Hello I am new to rails and have a design issue. Although I have a proposed solution I am far from sure how robust it is. I would appreciate any feedback.
My application is team based: - A user can only be in one team - Team members(user) cannot view/edit another team's content Team A -User -Widget --Part Team B -User -Widget --Part I need to: - identify the team from the user - create members for a team So everything is simple - just create a User model that belongs_to the Team (has_many users). Except I need admin users to manage the teams. My problem is how best to manage this? I think I need a User model and a Member model. The user handles authentication, a user without a member association is an admin and the member belongs to the Team. Perhaps something like this: Team has_many :members Member belongs_to :team has_one :user attr :team_role User belongs_to: member authenticates! attr :admin_role However, this doesn't seem correct because the User still belongs to Team. I am sure that at least the relationship between user & member is incorrect. Can you suggest a better (more conventional) solution?
