Re: [Radiant] Sessions in Radiant Help
But this shouldn't work because the method session is undefined for
yourextension_extension.rb.
That's the error I get when I try to do what you said:
in `activate': undefined method `session' for SolrTags:Module
(NoMethodError)
But I'm using radiant 6.0.4 so could be this. How could I get the method
session for my _extension.rb file?

Re: [Radiant] Sessions in Radiant Help
You can enable sessions for a particular extension by doing something
like this:
class YourExtension < Radiant::Extension
def activate
YourController.class_eval { session :disabled => false }
end
end
This works on Radiant 6.0.3. I found this on the mailing list. I do not
think this is documented.

Erik.

Re: [Radiant] Sessions in Radiant Help
I haven't dealt with that before, but if I were to do it, I would: Determine what I meant by expired (let's say 3 days for example) Write a rake task that deletes the session Write a cron script to run it nightly after the database backup My rake task would probably look like: namespace :db namespace :sessions task :delete => :environment do CGI::Session::ActiveRecordStore::Session.delete_all(['created_at < ?', 3.days.ago]) end end end My cron script would look something like this: mkdir -p /var/backup/mysql date=`date "+%d"` mysqldump -ubackup -pmypass myapp_production | gzip > /var/backup/ mysql/myapp-$date.sql.gz cd /var/www/apps/myapp/current && rake db:sessions:delete Alternately, you could have it run every time an admin logs in (assuming that your admins don't mind the slight performance hit) Jeff On Nov 16, 2007, at 11:54 PM, Maged Makled wrote: > Jeff Dean wrote: >> Here's what I did: >> >> gem install --include-dependencies radiant >> radiant myapp >> cd myapp >> [change database.yml] >> rake db:bootstrap >> rake radiant:freeze:edge >> rake radiant:update >> rake db:migrate >> [create extension...] >> >> Now you'll have a full copy of radiant's source code in your vendor/ >> radiant directory.

Re: [Radiant] Sessions in Radiant Help
Here's what I did:
gem install --include-dependencies radiant
radiant myapp
cd myapp
[change database.yml]
rake db:bootstrap
rake radiant:freeze:edge
rake radiant:update
rake db:migrate
[create extension...]
Now you'll have a full copy of radiant's source code in your vendor/
radiant directory. Now go to
vendor/radiant/app/controllers
You'll see site_controller.rb (which I mistakenly referred to as
SiteController.rb below) - comment out line 2, and sessions will now
be enabled for the whole app. If you've previously started your web
server, you may have to restart for the changes to take effect.
There are much more elegant solutions, I'm sure, but this one worked
for me. If you have a problem with edge radiant this might not work.
If that happens, let me know.

Thanks for your help. Could you explain your last paragraph in more
details, I'm totally new to Radiant. where can I find the
SiteController.rb? any examples would be very helpful
My extension rails_support_extension.rb looks like this
**
require_dependency 'application'
class RailsSupportExtension < Radiant::Extension
version "1.0"
description "Allows you to render Rails views in Radiant Layouts. "
url "http://code.google.com/p/radiant-rails-support/";
def activate
end
def deactivate
end
SiteController.send :include, SiteControllerExtension
SiteController.helper SiteHelperExtension
end
**
Thanks in advance

Re: [Radiant] Sessions in Radiant Help
I believe that this is because of a bug in rails, and not radiant.
The SiteController has session :off, and adding session :on in your
controllers doesn't seem to do anything.
The only way I know to change this is to actually go into
SiteController and comment out that line. I've seen posts about
putting things like:
SiteController.class_eval{session :on}
in the activate method of your extension, but that didn't work for me.
To get it to work, I did froze to edge radiant, then went into
SiteController.rb and commented out the session line. This would mean
that any pages that you want sessions off for you'd have to do
manually - so use with caution.

[Radiant] Sessions in Radiant Help
Hey all, I know this discussion has taken place before but I still can't get my hands around it. I'm using radiant with the Rails_support extension which works great with radiant for the content. The problem is when I try to use the session inside that app in the extensions, The session doesn't hold any data. The session that comes with radiant only get stuff written to it when I try to access the radiant admin app. Does any one have a solution for that or even a way around it. I really appreciate the help.
