i send you an email.
“Title” is an field in the table “offers”.

require ’search’

instead of

require_dependency ’search’

Is title an attribute of your Offer model?

Please dump what the log spits out when you hit the search action. I’m curious to see what it’s doing. Feel free to remove anything you don’t want to be seen, or you can email it to me @ dave [at] davedupre.com.

Controller looks like:
————————————–
def search
if params[:query]
@offers = Offer.search(params[:query])
else
@offers = []
end
end
————————————–

Model:
————————————–
require_dependency “search”

class Offer < ActiveRecord::Base
searches_on :all
end
————————————–

Form:
————————————–
{:action => :search} do |f| %>

————————————–

View for results:
————————————–

There were no results for your query

Result:

————————————–

Thanks for your help!

I’m new to Rails and trying to build an small test app which uses your search script. At the moment i get the error
—
undefined method `title’ for 0:Fixnum

I don’t know what went wrong. Any hints?

Thanks in advance.

ActiveRecord::Base.allow_concurrency = true

when you startup your thread. To be complete, you should also have:

ActiveRecord::Base.verify_active_connections!

at the end of your thread.

Don’t ever try to have threads in your web application, but I haven’t seen problems with daemons.

1. Make sure to reload the model in your controller. This may work, but timing will be a problem. What if the workling is delayed?

2. Use a transaction and lock the model. Just be careful with locking multiple models, you could end up with a deadlock. If you do modify multiple models, make sure you always access them in the same order.

we are facing an issue while updating a model from workling.the issue is,i have a counter column in a table and i increment this from controller and decrement from workling.This counter is used for controlling number of workling to be triggered.
The table in DB is showing the decremented value but still controller could not see the change in counter by the workling.Is this the expected behaviour of workling.
Is there any way to access the changes made to model (db table) by the controller.

Thanks in advance Kevin.

1. Stop my application to prevent new messages
2. run stats on starling to see how many items are left to process
3. When all queues are empty, restart workling
4. Start my application

I suppose to be safest you would want this automated in the workling shutdown process. However, if you’re queues tend to be long, and you haven’t changed a worker, then all you really need to do is stop all the workling threads in between a message. The ultimate would be to have both options available.
