Active_scaffold

Rails
1

Following this tutorial for setting up ActiveScaffold with Rails3:

and, when I run the following command:

rails g active_scaffold_setup [prototype| jquery]

I get the following:

C:\Users\Abder-Rahman\Desktop\howto>rails g active_scaffold_setup
[prototype| jq
uery]
‘jquery]’ is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Why is that?

Thanks.

And, also:

C:\Users\Abder-Rahman\Desktop\howto>rails g active_scaffold_setup
[prototype]
Could not find generator active_scaffold_setup.

C:\Users\Abder-Rahman\Desktop\howto>rails g active_scaffold_setup
[jquery]
Could not find generator active_scaffold_setup.

Why is that?

Because you’re supposed to run either rails g active_scaffold_setup
prototype or rails g active_scaffold_setup jquery depending on which
js library you’d rather be used/

Thanks @Fred.

This is what I get:

C:\Users\Abder-Rahman\Desktop\howto>rails g active_scaffold_setup
prototype
Could not find generator active_scaffold_setup.

Why?

Thanks @radhames. If you see my preceding posts you will find that I
don’t get the command to run. I don’t know where is the issue.

i suggest you dont user active scaffold until you know more about rails,
it
is only useful if you dont want to learn and are lazy

8

pass the command without brackets

@radhames. The case I want to use ActiveScaffold is that there is a very
quick application I have to get done. But, as you see, stuck in that
command.

active scaffold ill see what i did with it and give you an answer

I used this command:

rails plugin install git://github.com/vhochstein/active_scaffold.git

But, I don’t get any response after running this command!

What command did you use to install it?

And which folder were you in when you ran it?

If there was no response I suspect it did not work. Have you got git
installed?
If it did install the plugin you should see it under the vendor dir in
your app (or wherever it goes in Rails 3).

The Rail’s project folder.

I got the command run after cloning the plugin from git and manuallly
moving it to vendor/plugins in the Rails application folder.

Thanks all.

I have git installed.

Under vendor/plugins

I see an EMPTY active_scaffold folder.

Does cloning active_scaffold and manually inserting it in the “plugins”
folder do the job?

I’ll try it out.
