respond_with location ignored on GET request - ruby-on-rails-3

At each step in my checkout process, an order is updated via a PUT request. However, one of the states has a form that submits to a third party which redirects back to my site, calling the update method with GET (no control over this).
Why does my respond_with code appear to be totally ignored and I get a Missing Template checkout/update error? It should be hitting #edit.
CheckoutController.rb
before_filter :load_order
def update
if #order.update_attributes(params[:order])
#order.next
end
respond_with(#order, :location => checkout_state_url(#order.state))
end
routes.rb
match '/checkout/update/:state' => 'checkout#update', :as => :update_checkout
match '/checkout/:state' => 'checkout#edit', :as => :checkout_state
match '/checkout' => 'checkout#edit', :state => 'client_details', :as => :checkout

It looks like respond_with does different things depending upon the HTTP verb and whether the resource has errors. See here and here.
The following code worked for me:
def update
if #order.update_attributes(params[:order]) && #order.next
respond_with(#order) { |format| format.html { redirect_to checkout_state_url(#order.state) } }
else
respond_with(#order) { |format| format.html { render :edit } }
end
end

Rails action caching refresh after expire

I'm looking to expire and then refresh the cache for a controller action using a publicly accessible endpoint.
In my app currently, /all returns cached json, and /update expires the cache.
You can see the existing relevant code below.
What I'd like to do is not only expire the cache but force a refresh.
So, my question is:
Is there is a way to initiate the refresh of an action cache after expiring it, without hitting the action?
If the answer to that is no (as I'm beginning to suspect), then what would be the best way to do this? I require the update action to return an HTTP 200 status, not a 301 redirect so just redirecting to /all isn't an option.
VendorsController
caches_action :all, :expires_in=>2.weeks
....
def all
respond_to do |format|
format.json { render :json => Vendor.all }
format.html { render :json => Vendor.all }
end
end
....
def update
render :nothing => true
expire_action :action => :all
end
You should use write_fragment
def update
render :nothing => true
expire_action :action => :all
cache_path = ActionCachePath.new(self, {:action => :all}, false).path
write_fragment(cache_path, render_to_string(:json => Vendor.all))
end

Rails testing, how to specify path for post? (No route matches error)

I try to test one of my REST api controllers which is placed at "controllers/api/v1/bookings_controller.rb". The controller only responds_to json at the moment as you can see here:
class Api::V1::BookingsController < ApplicationController
respond_to :json
before_filter :authenticate_user!
before_filter :get_user
def create
...
end
end
My functional test is located at "test/functional/api/v1/bookings_controller_test.rb" and looks like following:
require 'test_helper'
class Api::V1::BookingsControllerTest < ActionController::TestCase
include Devise::TestHelpers
setup do
#booking = bookings(:one)
#user = users(:one)
sign_in #user
end
test "should return a bad request" do
post :create, :booking => { }, :format => 'json'
assert_response :bad_request
end
end
The post path for creating a booking looks like this (and works, tested with HTTP Client):
api_v1_user_bookings
GET /api/v1/users/:user_id/bookings(.:format) api/v1/bookings#index
POST /api/v1/users/:user_id/bookings(.:format) api/v1/bookings#create
However when I run the test it seems that it uses some default route (see error message below), how can i specify the correct route in my test? Or is there some other mistake I do not see here?
test_should_return_a_bad_request(Api::V1::BookingsControllerTest):
ActionController::RoutingError: No route matches {:booking=>{}, :format=>"js
on", :controller=>"api/v1/bookings", :action=>"create"}
Your route expects a user_id parameter. Add it to your post:
post :create, :user_id => #user.id, :booking => {}, :format => :json
Ok, I think I figured it out now. I just had to add the user-id, otherwise it seems that rails does not select the right route. So the correct test method looks like this:
test "should return a bad request" do
post :create, :user_id => #user.id, :booking => { }, :format => 'json'
assert_response :bad_request
end

