I am trying to create a polymorphic relationships and to show them.
Here my relationships
events
has_many :comments, :as => :commentable
users
has_many :comments, :as => :commentable
comments
belongs_to :comments, :polymorphic => true
comments has the following models
# commentable_id :integer
# commentable_type :string(255)
Now my goals would be show on event#index items related to the events but also to shows all comments.description according to each events sorta has follow
********************* *********************
Event.title Event.title
Event.description Event.description
{Comment.body} {Comment.body}
... ...
********************** **********************
and so on.
Here my controller
def index
#mosttop = Event.all[1..-1]
#loc = #mosttop.comments
end
If i do this however i get an undefined locations. I am wondering what i am doing wrong. Also, my routes is has follow
resources :events do
resources :comments do
end
Also at the moment I haven't create a relationship using build, but just when at the link event/1/comments and create it
the controller is has follow
def create
#comment = #commentable.comments.new(params[:comment])
...
end
private
def load_commentable
resource, id = request.path.split('/')[1,2]
#commentable = resource.singularize.classify.constantize.find(id)
end
end

while importing csv row i need to check wether this is duplicate entry or new entry.
my csv looks like this,
company,location,region,service,price,duration,disabled
Google,Berlin,EU,Design with HTML/CSS,120,30,false
Google,San Francisco,US,Design with HTML/CSS,120,30,false
Google,San Francisco,US,Restful API design,1500,120,false
Apple,London,EU,Design with HTML/CSS,120,30,false
Google,Berlin,EU,Design with HTML/CSS,120,30,false
Google,San Francisco,US,Restful API design,1500,120,false
Also the row value should be imported in different table whose association is like this
A Company:
can have multiple regions: US, EU and each region multiple branches, i.e. London, Berlin. Define a hierarchy to represent this logic.
has many Services. If there are more branches, they will all share the same services
can be disabled
A Service:
has a duration
has a price
can be disabled
if the company is disabled, all services are disabled.
for which i have implemented association like this
class Company < ApplicationRecord
has_many :regions
has_many :services
has_many :locations, through: :regions
end
class Region < ApplicationRecord
belongs_to :company
has_many :locations
end
class Location < ApplicationRecord
belongs_to :region
belongs_to :company
end
class Service < ApplicationRecord
belongs_to :company
end
How will I import this?
I am doing something like this
namespace :import do
desc "Import data"
task company: :environment do
CSV.foreach('lib/data/companies_data.csv', headers:true) do |row|
company = Company.create(:name => row["company"])
region = company.regions.create(:name => row["region"])
if region.id and company.id
location = company.locations.create(:name =>row["location"],
:region_id => region.id)
service = company.services.create(:name => row["service"],
:price => row["price"], :duration =>
row["duration"], :disabled =>row["disabled"])
end
end
end
end
How do I check wether a row is already present in database as it already contains associated table.
You can use .first_or_create. This will only create new db records if there is not a match on the previous ActiveRecord Relation call:
Model.where(some_unique_field: row['Unique Column']).first_or_create(row)
You can also pass a block to first_or_create as listed in the docs if you want to apply any additional logic to the CSV row ie model.price = row['price'] + fee
I am trying to retrieve a list of all tasks, where each task has a developer and reviewer. I am able to retrieve the list but it contains developer_id and reviewer_id. How do I retrieve a list containing developer name and retriever name?
class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
end
class Unread_Object < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :person
end
class Developer < Person
has_many :tasks
end
class Reviewer < Person
has_many :tasks
has_many :unread_objects
end
class Task < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :developer
belongs_to :reviewer
has_many :documents
after_save :add_task_to_unread_objects
protected
def add_task_to_unread_objects
Person.find_each do |person|
Unread_Object.create(
:person_id => person.id,
:internal_object_id => self.internal_object_id,
:unread_cause => 'Create')
end
end
end
Things I have tried.
get '/taskslist' do
#Task.includes([:developer, :reviewer]).all.to_json
#Task.joins(:developer,:reviewer).select("tasks.*, people.*").to_json #works somewhat but only shows one name
#Task.includes(:reviewer.name,:developer.name).all.to_json #"undefined method `name' for :reviewer:Symbol"
#Task.find(:all, :include => {:people => :name}).to_json #Couldn't find all Tasks with 'id': (all, {:include=>{:people=>:name}})
end
I hope to get Tasks json with nested json for developer, reviewer and other objects.
This question is follow up of this.
After some searching found as_json(include: <association>)
So this works
Task.includes(:developer,:reviewer).all.as_json(include: [:developer,:reviewer]).to_json
But other alternatives need to be seen.
Models:
A User has_one Ucellar
A Ucellar belongs_to User
I have confirmed from multiple sources that these are set up correctly. For posterity, here is the top portion of those two models.
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :authorizations
has_one :ucellar
validates :name, :email, :presence => true
This is actually the entire Ucellar model.
class Ucellar < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :user
end
Ucellar has a column called user_id, which I know is necessary. The part of my application that creates a user uses the method create_with_oath. Below is the entire User class. Note the second line of the create method.
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :authorizations
has_one :ucellar
validates :name, :email, :presence => true
def create
#user = User.new(user_params)
#ucellar = #user.create_ucellar
end
def add_provider(auth_hash)
# Check if the provider already exists, so we don't add it twice unless authorizations.find_by_provider_and_uid(auth_hash["provider"], auth_hash["uid"])
Authorization.create :user => self, :provider => auth_hash["provider"], :uid => auth_hash["uid"]
end
end
def self.create_with_omniauth(auth)
user = User.create({:name => auth["info"]["name"], :email => auth["info"]["email"]})
end
private
def user_params
params.require(:user).permit(:name, :email)
end
end
EDIT:
Forgot to summarize the symptoms. On create, the user is in the db, with no exceptions thrown, and nothing to signify that anything went wrong. However, the related ucellar is never created. Per the documentation Here, the create method should create AND save the related ucellar.
It should create ucellar too.
Try to get the error messages after the creation by calling:
raise #user.errors.full_messages.to_sentence.inspect
I'm not sure why this wasn't working, but I ended up just moving this code out of the create action of the user controller, and putting it directly after an action that was creating a user. It solved my issue though. Thanks everyone for your help!
I have a "two middleman" model setup as shown below:
User
has_many :comments
has_many :ratings
Comment
belongs_to :user
belongs_to :movie
Rating
belongs_to :user
belongs_to :movie
Movie
has_many :comments
has_many :ratings
Whats the best way to get all Movies that a User is associated with (either commented on or rated)?
I'd like to be able to call User.get_movies(user_id) and get back an ActiveRecord::Relation object so that it's chainable (i.e. User.get_movies(user_id).limit(3).order(...)). This returns a regular old array, and I suspect I'm hitting the database way more than I need to be.
def self.get_movies(user_id)
user = self.where(:id => user_id).includes({:comments => :movie}, {:ratings => :movie})
movies = []
user.comments.each do |comment|
movies.push(comment.movie)
end
user.ratings.each do |rating|
movies.push(rating.movie)
end
movies.uniq!
end
def movies
Movie.includes(:ratings, :comments).where("`ratings`.user_id = ? OR `comments`.user_id = ?", self.id, self.id)
end
Untested, but I'm pretty sure using a joins instead of includes also works.
I have A number of models (Article, Video, Photo)
Now I am trying to create a related_to association, such that
An article can have many other articles, videos and photos related to it. As can videos and photos.
Heres what I have tried:
module ActsAsRelatable
def self.included(base)
base.extend(ClassMethods)
end
module ClassMethods
def acts_as_relatable
has_many :related_items, :as => :related
has_many :source_items, :as => :source, :class_name => 'RelatedItem'
end
end
end
class RelatedItem < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :source, :polymorphic => true
belongs_to :related, :polymorphic => true
end
Then I have added acts_as_relatable to my three models (Article, Video, Photo) and included the module in ActiveRecord::Base
When trying in ./script/console I get it to add the related items and the ids work correctly however the source_type and related_type are always the same (the object that related_items was called from) I want the related_item to be the other model name.
Any ideas anyone?
I would use the has many polymorphs plugin since it supports double sided polymorphism you can do something like this:
class Relating < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :owner, :polymorphic => true
belongs_to :relative, :polymorphic => true
acts_as_double_polymorphic_join(
:owners => [:articles, :videos, :photos],
:relatives => [:articles, :videos, :photos]
)
end
and don't forget the db migration:
class CreateRelatings < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
create_table :relating do |t|
t.references :owner, :polymorphic => true
t.references :relative, :polymorphic => true
end
end
def self.down
drop_table :relatings
end
end
I don't know if "Relating" is a good name, but you get the idea. Now an article, video and photo can be related to another article, video or photo.
