Database.yml for the ActsAsReadonlyable plugin

Rails
1

Hi,

I’m currently looking at pulling the ActsAsReadonlyable plugin into my
rails project but im getting an error when i attempt to run this is
development mode as in the console says: No db config entry defined for
read_only.

The setup prior to the plugin was:

development:
adapter: mysql
host: 127.0.0.1
encoding: utf8
database: dbv2
username: root
password:

readonlydb_development:
adapter: mysql
host: 127.0.0.1
encoding: utf8
database: dbv2
username: root
password:

any ideas?

Hi Bill,

So now I have:

development:
adapter: mysql
host: 127.0.0.1
encoding: utf8
database: dbv2
username: root
password:

read_only:
adapter: mysql
host: 127.0.0.1
encoding: utf8
database: bv2
username: root
password:

… but I’m still getting the same error in the console. I’ve tried
rebooting and loading up the plugin again but to no success.

Change this:

readonlydb_development:

To this:
:readonly

adapter: mysql
host: 127.0.0.1
encoding: utf8
database: dbv2
username: root
password:

You don’t need to identify the entry as belonging to a particular
environment. The plugin parses database.yml in sections by environment.

Here’s what the development section of mine looks like. It works fine.

development:
adapter: mysql
database: wcpublic_development
username: root
password:
host: localhost

read_only:
adapter: mysql
database: wcpublic_development
username: root
password:
host: localhost

Best regards,
Bill

Actually it all seems to work fine now. I may have had an issue with the
.yml file not being parsed correctly.

Thanks for your help :slight_smile:
