out how to get to the point in RoR where I can say, "ok I want an AJAX thing to do this, so I'd have to write code with this structure and syntax:".

Start with using the rjs templates and what not. Then start to actually learn Javascript and Prototype. I'm on the second step currently, and while I might not be the best javascript guy, I know what's going on and it doesn't feel like black magic anymore.

And if you ever are wondering why something works the way it does in rails, start reading the rails source code. It's not that scary, I promise.

It's more like, I don't get the logic at all behind the requests and responses. Indeed, I probably need to "get" Prototype more.

And god dammit, I never thought that my problem writing an SA auth would be more with "how do i functioned ruby" than "how do i grabbed something with cookies"

For the curious, here's what I have so far. The page nabbing works great, but I wanted to test my newly-added logic and whatnot. Note that the cookie is copied and pasted directly from the Cookie: line in the HTTP headers when I normally visit a page, on SA all of them. When I wrote a PHP one, I discovered that being selective doesn't work too well. Of course since you could use that to log in as me, I have removed it :v:

code:

module AuthHelper
  
  def authprofile(username, authstring, mode)
    username = CGI.escape(username)
    @cookie = "THIS IS MY COOKIE. THERE ARE MANY LIKE IT, BUT THIS ONE IS MINE."
    http = Net::HTTP.new('forums.somethingawful.com', 80)
    http.start do |http|
      request = Net::HTTP::Get.new('/member.php?action=getinfo&username='+username)
      request.add_field 'Cookie', @cookie
      response = http.request(request)
      response.value
      @page = response.body
    end
    
    if @page.include? authstring
      if mode=="there"
        return true
      else
        return false
      end
    else
      if mode=="there"
        return true
      else
        return false
      end
    end
    
  end
end

The wacky logic at the end is for my future plans to have a "now remove this from your profile" portion and all that, and just have one function handle all of it.

Now I'd love to test it on my ruby script/console deal, but I can't figure out how to invoke it

Should this kind of thing be in Helpers? Oh god MVC :psyduck:

Edit: fixed some syntax after I had a chance to test it, I have to include the helper in script/console :v:

Now I just have to figure out why it returns true no matter what now when it worked before!

Yeah I got rid of mode, it was a dumb idea.

code:

module AuthHelper
  
  def authprofile(username, authstring)
    username = CGI.escape(username)
    @cookie = "MY COOKIE"
    http = Net::HTTP.new('forums.somethingawful.com', 80)
    http.start do |http|
      request = Net::HTTP::Get.new('/member.php?action=getinfo&username='+username)
      request.add_field 'Cookie', @cookie
      response = http.request(request)
      response.value
      @page = response.body
    end
    
    return @page.include?(authstring)
    
  end
end

This seems to work. My only concern is, coming from a PHP background, would this leave any room for the user to put in something stupid and break my app or get me banned without any further filtration?

Edit: Also I must say, I'm impressed. I remember the equivalent PHP code being bigger, clunkier, and a bigger pain in the rear end to figure out; I had to send a WHOLE raw HTTP request, if I recall, or at least I remember it took a while to figure out it wasn't working because of the lack of the proper number of newlines after the Cookie: line, heh.

Edit2: And I confess I mostly lifted the net code from some tutorial or snippet I found and figured out how to add cookies and adjusted it to my nefarious means. In other words, don't ask me what response.value is or what it does, as I don't know. Or even EXACTLY why it's in a do|| loop, as I can only vaguely guess.

instead of this:

code:

Then in application.rb make a private method that does @user = find_user.

Just to make it clear, I'm really hoping for more response to this, as I'm used to being Fort Knox with PHP and I'm not sure what I have to do or how careful I have to be in Rails.

And thanks Wink, making it a Model class sounds like a good idea. RESTzis can pretty much suck it imo, I'm keeping my verbs god dammit. I never liked the stateless nature of HTTP anyway. If you do, that's great, I just don't care and am going to use all the goddamned verbs and session cookies I please.

It looks like I have to set some keyword for my cookie? Where and how do I do that?

A secret is required to generate an integrity hash for cookie session data. Use config.action_controller.session = { :session_key => "_myapp_session", :secret => "some secret phrase" } in config/environment.rb

In other words, stick that line in the config section of your environment file. And change the key and secret values.