Rails Devise 2.0 own Log-out action

I use Devise and I want to do my logout action.
What I want to do is, that when I log out, I want to create a own JSON object to return. At this time, after I logt out, I get all my root articles.
How can I write my own destory action like I have found the create action?
class SessionsController < Devise::SessionsController
def create
resource = warden.authenticate!(:scope => resource_name, :recall => :failure)
return sign_in_and_redirect(resource_name, resource)
end
def sign_in_and_redirect(resource_or_scope, resource=nil)
scope = Devise::Mapping.find_scope!(resource_or_scope)
resource ||= resource_or_scope
sign_in(scope, resource) unless warden.user(scope) == resource
return render :json => {:success => true, :redirect => stored_location_for(scope) || after_sign_in_path_for(resource)}
end
def failure
return render:json => {:success => false, :errors => ["Login failed."]}
end
end
And my Routes in routes.rb
devise_for :users, :controllers => {:session => "sessions"} do
get "/users/sing_out" => "devise/sessions#destroy"
end
this is the destroy method of the sessions-controller.
you should be able to customize it to your needs. i think that it would be wiser to add another action and implementing your custom behavior there, as this will be less likely to cause unexpected errors with upgrading devise in the future.
# DELETE /resource/sign_out
def destroy
redirect_path = after_sign_out_path_for(resource_name)
signed_out = (Devise.sign_out_all_scopes ? sign_out : sign_out(resource_name))
set_flash_message :notice, :signed_out if signed_out
# We actually need to hardcode this as Rails default responder doesn't
# support returning empty response on GET request
respond_to do |format|
format.any(*navigational_formats) { redirect_to redirect_path }
format.all do
method = "to_#{request_format}"
text = {}.respond_to?(method) ? {}.send(method) : ""
render :text => text, :status => :ok
end
end
end

Rails3 and Rspec2 controller testing with a namespace

I'm trying to test a controller with a name space, following is my controller (/admin/sites_controller.rb):
class Admin::SitesController < AdminController
def create
#site = Site.new(params[:site])
respond_to do |format|
if #site.save
format.html { redirect_to(#site, :notice => 'Site was successfully created.') }
format.xml { render :xml => #site, :status => :created, :location => #site }
else
format.html { render :action => "new" }
format.xml { render :xml => #site.errors, :status => :unprocessable_entity }
end
end
end
end
and following is my routes.rb file
namespace :admin do
resources :sites
end
I'm using rspec2 to test my controller and following is my controller spec
describe Admin::SitesController do
describe "POST create" do
describe "with valid params" do
it "creates a new Site" do
expect {
post :create, :site => valid_attributes
}.to change(Site, :count).by(1)
end
end
end
end
But when I run the spec it gives me the following routing error
Admin::SitesController POST create with valid params creates a new Site
Failure/Error: post :create, :site => valid_attributes
NoMethodError:
undefined method `site_url' for #<Admin::SitesController:0xb5fbe6d0>
# ./app/controllers/admin/sites_controller.rb:47:in `create'
# ./app/controllers/admin/sites_controller.rb:45:in `create'
# ./spec/controllers/admin/sites_controller_spec.rb:78
# ./spec/controllers/admin/sites_controller_spec.rb:77
I guess its because of the 'admin' name space I'm using, but how can I fix that?
I'm using
Rails3
Rspec2
Linux
When you namespace the route, you're creating URL and path helpers that look like this:
HTTP Verb Path action helper
GET /admin/sites index admin_sites_path
GET /admin/sites/new new new_admin_site_path
POST /admin/sites create admin_sites_path
GET /admin/sites/:id show admin_site_path(:id)
GET /admin/sites/:id/edit edit edit_admin_site_path(:id)
PUT /admin/sites/:id update admin_site_path(:id)
DELETE /admin/sites/:id destroy admin_site_path(:id)
So you can either use those directly in your code (i.e. redirect_to admin_site_path(#site) ), or you can do something like:
redirect_to([:admin, #site])

Rails 3.1 respond_to & render_403 problem

I'm not sure what it is. I've just upgraded to Rails 3.1 from 3.0.9 and here's what I get in my specs:
PeopleController edit action should require owner
Failure/Error: response.should render_template("/public/403.html")
expecting <"/public/403.html"> but rendering with <"search/_search_menu_item">
This is all over my specs in various controllers. I also have this code in my AppController:
def render_403
respond_to do |format|
format.html { render :file => "#{Rails.root}/public/403.html", :status => 403, :layout => false }
format.json { render :json => { :error => true, :message => "Error 403, you don't have permissions for this operation." } }
end
end
And this in PeopleController:
def edit
render_403 unless #person.account.id == current_account.id
end
I'm certain that format.html block gets executed (checked it). However the spec expectation fails. Wonder what is going on here.
(search/_search_menu_item is a partial that gets included onto every page, which basically means that the app layout gets rendered here instead.)
Update: I've replaced render_403 in #edit with render(:file => "#{Rails.root}/public/403.html", :status => 403, :layout => false) to see what happens - got the same result.
Ok, figured it out. Possibly not a Rails problem. At least the problem appears only when running the specs.
I've been checking if 403 pages are rendered with this:
response.should render_template("public/403.html")
Doesn't work no more. Replacing it with
response.status.should == 403
fixed the issue.
