This post was a dupe, my apologies: I didn't see it in the archives because
it was not under my name due to a mistake I made setting up gmail aliasing.
Sorry for all the list spam, but any thoughts?
Thanks,

Hello Radiant Folk!
I'm a Radiant neophyte with a little bit of Rails experience. Thank you so
much for making Radiant such an elegant, usable and slick CMS, I'm very
excited about using it for some upcoming projects.
I've long had a dream of being able to create simple,
hierarchical-navigation based sites using simple scripting or, even better,
YAML/XML etc. to generate the framework and initial content. I'm hopeful I
can figure out a way to do this using Radiant. I've been experimenting with
some approaches using the rails console.
I first tried creating a pages_controller instance then running the new
method after setting the params property. This didn't work due to the use
of the request object in that method. I then
tried adapting that method so it could work as a simple page creation
function. I am running into a " undefined method `stringify_keys!' for
"body":String" message however.
Here's my code:
def new_page(
title,parts,slug,breadcrumb,parent=1,behavior="",layout_id=
"1") page = Page.
new
page.slug = slug
page.breadcrumb = breadcrumb
page.parent = Page.find_by_id(parent)
parts.each
do |part|
new_part = PagePart.new(part[
:name])
new_part.filter_id = part[
:filter_id]
new_part.content = part[:content]
page.parts << new_part
end
page.save
end
then I run
new_page("test automatic", [{:name=>"body", :filter_id=>"Markdown",
:content=>""}, {:name=>"extended",:filter_id=>"",
:content=>""}],"test-automatic","test automatic")
and get the error
NoMethodError: undefined method `stringify_keys!' for "body":String
from
./script/../config/../config/../vendor/rails/activerecord/lib/active_record/base.rb:1506:in
`attributes='
from
./script/../config/../config/../vendor/rails/activerecord/lib/active_record/base.rb:1354:in
`initialize_without_callbacks'
from
./script/../config/../config/../vendor/rails/activerecord/lib/active_record/callbacks.rb:236:in
`initialize'
from (irb):63:in `new_page'
from (irb):62:in `new_page'
from (irb):70
from :0
I've also tried creating the part_parts object using a straightforward
call from the console (p= PagePart.new("body")) with the same error
resulting.
I'm on a OS X 10.4 mac with a slightly outdated install of Darwinports,
but everything seems to be running local here, not off my Rails install.
Any thoughts on how I can batch-generate pages or fix this script?
Thanks,
Ethan
Ps. Sorry if this post is a dupe...I think I may have had some problems
sending it the first time or two.
