finding by id

finding by id

I'm making a Sinatra db admin app.

Next to each listing, I have an 'edit' link where href=<%= [object_name].id
%> which gets routed to [object_name]/edit/:id.

An edit form is loaded with an object using
[Object].all(:id => params[:id])

There seems to be something wrong because of the uids. Here's there error:

> Expected "T\342\200\242\305\223
> \303\266\021\303\237\302\201\017\302\265\302\215t\302\274<\302\251" to cast
> to a Friendly::UUID (invalid bytecount)


 So I tried using the added_id as a finder, but got a method missing error.

How can I find a Friendly object by its (uu)id? (or added_id)

Thanks

The trick is to call .to_guid on the UUID when you're trying to put it in a
url (or anywhere else that isn't binary-compatible). That'll cast properly
and look a little nicer.

Thanks a lot! What does the 'g' in guid stand for?

Globally, I guess: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guid

It's not really a great distinction.

So I convert to_guid to append to a url, the url request is sent, and I have
a string that looks like this in my params hash:
54948ab0-09f6-11df-8a5e-9bf83280a99f

Running Purchase.all(:id => '54948ab0-09f6-11df-8a5e-9bf83280a99f') does not
work.

Both should work. Would you gist the error please?

I was running Purchase.all(:id => [guid string]) which doesn't work.
(http://gist.github.com/286477)

Purchase.find([guid string]) does work so I'll just use that.

Thanks.
