> > Hi All,
I have moved everything over to the model as suggested. Check it out :p In the model, I created a Class method as well as the previous instance methods: class Article < ActiveRecord::Base def self.rank(id, rank) @this_article = find(id) if (rank == "up") @next_article = find_by(rank: @this_article.rank.to_i-1) @this_article.rankup @next_article.rankdown else @next_article = find_by(rank: @this_article.rank.to_i+1) @this_article.rankdown @next_article.rankup end end def rankup self.rank = self.rank - 1 self.save end def rankdown self.rank = self.rank + 1 self.save end end And now in my controller, I only have one action: def rank Article.rank(params[:id], params[:rank]) redirect_to articles_path end It is working beautifully so I'm happy about that. However, can anyone please review the code and let me know if it is correct in terms of OOP? And if it is best practice for Rails. Rails is awesome.
