Cure for Diarrohea

2011-11-12T21:48:00.012+05:30

3 Months back my daughter(age: 10 months) suffered from Diarrohea.
She was having continous motions. We consulted doctor and he was mentioning to give only ORS(Oral Rehydration Salts - Recommended by W.H.O for Diarrohea) and food(what ever she eats). I searched Internet and I couldn't find any medicine. But the motions were not stoppable. Doctor was mentioning that it will continue for another 2 or 3 days, but not to stop the ORS. We have admitted in the hospital and have given the Fluids because she is not driking the ORS after some time.

Later after a day, one of my cousin mentioned to take some ayurvedic medicine from ARYA VAIDYA SALA - Kottakkal. She has given the below medicine.
Rajyadimastaka churnam - below one year
Dadimastaka churnam - after one year
And we have tried to give some food.

Interestingly with in 2 hours, motions got reduced. And my baby suddenly got Active and started playing. Its really a happy moment after she has become Active.
But still we have continued the ORS because that is the main medicine to decrease the Diarrohea. Even Ayurvedic doctor also mentioned the same thing.

Note: This has worked for my daughter, but still consult both the doctors.

Use of dirty objects

2010-05-26T20:12:00.001+05:30

Some times we wanted to know what are the previous values for an object.
We can track the unsaved attribute changes in Rails.
These can be used before save only.

The below are the methods you can use.
* changed
* changed?
* changes

Eg:
Before Assigning:
user = User.find(1)
user.first_name # => "Naga"
user.last_name # => "Harish"
user.changed? # => false
user.changed # => []

After Assigning:
user.first_name = "Turvi"
user.last_name = "Sri"
user.changed? # => true
user.changes # => {"first_name"=>["Naga", "Turvi"], "last_name"=>["Harish", "Sri"]}
user.changed # => ["first_name", "last_name"]

You can also you the dirty suffixes.
DIRTY_SUFFIXES = ['_changed?', '_change', '_will_change!', '_was']

user.first_name_changed? # => true
user.first_name_change # => ["Naga", "Turvi"]
user.first_name_was # => "Naga"
user.first_name_will_change! # => "Turvi"

NOTE: Once you save this record changed? will become false.

So you can have History as one more table or one more column called update_history as column to store all the changes.

Clone in Ruby

2009-04-25T16:01:00.003+05:30

Clone is help ful for the values changed in the object but not the complete object change.

Let me explain with an example.

take an array
arr1 = ["a", "b", "c", "d"]
let me initiliza arr1 to arr2
arr2 = arr1
puts arr2
=> ["a", "b", "c", "d"]

If I change arr1 values i.e.,
arr1[1] = "z"
puts arr1
=> ["a", "z", "c", "d"]

then see arr2
puts arr2
=> ["a", "z", "c", "d"]

#This wil get changed because the whole arr1 is pointed to one block of memory and the same arr2 is also pointing to the same block. You can check this.
arr1.id and arr2.id which will be same.
puts arr1.id
=> 40972250
puts arr2.id
=> 40972250

Suppose if you want arr2 as the previuos arr1 and arr1 should get changed?

Do this:

arr1 = ["a", "b", "c", "d"]
arr2 = arr1.clone
puts arr2
=> ["a", "b", "c", "d"]

arr1[1] = "z"
puts arr1
=> ["a", "z", "c", "d"]

puts arr2
=> ["a", "b", "c", "d"]

But if you change the whole arr1 to some other values then arr2 will not change.
Eg:
arr1 = ["a", "b", "c"]
arr2 = arr1
puts arr2
=> ["a", "b", "c"]

arr1 = ["z", "y", "x"]
puts arr2
=> ["a", "b", "c"]
arr2 will be same as old arr1 because arr1 memory locaton will be different after the new initilaization.

You can check this by arr1.id and arr2.id
In this case clone is not needed.

More about clone (copied from Ruby book(Dave Thomas, The Pragmatic Programmers))---

clone obj.clone -> anObject

Produces a shallow copy of obj---the instance variables of obj are copied, but not the objects they reference. Copies the frozen and tainted state of obj. See also the discussion under Object#dup .

class Klass
attr_accessor :str
end
s1 = Klass.new » #
s1.str = "Hello" » "Hello"
s2 = s1.clone » #
s2.str[1,4] = "i" » "i"
s1.inspect » "#"
s2.inspect » "#"

Changes from Rails 1.2.3 to Rails 2.2.2

2008-12-20T17:13:00.004+05:30

After a long time we have changed one of our project from Rails 1.2.3 to Rails 2.2.2 .
Steps to follow for migrating.

1. Get the latest Instant Rails
2. gem install rails (This will get the latest version (now its 2.2.2))
3. gem update --system (This will update your gems)
4. rake rails:freeze:edge (This will freeze your application to the new version. This will require svn installed)

Later start the server, then you will definitely face some problems with your old application.

