Creating a priority ToDo App in Rails

I am trying to add a high/low priority button to a ToDo Rails app and am having trouble. The button should resort the items in the list based on high/low priority. I have created a new table with the rails generate method Priority, but I am having trouble on what I do next. How should you update the task controller to sort the tasks by order of priority?

How can I get the updated date from a bootstrap datetimepicker with the datetimepicker-rails gem

How can I get the value of the <input class="date_picker" ... when the <div class="bootstrap-datetimepicker-widget" ... is changed or updated? I need to get the value so I can update other attributes on the same page. Here is my best attempt to react to the 'changeDate' event:

$('.datetimepicker').datetimepicker().on('changeDate', function(ev){
    console.log(' date changed '+ ev.date); 
});

I'm unable to get any response form this event. I also opened an issue with @zpaulovics's gem but I'm not sure if this is a defect, or if I am not accessing the event correctly.

AngularJS HTTP call takes two minutes while the Rails action only takes 20 seconds, how can I debug this?

I have an AngularJS app and there's one page in my application, only one, that is taking 2 minutes to load. It is loading a bit of data, but the data itself is only 700KB and I benchmarked the entire rails action starting from the beginning until right before the render and it only takes 15-20 seconds. But when I look at the actual network call, or I put a timer before the angular http post call and then one in the success, they both show the call taking almost 2 minutes. I can't figure out what's going on between the render and the success on angular that would be causing this extreme time difference. Does anyone know how I could further debug this or possibly know what could be causing this?

The rails action just does a couple big database calls, all optimized, then does some work on the data, then the data (which is already JSONified with to_json) is rendered out.

Rails action ends with Completed 200 OK in 20458ms (Views: 913.8ms | ActiveRecord: 139.6ms)

Rails. Creating a User Controller. My Edit method does not show an ID

I'm creating a app. I've created a User Controller, and successfully created New and Create methods. Running the rails console, I can bring up any ID that I've created. I don't understand when I try to edit from the users/index.html page I'm not directed to /users/id/edit

Routes:

Heroku migrate db error unknown column

I am working on my ruby on rails project and when I run heroku db:migrate I get an error about how a column doesn't exist.

I know that this is because I had a migration file that I manually edited to remove a column I created beforehand instead of creating a new migration file.

I removed the remove_column line and migrated db my local db but when I migrate it to heroku it still runs the migration file to remove column even though the line is no longer there on the actual file.

I dropped my database and loaded the schema again but the heroku error continues to occur.

Heroku scheduler - schedule on demand (http post?)

We want to schedule/trigger jobs over HTTP.

Currently, we are using Heroku scheduler (because it doesn't need extra dyno/free) to schedule jobs. We need an ability to schedule them via HTTP POST or some other mechanism that we can trigger programmatically.

Any suggestions on how we can achieve this?

How to generate 2D array from a set of string in rails?

I need to generate 2D array in rails from a set of given strings. For example:

Rails 4 assets not loaded in production although work on local production server

My production server won't load any Rails assets. When I run

RAILS_ENV=production rails s 

I can see everything just fine. I even tried doing

RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rake assets:precompile

Still no luck

Here is my production.rb

config.action_controller.perform_caching = true
config.serve_static_files = false

Rails / Bootstrap / HAML - How to convert this code to display flash messages to HAML?

I want to convert the following code to HAML to handle Bootstrap's alert messages in a Rails 4.2.2 application. I've tried manually, using html2haml and online converters and the code I get never works.

The code:

<div class="alert 
    <%= 
    case type.to_sym 
    when :alert, :danger, :error, :validation_errors
        'alert-danger'
    when :warning, :todo
        'alert-warning'
    when :notice, :success
        'alert-success'
    else 
    'alert-info'
    end
    %>
     alert-dismissible" role="alert">
    <button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert"><span aria-hidden="true">&times;</span><span class="sr-only">Close</span></button>
    <%= content %>
</div>

This is what I get from converters:

.alert.case.when.:validation_errors.when.:todo.when.:success.else.end.alert-dismissible{:class => "<haml_loud> type.to_sym :alert, :danger, :error, 'alert-danger' :warning, 'alert-warning' :notice, 'alert-success' 'alert-info' </haml_loud>", :role => "alert"}
  %button.close{"data-dismiss" => "alert", :type => "button"}
    %span{"aria-hidden" => "true"} ×
    %span.sr-only Close
  = content

I know it's ugly but it is the only code I have found that works out of the box with Bootstrap 3.5.5. If anyone has suggestions for new code using HAML, I'm open to hear.

