scaffold_error_messages ()

an array of strings describing problems with the object (empty if none)

[show source] 
   # File lib/scaffolding_extensions/model.rb, line 4
4:   def scaffold_error_messages
5:     errors.full_messages
6:   end
scaffold_name ()

The name given to the item that is used in various places in the scaffold. For example, it is used whenever the record is displayed in a select box. Should be unique for each record, but that is not required. Should be overridden by subclasses unless they have a unique attribute named ‘name’.

13:     scaffold_attribute_value(:name) || scaffold_id.to_s
14:   end
scaffold_name_with_id ()

scaffold_name prefixed with id, used for scaffold autocompleting

scaffold_value (field)

the value of the field if not an association, or the scaffold_name of the associated object
