If goal belongs_to user, and you want to list,show and maybe change the
user for goals but not change the user itself, steps are:
- disable AS-crud calls:
config.columns[:user].form_ui = :select # or :chosen, :record_select, best
choice depends on how many records you will have
- disable links in goal list which call controller renderers
conf.list.columns[:user].link = false
AS by default, will try to render the user by calling .to_label method, so
if that's enought for you, just remember to define that method in the user
model
def to_label
name
end
or if you want something more sophisticated, use helpers:
GoalHelper:
def goal_user_column(record, column)
"<div> #{record.name} " # add fancy stuff here
end
or you can define specific renderers for list AND show separately
def goal_user_show_column...
def goal_user_list_column ...