More ruby-like way of writing simple ActiveRecord code

Here is some fairly standard Ruby on Rails 4 ActiveRecord code:

  def hide(user)    
    self.hidden = true
    self.hidden_on = DateTime.now
    self.hidden_by = user.id
  end

  def unhide
    self.hidden = false
    self.hidden_on = nil
    self.hidden_by = nil
  end

  def lock(user)
    self.locked = true
    self.locked_on = DateTime.now
    self.locked_by = user.id
  end

  def unlock
    self.locked = false
    self.locked_on = nil
    self.locked_by = nil
  end

  # In effect this is a soft delete
  def take_offline(user)
    hide(user)
    lock(user)
  end

The code is easy to understand and doesn't try to be clever. However it feels verbose. What would be a more succinct or canonical way of specifying this code/behaviour?

How to reference a JS file from within application_helper

I have these files:

- app
-- assets
--- javascripts
---- controllers
----- company.js.coffee
----- projects.js.coffee

In my application.rb I got:

Rails.application.config.controllers_with_assets = %w( company projects )
Rails.application.config.controllers_with_assets.each do |controller|
  config.assets.precompile += ["controllers/#{controller}.js"]
end

In my application_helper I got this method set up:

def controller_assets
  controller = params[:controller]
  if Rails.application.config.controllers_with_assets.include? controller
    javascript_include_tag(asset_path('controllers/'+ controller))
  end
end

This is included in the layout so that js is only loaded if the appropriate controller is also active. This all works fine in development.

In production I can see that the JS files are correctly compiled.

/public/assets/controllers/company-28b5effa0fbec2899df9a18ab1b85975.js

In the view (browser) however I see that it failed to load:

GET http://ift.tt/1TVw0kO 

When I log in the console of the server and give this command:

Rails.application.assets.find_asset('controllers/company')
   => #<Sprockets::BundledAsset:0x5810768 pathname="/websites/instalane/production/releases/20150627231331/app/assets/javascripts/controllers/company.js.coffee", mtime=2015-06-27 14:21:45 +0000, digest="e7654520e52697294bb9e13ea09710e6"> 

What am I doing wrong?

FYI I already tried the following in the application_helper:

javascript_include_tag('controllers/'+ controller)

and

javascript_include_tag('controllers/'+ controller + '.js')

and

javascript_include_tag(controller)

Failing uniqueness validation with FactoryGirl

This is happening to me all over my app. I just copied some tests that apply to Customer.

Database migration stops halfway through

I've had issues trying to use PostgreSQL so changed my application to use MYSQL.

But, when I run rake db:migrate I get the following message before the migration stops:

-- PostgreSQL database dump complete

However when I run rake db:seed, I get told that I still have 303 migrations left. How can I complete this migration?

Status of Migration is Done

When I was migrating something on rails I got a problem. And now after I migrated it, the status went down. Is there anything I can do?

Rails 4 create model with nested attributes has_many

I have a many to many relationship with DoctorProfile and Insurance. I'd like to create these associations off of a form from a client side app. I'm sending back an array of doctor_insurances_ids and trying to create the association in one line. Is it possible to send back an array of doctor_insurances ids? If so what's the proper way to name it for mass assignment in the params?

