02:52 <dekroning> is there away to easily make a form, which contains an array of notes? i now just do name="post[notes][0]", name="post[notes][1], etc however i now need to do some pre database saving, and convert this params hash of notes into a json array, is there perhaps a better/easier way of doing this?

02:59 <cypher23> dekroning, try using post[notes][]

02:59 <dekroning> cypher23: k let me try

03:00 <dekroning> cypher23: toobad doesn't work, it will just get a "notes" : "text-from-last-note"

03:00 <mouse-_> hey all, is there a preferred in-code comment/doc system that people use?

03:01 <dekroning> cypher23: i would have guess something like this in form input would be used a lot, but i can't find anything about it either (easily) on google

03:03 <dekroning> cypher23: ah no your right! thanks :-) i accidently did it on the id= argument

03:09 <khaase> sr: ping

03:25 <cypher23> mouse-_, not really. most people use RDoc, since that comes with Ruby, but YARD is also very nice, and rocco looks sweet too (http://github.com/rtomayko/rocco/)

03:30 <khaase> mouse-_: also, to be in advertising mode again, i wrote a plugin for yard to generate docs for sinatra routes.

03:30 <khaase> rocco is more for code reading than api documentation, i think

03:31 <cypher23> true. but he didn't specify what kind of docs he wanted :)

09:12 <somebee> any hints on when 1.0 might be released?

10:29 <rmontgomery429> Anybody working with AppEngine? I'm looking for guidance how how best to handle Authorization inside a sinatra app. If you have any links or tips - it would be much appreciated.

11:47 <WALoeIII> shotgun is blowing up on me: /Users/Andrew/.rvm/gems/ree-1.8.7-2009.10/gems/eventmachine-0.12.10/lib/eventmachine.rb:572:in `start_tcp_server': no acceptor (RuntimeError)

11:56 <halorgium> WALoeIII: hah, using shotgun with thin is crazy ;)

11:59 <WALoeIII> halorgium: it just picks it by default, I will try w/ mongrel

12:00 <WALoeIII> I hadn't thought about that

12:00 <WALoeIII> halorgium: works great w/ mongrel

12:01 <halorgium> WALoeIII: yer, EM + forking -======== death

12:02 <khaase> WALoeIII: do server.delete "thin" in your app file somewhere

12:02 <khaase> or don't use shotgun (that's what i do)

12:05 <khaase> WALoeIII: Well actually... server.delete "thin" probably won't work. But you could do a set :server, "mongrel"

12:05 <khaase> or -s

12:11 <khaase> rtomayko: ping

12:11 <khaase> rtomayko: did you by any chance take a look at https://sinatra.lighthouseapp.com/projects/9779/tickets/333-conditional-before-filters ?

12:12 <khaase> rtomayko: you where mentioning that on the mailinglist

12:13 <rtomayko> khaase: oh nice. I missed that ticket somehow.

13:16 <gp5st> is there a way to get the port that the server is currently running on?

15:54 <tuples_> sinatra?q="aa" params[:q] contains aa instead of "aa" (the double quotes are missing). feature or bug?

15:57 <tuples_> It only happens if the double quotes are the outermost characters. sinatra?q= "aa" will properly return ' "aa"'

15:57 <tuples_> very strange behaviour.

16:45 <joeconyers> Does shotgun not work on windows?

16:47 <halorgium> joeconyers: don't think so

16:47 <joeconyers> Ugh I really gotta get a mac already

17:30 <Craig`> hey guys

20:33 <dnyy> joeconyers: linux? ;o

20:33 <joeconyers> dnyy: debating it

20:34 <dnyy> joeconyers: you can always dualboot/vm, no reason not to. :>

20:34 <joeconyers> dnyy: only have a 90 gig hd in this thing

20:34 <joeconyers> yeah was thinking dualboot

20:34 <joeconyers> with maybe 15 gigs on it, just for development

20:34 <dnyy> my current install only takes up 4.4gb with a few games and a full dev env set up.

20:35 <joeconyers> Nice

20:35 <joeconyers> guess i better go snag partition magick

20:36 <joeconyers> What distro are you using? ubuntu?

20:36 <dnyy> arch

20:36 <dnyy> http://archlinux.org :o

20:37 <joeconyers> yeah

21:00 <Zamous> Does anyone use rspec with sinatra?

23:47 <russm> do I need to do anything special to enable (or not disable) the http verb hack in rack/sinatra? I have a form which includes "<input name='_method' type='hidden' value='delete' />" but when submitting it I get the Sinatra error page saying I should define a post handler for the URL I'm submitting to...

23:48 <russm> I've got "enable :method_override" in my config.ru <http://config.ru>, and dumping the rack environment in a before filter includes "REQUEST_METHOD"=>"POST" and "rack.request.form_hash"=>{"_method"=>"delete"} - I'd think this should have been updated to "REQUEST_METHOD"=>"DELETE" by the time the request hits my before handler...

23:52 <russm> hmmm... well, specifically sticking "use Rack::MethodOverride" instead of trying to get Sinatra to enable it did the job...
