Ok, I've been on this issue for several hours already. If someone with
more RoR experience can help me out. It will be much appreciated.
A small description of what I am trying to do. In the deal show view.
I want to display comments for a particular deal. So far everything
works, except that I am unable to list down the comments. I can submit
comments without any problems.
Here is my code:
social migration:
class CreateSocials < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
create_table :socials do |t|
t.references :user
t.references :deal
t.references :entity, :polymorphic => true
#t.references :commentable, :polymorphic => true
t.timestamps
end
end
def self.down
drop_table :socials
end
end
-----------
social model class
class Social < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :deal
belongs_to :user
belongs_to :entity, :polymorphic => true
has_many :comments
#has_one :comment, :dependent => :destroy
#Social table should have belongs_to :entity, :polymorphic => true
#t.references :entity, :polymorphic => true
#belongs_to :entity, :polymorphic => true
end
----------
comment migration:
class CreateComments < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
create_table :comments do |t|
#t.references :user
#t.references :entity, :polymorphic => true
#t.integer :commentable_id
#t.string :commentable_type
t.text :comment
t.timestamps
end
end
def self.down
drop_table :comments
end
end
--------
comment model class:
class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
#belongs_to :user
#belongs_to :entity, :polymorphic => true
#has_one :social
#belongs_to :user
#def after_create
#why dont you make the form on Comment, and create the Social
record in Comments after_create hook or something like that?
#Social.create(:entity => self)
#end
end
--------
deal migration:
class CreateDeals < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
create_table :deals do |t|
t.references :city
t.references :user
t.string :title
t.text :description
t.integer :price
t.integer :value
t.integer :discount
t.integer :savings
t.integer :goal
t.datetime :countdown
t.integer :purchased
t.timestamps
end
end
def self.down
drop_table :deals
end
end
-----------
deal model class
class Deal < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_presence_of :city_id
validates_presence_of :title, :description, :price, :value, :discount,
:savings, :goal, :countdown, :purchased
validates_length_of :title, :minimum => 5
belongs_to :city
belongs_to :user
has_many :features, :dependent => :destroy
has_many :photos, :dependent => :destroy
has_many :socials, :as => :entity
#has_many :comments, :through => :socials, :source => :comments
#has_many :socials; has_many :comments, :through => :socials
#has_many :social, :dependent => :destroy
#has_many :socials, :as => :entity
accepts_nested_attributes_for :features, :reject_if => lambda { |a|
a[:description].blank? }, :allow_destroy => true
accepts_nested_attributes_for :photos, :reject_if => lambda { |a|
a[:photo].blank? }, :allow_destroy => true
#has_attached_file :photo, :styles => { :small => "150x150>" },
# :url => "/assets/
deals/:id/:style/:basename.:extension",
# :path => ":rails_root/public/assets/
deals/:id/:style/:basename.:extension"
#validates_attachment_presence :photo
#validates_attachment_size :photo, :less_than => 5.megabytes
#validates_attachment_content_type :photo, :content_type => ['image/
jpeg', 'image/png']
#def self.search(search, page)
# paginate :per_page => 1, :page => page,
# #:conditions => ['name like ?', "%#{search}%"],
# :order => 'created_at'
#end
define_index do
indexes title, :sortable => true
indexes description
#indexes :name, :sortable => true
#indexes comments.content, :as => :comment_content
#indexes [author.first_name, author.last_name], :as
=> :author_name
indexes [user.first_name, user.last_name], :as => :full_name
#has author_id, created_at
has created_at
end
def comments
# self.socials.collect { |a| a.comment }
#Comment.find(:conditions => 'id = 1')
self.socials.collect { |a| a.comment }
end
end
--------
This is my view:
deal show view:
... some html stuff here pertaining to the @deal object ...
<table>
<tr>
<th>Comments</th>
</tr>
<% @deal.comments.each do |comment| %>
<tr>
<td><%=h comment.comment %></td>
<td><%= link_to 'Show', comment %></td>
<td><%= link_to 'Edit', edit_comment_path(comment) %></td>
<td><%= link_to 'Destroy', comment, :confirm => 'Are you
sure?', :method => :delete %></td>
</tr>
<% end %>
</table>
<% form_for [...@comment, Comment.new] do |f| %>
<%= f.error_messages %>
<%= hidden_field_tag :deal_id, params[:id] %>
<p>
<%= f.label :comment, 'New comment' %><br />
<%= f.text_area :comment %>
</p>
<p><%= f.submit 'Add comment' %></p>
<% end %>
The problem is. ":through" does not work properly with polymorphic
associations...
Any assistance on this issue is a big help.
