Gotcha! In Rails, you avail of request.parameters, not request.params as
I tried to do (my lazyness in reading API docs being deservedly
punished).
So here is my patch of Mario's code in order to get record information
dynamically by id in a radiant page used as a template (I added an
'URI_id' attribute in the tag):
tag 'record' do |tag|
raise TagError, "'#{tag.name}' tag must contain a 'model'
attribute." unless tag.attr['model']
raise TagError, "'#{tag.name}' tag must contain a 'conditions' or an
'id' or an 'URI_id' attribute." unless tag.attr['conditions'] or
tag.attr['id'] or tag.attr['URI_id']
record = eval("#{tag.attr['model']}.find(:first, :conditions =>
tag.attr['conditions'], :order => tag.attr['order'])") if
tag.attr['conditions']
record = eval("#{tag.attr['model']}.find(#{tag.attr['id']})") if
tag.attr['id']
#record =
eval("#{tag.attr['model']}.find(request.request_uri.split('/').last)")
if tag.attr['URI_id']
record = eval("#{tag.attr['model']}.find(request.parameters['id'])")
if tag.attr['URI_id']
tag.locals.record = record
tag.expand if record
end
In [myext]_extension.rb I added a route in order to pass the id as a
request parameter which is stripped from the radiant page url:
map.show_singlelink '[radiant page url]/:id', :controller
=> 'site', :action => 'show_page',:url => '[radiant page url]'
