Hi all ! I'm currently developing a game using Ruby On Rails and have a question on how to design my controller, given the following concept: There are the following models: Product, Offer, Storage, User (and others, of course). Users can create offers for their products and of course, they can buy them. A Offer is associated with ONE product, so if you create 5 offers, there will be 5 INSERT statements.
Example: A User creates an Offer for beer (a Product), he produced and he sees something like this: http://bayimg.com/dAkaKAAbh So he selects an amount, and in the create action I'm doing something like (simplified): params[:amount].to_i.times do Offer.create… end If the User selects 6 as amount, there will be 6 different Offers in the database, each linked to another product. When I list the offers for buying, I want to provide this interface: http://bayimg.com/DakAjaaBH. Now there's a problem (from my point of view). If (another) User selects 3 as amount of beer to buy, how can I fetch the right Offers from the database ? I'm actually doing something like providing a "master" offer_id to the buy-action and fetching an offer. Then I know about the product and fetch all offers with the same product-"types" like the first offers. I hope there's anyone who understands what I've written. My question is, does anyone knows a better idea how to handle this. This is surely not a everyday problem, but I hope your guys are creative^^. If you have any questions, cause you didn't understand me, I will answer them ! Thank you very much in advance.