The problems(with solutions) I faced while migrating are,

1. Error: undefined method `cache_template_extensions=' for ActionView::Base:Class

When you try to start the server, you will get this error.
cache_template_extensions is deprecated. so you need to remove config.action_view.cache_template_extensions = false in config/environments/development.rb

2.
*******************************************************************
* config.breakpoint_server has been deprecated and has no effect. *
*******************************************************************

This warning will appear, you need to remove config.breakpoint_server = true in development.rb

3. NameError: uninitialized constant Inflector
This will appear if your environment.rb or any other place including your old plugins consisits of
Inflector.inflections do |inflect|

end
This is actually deprecated. If you find any of these issues in plugins kindly update your plugins with your latest versions.

4. NameError: uninitialized constant Rails::Plugin::Dependencies
This will come if you use any old gems, Actually Dependencies are deprecated to ActiveSupport::Dependencies, so you can change this in your code.

These are the main issues i found while starting the server. But after starting the server you will find so many issues to fix. You need to fix them accordingly with Rails 2.2.2.

How to get emails from your india times account to your mobile?

2008-10-29T19:45:00.004+05:30

Its quite easy to access your emails from India Times on your mobile than you think. You can actually READ, REPLY, REPLYALL right from your mobile itself.

Open indiatimes and login with your user name and password.

After logging into your account, Click Preferences tab. There you can find Mail Tab.

In that tab select Forward a copy to: and type your mobee.in email adress. ie., 9198xxxxxx@mobee.in and click save. See the below image for reference.

Thats it. mobee.in takes care of the rest.
Then automatically your email will be sent to your mobile as SMS.

Clearing the Email in the logs in Ruby on Rails.

2008-10-25T19:33:00.003+05:30

Are your logs printing the complete email when you are sending using Action Mailer in ROR?

By default your Action Mailer will print the log when an email is being sent. So to Avoid this add the following line in envionment.rb where you initialize.

ActionMailer::Base.logger = nil

This should look like below.

ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :smtp
ActionMailer::Base.perform_deliveries = true
ActionMailer::Base.raise_delivery_errors = true
ActionMailer::Base.default_charset = "utf-8"
ActionMailer::Base.logger = nil #this will prevent you by printing in the log.

So this will prevent by printing in all the logs.

Mobee.in Status

2008-10-25T12:19:00.003+05:30

Mobee.in registrations are happening like Sehwag scoring runs in cricket :). We actually not yet started the marketing. Even though registrations are very fast with out any ads/marketing. Hope we will get more number of users after we start the real time marketing.
The response from the registered users is "WOW", "AWESOME", "FANTASTIC" etc., :)
Our team is very happy for the starting success and need to see more and more happiness.

Sending Email with attachment in Ruby on Rails using Gmail Account

2008-10-04T15:39:00.009+05:30

Its very important to send an email with attachment in Ruby on Rails. Generally most of the applications use this.

I'll write you step by step procedure.

For sending an email you need to to specify the mailer details in environment.rb

require 'smtp_tls' #this is used for GMAIL . click here to get this file. Copy this file in your lib folder.

# ActionMailer Settings
ActionMailer::Base.delivery_method = :smtp
ActionMailer::Base.perform_deliveries = true
ActionMailer::Base.raise_delivery_errors = true
ActionMailer::Base.default_charset = "utf-8"
ActionMailer::Base.logger = nil #this will prevent you by printing in the log.

ActionMailer::Base.smtp_settings = {
:address => "smtp.gmail.com",
:port => 587,
:domain => "gmail.com",
:authentication => :login,
:user_name => "username@gmail.com",
:password => "your assword",
}

To use ActionMailer, you need to create a mailer model.

$ script/generate mailer SendMail

This will create the model file app/models/send_mail.rb

Where ever you want to call the mailer method,
SendMail.deliver_send_attachment(subject, message, document)

"deliver_ " will deliver the email specified with the method.
"send_attachment" method should be in send_mail.rb (model)
In you models app/models/send_mail.rb
class SendMail < ActionMailer::Base
def send_mail(subject, message, document)
@from = "your email"
@subject = subject
@body['message'] = message #@body["message"] here @message will be the instance variable
@recipients = "some email" #recipient email
content_type "text/html"
@sent_on = Time.now
unless document.nil?
part :content_type => document.content_type do |p|
p.attachment :content_type => document.content_type,
:body => File.open("./public/#{your file name}", 'rb') { |f| f.read },
:filename => document.filename
end
end
@layout = :some layout
end
end

In the above code for the attachment I passed document object, in which content type (image, doc, pdf etc.,)is saved.
generally the content type will be
"application/msword" -> for MSword
"application/pdf" -> for MSword
"image/gif" -> for gif images

Instead of document.content_type you hard code it by the type mentioned above.
eg:
part :content_type => "application/pdf" do |p|
p.attachment :content_type => "application/pdf",
:body => File.open("./public/#{your file name}", 'rb') { |f| f.read },
:filename => "file_name"
end

In your views app/views/send_mail/send_attachment.rhtml
Hi some name,
This is the message <%= @message %>

Yours truly,
blah blah.

This will send an email with the attachment using Gmail.
