Wow great, it would be simpler to add many columns for details of a product (Like color, size, etc) in a shopping cart app, no need to use MongoDB or CouchDB

I have tried some plugins to clean my views, I have used draper https://github.com/jcasimir... and cells https://github.com/apotonic... but did not like much the way it's implemented, draper is cool but does not work fine for some cases like a Dashboard, I really liked ryan bates approach https://github.com/ryanb/ra....
Great post Harold.

One thing that I have found recently is two way data binding for Backbone there are two projects that I found interesting (http://rivetsjs.com/, https://github.com/kmalakof... ) but I favor rivetsjs for it's simplicity I have posted a simple example here http://boriscy.github.com/b...

Re: How to decrease coupling in your controllers & views with decent_exposure for better maintainability

This gem works great for CRUD, but what about having service objects or decorators or more complicated controllers could you show a more advanced example.

How can I perform complex queries that are using can be, wouln't be better to just create a one to one relation to other table that holds all the required attributes. Can be must work fine if you are using it on 1 or 2 attributes (fields) but I would like to know how it performs in situations where you have many attributes like 5 or more.

Re: Writing my first RubyGem - CanBe - Mark Starkman

This is a rought example:

class Account < ActiveRecord::Base
# name, amount
has_one :account_detail, include: :account_detail, autosave: true
delegate :balance, :balance=, :total, :total=, to: :account_detail

def initialize(attrs={})
attrs_account_detail = {}
[:balance, :total].each {|k| attrs_account_detail[k] = attrs.delete(k) }
super
build_account_detail(attrs_account_detail)
self
end
end

class AccountDetail < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :account
#attr_accessible :balance, :total
end

Of course you must set config.active_record.whitelist_attributes = false, it's better to use strong parameters.

I've been using schemas for an app and this is by far the best way I have seen to separate and make migrations more viable.

why not just

class OrderCompletion < Struct.new(:order)

class OrderCompletion
# Delegates methods to order
delegate :method1, , :method2, to: :order

def initialize(ord_id)
@order_id = ord_id
end

def order
@order =|| Order.find(@order_id)
end

Re: Tagging With ActiveRecord and Postgres - Monkey and Crow

boriscy — Thu, 09 May 2013 09:17:23 -0000

This is great!, I would like to store all tags in a table tags, so all tags can be presented for adding to a model, but How can I change the tag 'spiny' to 'SPINY' and update this in all models?

Re: Tagging With ActiveRecord and Postgres - Monkey and Crow

boriscy — Thu, 09 May 2013 14:23:03 -0000

The suggestion to save all the ids is great, it would not be difficult to change the UI if you had a many to many relationship and allows to migrate to arrays witth ids.

Re: User Registration using Form Objects in Rails - Panther Software

boriscy — Tue, 14 May 2013 10:08:08 -0000

Yeah that is the way to go, I would change the

def unique_username
if User.where(:username => username).any?
errors.add(:username, 'has already been taken')
end
end

and also why not use SecureRandom.urlsafe_base64(len) instead of your random_string method

Re: Devise – a fully featured authentication mechanism for Rails Applications

boriscy — Tue, 25 Jun 2013 09:52:06 -0000

Devise is great and has many plugins that add functionality but I prefer to spend time on authentication because it's a central part of your app especially if your app is not small. I have used devise and my client asked me for a feature that devise did not have and there weren't any plugins to accomplish the task, you get in trouble and end up with a solution that might not be elegant and it's harder to implement.

Fat model is more accepted but it's also bad :)
