Hey guys,
I’m trying to access a YAML file to set up some options in a select
drop-down that was previously hard-coded.
I have the following in my controller:
require “yaml”
require “pp”
require “util”
require “date”
set the path
$LOAD_PATH << File.join(File.dirname(FILE), ‘…/’)
require ‘rate’
require ‘test/unit’
require ‘yaml’
#require ‘rubygems’
#require ‘ruby-debug/debugger’
YAML_CONFIG_FILE_STR = “LawyersProfessionalLiability.yaml”
YAML_CONFIG_FILE =
File.join(File.expand_path(File.dirname(FILE)),"…",YAML_CONFIG_FILE_STR)
class LplShortFormAppsController < ApplicationController
def initialize(filename = “LawyersProfessionalLiability.yaml”)
# load all lookup tables
@RateLookup = YAML::load(File.open(filename))
reset
end
def new
# load all lookup tables
@RateLookup = YAML::load(File.open(YAML_CONFIG_FILE))
@deductibles = @RateLookup[“Deductible”]
@desired_limits = @RateLookup[“Liability Limits”]
@lpl_short_form_app = LPLShortFormApp.new
respond_to do |format|
format.html # new.html.erb
format.xml { render :xml => @lpl_short_form_app }
end
end
…
end
And the code in the view doesn’t matter yet because I keep receiving:
Errno::ENOENT in Lpl short form appsController#index
No such file or directory - LawyersProfessionalLiability.yaml
RAILS_ROOT: /Users/brwn/work/demo
Application Trace | Framework Trace | Full Trace
/Users/brwn/work/demo/app/controllers/lpl_short_form_apps_controller.rb:31:in
initialize' /Users/brwn/work/demo/app/controllers/lpl_short_form_apps_controller.rb:31:inopen’
I don’t know why. Where is the YAML file supposed to go? I’ve tried
placing it in /app, /public, /views/, /views/lpl_short_form_apps (the
view where the YAML file is being called to load).
Can anyone assist?
Thanks,
Ahad
