I working on an existing code base for a client. The app is built in rails 2.3 and uses the fedex plugin. Now i have develop a functionality for shipping the goods using international priority service type, the problem i'm facing is when ever i make a call to the fedex api for a shipping label it returns an error
"Fedex::FedexError: Unable to get label from Fedex: Customs Value is required"
Can some one help me how to mention the customs value for the label.
This is how my code is:
price, labels, tracking_number = fedex.label(
:shipper => { :contact => shipper, :address => origin },
:recipient => { :contact => recipient, :address => destination.merge(:residential => false) },
:service_type => service_type,
:packages => [{:length => 3,
:height => 4,
:width => 5,
:weight => 5,
}],
:weight => 5,
:commodities => commodities,
:customs_value =>{:currency => "USD", :amount => "100" },
:residential => is_residential_destination
)
Thanks in advance.

I have a Rails 4.2 application that does different business depending on host name. I know this practice is frowned upon in certain circles but I managed to get the same code base working on about 400 websites, the amount of time|cpu|ram|db|money|squirrels saved is tremendous.
Eg:
For www.example.com for user john#doe.com it might show Product 1 with a $5000 price tag;
For www.blah.com for all usrs it might show Product 1 with a $123 price tag. And a shipping fee of $400.
This is all based on host name and a number of variables stored into session when users visit and/or log in to the website.
I'd like to write a bunch of specs to test various aspects of the application but I need to be able to set the request.host, format and some things in the session.
How do I get this done?
Later edit:
I managed to do a find and replace through the source code and get the session/request access done from within some helper methods. Now I can stub within my specs as follows:
allow_any_instance_of(ApplicationHelper).to receive(:detect_user_info_by_ip).with("ip").and_return( { :provider => "dummy", :ip => "127.0.0.1", :lat => 1.0, :latitude => 1.0, :lon => 2.1, :long => 2.1, :longitude => 2.1, :regi
on => "EU", :country => "GB", :city => "Testville", :country_iso2 => "GB", :success => true} )
allow_any_instance_of(ApplicationHelper).to receive(:detect_user_info_by_ip).and_return( { :provider => "dummy", :ip => "127.0.0.1", :lat => 1.0, :latitude => 1.0, :lon => 2.1, :long => 2.1, :longitude => 2.1, :region => "EU",
:country => "GB", :city => "Testville", :country_iso2 => "GB", :success => true} )
Bottom line is: easier to refactor and stub than access the request and session objects from within specs.
I'm using the fedex gem version 3.9 and cannot get the "signature required" option printed on my fedex label.
This is how it looks:
label = fedex.label(
:filename => "public/labels/#{label_name}",
:shipper => shipper,
:recipient => recipient,
:packages => packages,
:service_type => service_type,
:signature_required => true,
:shipping_options => shipping_options)
I remember this used to work a couple of months ago but now it doesn't.
Let me know if you have any suggestions.
Best,
Turns out that the signature options should be sent as part of the packages. Then it prints the label with the right signature initials
packages = [{
:weight => {:units => "LB", :value => 3},
:dimensions => {:length => 10, :width => 5, :height => 4, :units => "IN" },
:special_services_requested => {:special_service_types => "SIGNATURE_OPTION", :signature_option_detail => {:signature_option_type => "DIRECT"} }
}]
label = fedex.label(
:filename => "public/labels/#{label_name}",
:shipper => shipper,
:recipient => recipient,
:packages => packages
:shipping_options => shipping_options)
I am filling PDF forms in my rails app with the pdf-forms (https://github.com/jkraemer/pdf-forms) gem, based on PDFtk. Text fields work as I would expect, but my checkbox fields do not. The boxes display well in Chrome, but in Preview and Mail the checkbox fields appear empty.
class FormsController < ApplicationController
require 'pdf_forms'
def acord25
#policy = Policy.find(params[:id])
pdftk = PdfForms.new('/usr/local/bin/pdftk')
# find out the field names that are present in form.pdf
pdftk.get_field_names 'lib/pdfs/acord25.pdf'
# take form.pdf, set the 'foo' field to 'bar' and save the document to myform.pdf

TL;DR: Checked boxes display in Chrome, but not in Preview or Mail.
I appreciate any help or leads on what the problem might be. Thank you!
Turns out the PDF form was corrupted. Had to recreate form, not a PDFTK issue.
I'm trying to subscribe and update members of a Mailchimp list from my Rails 3.2 app via the API.
Everything is working fine, except that I am unable to set interest groups.
What is the correct format for setting groupings.
I've tried
merge_vars: 'GROUPINGS' => [
[
'id' => group_id,
'groups' => ['array', 'of', 'groups']
]
]
and
merge_vars: 'GROUPINGS' => [
[
'id' => group_id,
'groups' => "comma,separated,groups"
]
]
and
merge_vars: 'GROUPINGS' => [
0 => [
'id' => group_id,
'groups' => "comma,separated,groups"
]
]
and several other variations.
Nothing seems to work and the docs are unclear
Took me some time but I finnaly figured out the correct format :
#gb.lists.subscribe({:id => list_id,
:email => {:email => self.email},
:merge_vars => {:FNAME => self.firstname,
:groupings => [{:id => grouping_id,
:groups => ["name","of","groups"]
}]
},
:double_optin => false,
:send_welcome => false,
:update_existing => true})
I'm using rails 3.1.11 and gibbon 0.5.0
Hope this will help !
I've trying to get the flickr-fu gem to search correctly only for commercial friendly photos but with no luck. It seems to ignore the parameter altogether.
photos = flickr.photos.search(:text => "anything",
:tags => 'architecture',
#:license_id => '4,6,5',
:license_id => [0,4,5,6],
#:license_id => 0,
:content_type => '1',
:safe_search => '1',
:sort => 'date-posted-asc, relevance',
:per_page => 5)
The license IDs 1,2,3 are NonCommercial, so I'm trying to avoid those and take all others, but it doesn't seem to matter, i'm still getting a lot of 3s in my query.
http://www.flickr.com/services/api/flickr.photos.licenses.getInfo.html
http://github.com/commonthread/flickr_fu/blob/master/lib/flickr/photos.rb
Nevermind, this seems to work.
photos = flickr.photos.search(:text => "anything",
:tags => 'architecture',
:license => '0,4,5,6',
:content_type => '1',
:safe_search => '1',
:sort => 'date-posted-asc, relevance',
:per_page => 5)
