Impending Kiko release means everything else goes on the shelf

Posted by Richard White Tue, 14 Mar 2006 23:56:26 GMT

The whole Kiko team, including myself, is working overtime to get the release out the door ASAP. Because of this everything that I have promised people would be coming this week (a new Brighthouse release, a new AjaxScaffold release and some more AjaxScaffold howto articles) is going to be pushed back to early next week. Sorry about this guys but getting the best online calendar out the door is job #1 right now and I hope you’ll agree once its finally released.

    We’ll heres a little Kick of ajaxScaffold… I’ve worked out the guts of generating a parent/child page….Heres the short and easy of it:

    1) create database 2) generate parent ajax_scaffold 3) generate kid ajax_scaffold 4) /app/views/kid/index.rhtml add—:params=>params 5) kid controller add :conditions to list — :conditions=> [“parent_id = ?”,params[:pid]] 6) kid controller set parent_id in new— @kid.parent_id = params[:pid] 7) add link to _parent.rhtml <%= link_to ‘Kids’, :controller => ‘kid’, :pid => parent %> 8) add pid params to kid list.rhtml 9) add element for parent_id to kid _form.html (can be hidden)— <%= hidden_field ‘kid’, ‘parent_id’ %>

    optional: 9) get first parent in kid controller 10) add parent information to kid list—<h2>Kids of <%= @parent.name %></h2>
