Hi,
I have a question about single table inheritance and controllers. Lets
start to talk about my domain. There are two parent models in my
system, they and their children are;
class Vehicle < ActiveRecord::Base
attr_accessible :name, :model, :engine, :fuel_type .....
validates ....................
has_many :tires
end
class Car < Vehicle
attr_accessible :car_type, :speed .....
validates ....................
end
class Truck < Vehicle
attr_accessible :load_volume, :number_of_tires .....
validates ....................
end
class Tire < ActiveRecord::Base
attr_accessible :diameter, :material ......
validates ....................
belongs_to : vehicle
end
class WinterTire < Tire
attr_accessible :winter_tire_type....
validates ....................
end
class SummerTire < Tire
attr_accessible :summer_tire_type....
validates ....................
end
To create restful controllers for these classes I choose generating
parent controllers so;
class Vehicles < ApplicationController
methods
end
class Tires < ApplicationController
methods
end
But I end up with a confusion how to use same controllers for creating
different type of child objects. Is my choice feasible or creating
seperate controllers is more suitable? But doesn't that mean a
conflict with DRY style?
Thank you...
Rushen
