Bugs related to Merb-Stack (Merb installed using gem install merb)

• The generated resource controller has few typos (redirection route should use : and not @)

Generated:

  def new
    only_provides :html
    @article = Article.new
    display Article
  end

  def create(article)
    @article = Article.new(params[:article])
    if @article.save
      redirect resource(@article), :message => {:notice => "Article was successfully created"}
    else
      render :new
    end
  end

  def update(article)
    @article = Article.get(article[:id])
    raise NotFound unless @article
    if @article.update_attributes(article)
       redirect resource(@article)
    else
      display @article, :edit
    end
  end

  def destroy(id)
    @article = Article.get(id)
    raise NotFound unless @article
    if @article.destroy
      redirect resource(@articles)
    else
      raise InternalServerError
    end
  end

Should read:

  def new
    only_provides :html
    @article = Article.new
    display @article
  end

  def create(article)
    @article = Article.new(article)
    if @article.save
      redirect resource(@article), :message => {:notice => "Article was successfully created"}
    else
      render :new
    end
  end

  def update(id, article)
    @article = Article.get(id)
    raise NotFound unless @article
    if @article.update_attributes(article)
       redirect resource(@article)
    else
      display @article, :edit
    end
  end

  def destroy(id)
    @article = Article.get(id)
    raise NotFound unless @article
    if @article.destroy
      redirect resource(:articles)
    else
      raise InternalServerError
    end
  end

(fixed in the development branch)

• When generating a resource with multiple attributes such as

merb-gen resource article title:string,author:string

the generated model has a return carriage issue

Generated code:

class Article
  include DataMapper::Resource
 
  property :id, Serial
  property :title, String  property :author, String
 
end

Should read:

class Article
  include DataMapper::Resource
 
  property :id, Serial
  property :title, String  
  property :author, String
 
end

(fixed in the development branch)

• when upgrading from an old merb app, Merb::Config {|c| c[:log_level] = 'debug'} no longer works. You need to change it to a symbol: c[:log_level] = :debug
