I have a Book resource that belongs both to a User and to an Isbn. What is the recommended way of building a new Book record in this type of situation?
class Book < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :user belongs_to :isbn end Currently I'm doing the following: @isbn = Isbn.find(...) book = @isbn.books.build(...) book.user_id = @user.id book.save Is this the way it's supposed to be done? I know that it's preferred to interact with dependent resources through their associations. So adding the user_id manually seems a bit clunky to me. But I'm not sure how else to do it!
