Strong parameters filter the input before it hits the
Yes that has it working now! The world is beautiful again.

It looked to me as though he was saving it as a bit mask, though. Does the
strong parameters apply when accepting the input or saving to the persistence
layer?

Hi Phillip,
If your roles param is an array, you should tell strong parameters explicitly
like this:
params[:user].permit(:id, :email, :password, :roles => [])
Excepted from the doc:
To declare that the value in params must be an array of permitted scalar
values map the key to an empty
Okay, try this:
@user = User.new(params[:user].permit(:id, :email, :password,
:password_confirmation, :roles))
And if that doesn't do it, then I need to see the raw parameters from your form
submission (they will be in your console).

Just the users table, "role_mask" the one we want? Here is the users from
schema.rb
create_table "users", force: true do |t|
t.string "email", default: "", null: false
t.string "encrypted_password", default: "", null: false
t.string "reset_password_token"
Okay, so now you know that strong parameters is the problem. Go into your
schema, copy the entire table definition, and paste it here. This will be easy
to fix, just have to see what the actual column name is that you need to
whitelist.
Don't just leave your controller like this, you are not sa
Yes! That works. Thanks Walter.
(code now...)
def create
@user = User.new(params[:user].permit!)

Okay, try this (just to see if it saves at all):
params[:user].permit!
That turns off strong parameters entirely, so let's see if your value is
getting saved.

Ah yes, in console I have a line(when creating a user) saying
Unpermitted parameters: password_confirmation, roles
I tried...
def create
@user = User.new(params[:user].permit(:id, :email, :password,
:roles_mask))
...etc...
and...
def create
@user = User.new(params[:user].permit(
Also, watch your console as you update, and see if there's a warning about
illegal attributes not being saved.

Aha. You have a method called roles, but you're storing this in roles_mask?
Which is a string? You should try adding roles_mask in the strong parameters, I
think.

Just a guess here -- have you updated your strong parameters declaration in the
users_controller to include the roles field?

Hi,
(Using Rails 4.0.1, Ruby 1.9.3, latest devise and cancan gems. sqlite db
for local development)
I am a rookie, setting up website and was adding roles(using cancan gem) to
my users table. Everything works great, except when I select a role for a
user it is not getting saved. The user gets
15 matches
