Hi
I have a simple test that uses a Polymorphic relationship - see below
- and grossly simplified.
Running this through the obvious AS controllers behaves as one would
expect. You can create orders from the various Customer controllers
and things are just fine.
However, I need to have a way to explore the data about the customer
from the orders controller.
Crudely(very!!) this can be done by mimicking a show_action. So if one
places this in orders_helper.rb:
def order_customer_column(record)
"<a href='/customer1s/#{record.customer_id}?
_method=get&parent_controller=orders' class='show action order'
id='as_orders-customer1s-show-#{record.customer_id}-link'
position='after'>#{record.customer.name} </a>"
end
I get a show action - and I can turn it into an edit etc etc - Ugly!
But there must be a better way to do this - and preferably one that
gives me access to the customers as a nested action - just like the
order_items in the code above.
This ought to be obvious - but I have stared at it so long I can not
see it. Suggestions ?
Code:
class Customer1 < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :orders, :as => :customer
end
class Customer2 < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :orders, :as => :customer
end
class Order < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :customer, :polymorphic => true
has_many :order_items
end
class OrderItem < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :order
end
class Customer1sController < ApplicationController
active_scaffold :customer1s do |config|
end
end
class Customer2sController < ApplicationController
active_scaffold :customer2s do |config|
end
end
class OrderItemsController < ApplicationController
active_scaffold :order_items do |config|
end
end
class OrdersController < ApplicationController
active_scaffold :orders do |config|
end
end
/S