The error I'm getting with the following code is

ActiveRecord::UnknownAttributeError: unknown attribute 'doctor_insurances_ids' for DoctorProfile.

class DoctorProfile
  has_many :doctor_insurances
  accepts_nested_attributes_for :doctor_insurances # not sure if needed

class Insurance < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :doctor_insurances

class DoctorInsurance < ActiveRecord::Base
  # only fields are `doctor_profile_id` and `insurance_id`
  belongs_to :doctor_profile
  belongs_to :insurance

def create
  params = {"first_name"=>"steve",
 "last_name"=>"johanson",
 "email"=>"steve@ymail.com",
 "password_digest"=>"password",
 "specialty_id"=>262,
 "doctor_insurances_ids"=>["44", "47"]}

  DoctorProfile.create(params)

end

Defining mailer in sorcery

I am building a rails app using sorcery. When I go to users/new, there is an Argument Error stating "To use reset_password submodule, you must define a mailer (config.reset_password_mailer = YourMailerClass)"

Went into config/initializers/sorcery.rb and included code user.reset_password_mailer = UserMailer but I am still receiving the error. Within the UserMailer class, I defined reset_password_email method

 def reset_password_email(user)
    @user = User.find user.id
    @url  = edit_password_reset_url(@user.reset_password_token)
      mail(:to => user.email,
           :subject => "Your password has been reset")
end

and updated the sorcery.rb file

user.reset_password_email_method_name = :reset_password_email

I am still receiving the same error message.

In the Users controller:

class UsersController < ApplicationController

  def index
    @users = User.all
  end

  def new
    @user = User.new
  end


  def create
    @user = User.new(user_params)
        if @user.save
            redirect_to products_url, notice: "Signed Up!"
        else
            render "new"
        end
  end

  def show
    @user = User.find(params[:id])
  end

  private

  def user_params
    params.require(:user).permit(:email, :user_name, :password, :password_confirmation)
  end

end

And my User model is:

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  authenticates_with_sorcery!
  has_many :projects

  validates :password, confirmation: true
  validates :password_confirmation, presence: true
  validates :email, uniqueness: true

end

Rails / Paperclip absolute_path from form?

I'm trying to save the absolute_path from the paperclip file attached in a rails form. I want to save it to the database for later use.

I read through the paperclip docs and can't find anything that I think will work. Ruby has a solution for File abstraction in the ruby-docs that I was able to get working in terminal but i'm not sure how to implement it with rails and paperclip in a form.

Any ideas would be appreciated...

Ultimately, the goal is to parse an xml file (nokogiri) and use the file path to tell paperclip where to find the images listed in the xml which are in the same folder.

Create a company and user in one, what's the standard?

I know a lot of startups and tech companies essentially allow you to register, and you end up registering a company and your user.

An example would be basecamp for example. I'd like to achieve the same thing, however I'm not quite certain on how they do it, and what the best way to do it is.

My thought is to have a user and company model, where on registration you register a company, and it accepts nested attributes for user. As in my head at least the relation is:

 User belongs_to :company
 Company has_many :users

and the registration is a Company#new with a company.user.build.

However for some reason this does feel a bit strange, as to me it would make more sense that you register a user, and create the company it belongs to.

I just want to lay the foundation right, so I don't start building anything massive on top of a system that isn't good.

Ruby on Rails Solving a No method Error

I'm currently going through Hartl's Ruby on Rails tutorial and I've come to a roadbloack with a failing test that I don't know how to get to pass. All of the previous tests through chapter 11 have ran correctly so I was hoping some one could help me interpret the errors.

Running:

bundle exec rake test

Gives me this

45 runs, 0 assertions, 0 failures, 45 errors, 0 skips

The first six errors are similar to this:

1) Error:
MicropostTest#test_should_be_valid:
ActiveRecord::Fixture::FormatError: ActiveRecord::Fixture::FormatError

And the rest of the errors follow this pattern:

7) Error:
UsersEditTest#test_unsuccessful_edit:
ActiveRecord::Fixture::FormatError: ActiveRecord::Fixture::FormatError


Error:
UsersEditTest#test_unsuccessful_edit:
NoMethodError: undefined method `each' for nil:NilClass

I'm not sure what an undefined method for a nil class would mean. If I need to post any more of my code/errors please let me know. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Why are this Rake task's depenencies being run out of order?

When running the following Rake task, :test is run after :staging.

namespace :deploy do    
  desc 'Deploy to staging'
  task :staging => [:test, :cucumber] do
    # do deployment things ...
  end    
end

Is this the expected behavior (I'm fairly certain it's not...) or is Rails doing something "clever" in its implementation of :test?

Env:

• Ruby 2.2.2
• Rails 4.1.12
• Rake 10.4.2

With Nested Resources in routes.rb with custom to_param, how can Strong Parameters allow created/update to permit?

I can't find something that'll lead in the right direction. Everyone else's similar issues with nested resources seems to resolve around accepts_nested_attributes_for… which I'm not trying to do. I'm not trying to save children from the parent, I'm trying to save directly from the child.

In my routes.rb, I have nested my resource

resources :parents, param: :parent do
  resources :children, param: :child
end

parent and child tables both have their own id column, but also have unique index on columns parent and child respectively, which I was to be used in the URL instead of the id.

http://ift.tt/1BJQ9Em

This is working fine browsing around going to the show, edit and index actions of each controller.

The problem is there are exceptions saving data.

I'm hoping the root-cause of the issue doesn't come down to a field in the child table is also called child as that's what I've used to override to_param in the model and need to keep it that way.

Navigating to the edit screen: http://ift.tt/1NmQwpd and pushing submit on the form, returns this NoMethodError exception:

NoMethodError at /parents/harry/children/sally
undefined method `permit' for "sally":String

I'm sure the problem is something to do with how my Strong Parameters line is in children_controller.rb. Can I add to require a hash of :parent and :child maybe?

def children_params
  params.require(:child).permit(:child, :date_of_birth, :nickname)
end

Updating message counter on private_pub publish

I am creating a chat module for my application and using private_pub for sending and receiving messages. I want to update the unread message counter on receiver's as soon as receiver gets the message.

Each page is subscribed to a channel where message gets published, so that every time I get the message, the counter on the page gets updated.

Following js file is executed when a new message is created.

<% publish_to conversation_messages_path(@conversation.id) do %>
    $("#messages").append("<%= escape_javascript render(:partial => 'message', :locals => { :message => @message })%>");
    $("#unread_messages_count").text("<%= current_user.received_messages.unread.size %>");
<% end %>
// @conversation.messages.where(:read => 0)
$("#newMessageForm")[0].reset();
$("#messages").scrollTop($("#messages")[0].scrollHeight);

The page gets updated but current_user.received_messages.unread.size gives me the sender's unread count, why is this so?

This means the current_user should be different for every other page who has subscribe_to that URL. As of now current_user is the one who publish_to that URL which results in the same value of unread messages count for every different client.

One possible solution is to send the user id of the one who is currently logged in while we subscribe_to a URL and in publish_to use that to get the unread messages count but the problem is I don't know how to send data while subscribing and using it in publish.

Is it possible to add html-attributes without values in rails link_to?

I want to output an a-tag like this:

<a href="#" itemscope class="features__cta button>Stuff</a>

I know I can add html-attributes like this to the tag, but how do I add one without a value to it?

<%= link_to t('features.cta'), t('features.cta_link') , class:
'features__cta button',  itemprop: "priceSpecification" %>

Rails render partial with progress bar

I'm running Rails 4 and am trying to use a bootstrap form wizard. The thing about the form wizard is that not all of its tabs should be displayed at all times.

The form wizard is in a partial that I render via $("#tab3").html("<%= j(render partial: 'wizard' ) %>"); in update_forms.js.erb (called via an ajax call).

Everything works well in this except the progress bar doesn't display (it is 0) unless I refresh the page. Any thoughts on how I can set the progress bar when rendering the partial?

Thanks!

What is the best way to store matrix in rails sqlite?

I need to create a new matrix in before_save model method. What is the best way to save this matrix, Dimension of the matrix could be max 50 * 50. How about if I store into Json?

class Simulation < ActiveRecord::Base
  before_save :create_matrix
  belongs_to :user
  validates_presence_of :name, :message => 'Name field cannot be empty..'

  def creat_matrix
    if self.is_matrix
     .....

Filter ActiveAdmin with Postgresql json column on specific json keys

I have a Deal model that features a json column called deal_info. It's actually an array of JSONs.

I'm using active admin.

For example :

deal1.deal_info = [ { "modal_id": "4", "text1":"lorem" }, 
          { "modal_id": "6", "video2":"yonak" },
          { "modal_id": "9", "video2":"boom" } ] 
deal2.deal_info = [ { "modal_id": "10", "text1":"lorem" }, 
          { "modal_id": "11", "video2":"yonak" },
          { "modal_id": "11", "image4":"boom" } ]

As first step now I would like to have a filter that would enable me to filter the deals based on the fact that deal_info json column includes at least one time the modal_id in one of its included json.

It would enable me in a select dropdown to choose for example modal_id = 6 and would filter the list of Deals to only show deal 1 (see example above).

One of the further challenge is that I need to be able to remove duplicates on the select dropdown in order not to have multiple times the same id: here for example i can't have select = [4,6,9,10,11,11]...each modal_id can only appear once.

I only found this but it did not work for me.

My current Active Admin Code

ActiveAdmin.register Deal do
  filter :modal_id,
  as: :select 
  collection: deal_info.all.to_a.map ????

I'd like to search items in my Rails.cache by their value. I'm having trouble finding out how to do this. Specifically, I'm using Active Model Serializer and would like to search through my AMS cache for keywords in their value. How do I do this?

Thanks!

Ruby csv - delete row if column is empty

Trying to delete rows from the csv file here with Ruby without success.

How can I tell that all rows, where column "newprice" is empty, should be deleted?

require 'csv' 
guests = CSV.table('new.csv', headers:true)

guests.each do |guest_row|
  p guests.to_s 
end

price = CSV.foreach('new.csv', headers:true) do |row|
  puts row['newprice'] 
end 

guests.delete_if('newprice' = '')

File.open('new_output.csv', 'w') do |f|
  f.write(guests.to_csv)
end

Thanks!

Gibbon / Mailchimp Signup Form

Having some trouble creating a simple signup form for a mailchimp list. Can't figure out why when they email passes through, it doesn't pass over to mailchimp.. thoughts? I'm sure I missed a step here.

index.html.erb (Form)

<%= form_tag('/welcome/subscribe', method: "post", id: "subscribe",) do -%>
<%= email_field(:email, :address, {id: "email", placeholder: "email address"}) %>
<%= submit_tag("Join!") %>
<% end %>

Gibbon.rb (Initializer)

Gibbon::API.api_key = "Secret API Key"
Gibbon::API.timeout = 15
Gibbon::API.throws_exceptions = false

Welcome.rb (Model)

def subscribe

@list_id = "Secret List ID"
gb = Gibbon::API.new

gb.lists.subscribe({
  :id => @list_id,
  :email => {:email => params[:email][:address]}
  })
end

Routes.rb

Rails.application.routes.draw do
root 'welcome#index'
post 'welcome/subscribe' => 'welcome#subscribe'
end

Service PHP in Rails

I have a small PHP service that is being called in a JavaScript file by AJAX :

$.ajax({
    type: "GET",
    url: "getDate.php",                 
    dataType:"json",
    data :{
        fromDate:fromDate,
        toDate:toDate
    },
    success: function(data) {
         ......
        }
});

This service contains :

$fromDate = $_GET['fromDate'];
$toDate = $_GET['toDate'];
$fromDate=date_create($fromDate);
$fromdate = date_format($fromDate,"Y-m-d")."T".date_format($fromDate,"H:i:s")."Z";
$fromdate = urlencode($fromdate);
$toDate=date_create($toDate);
$todate = date_format($toDate,"Y-m-d")."T23:00:00Z";
$todate = urlencode($todate);
$url = "http://ift.tt/1LByAtu".$fromdate."%27+and+time%3C%3D%27".$todate."%27";
$data = file_get_contents($url, false);
echo $data;

I need to use this in my Rails application. I was wondering if I could put the .php file in a Rails folder, and simply call it. Or if there's a way to do a similar service in Rails?

How to show error message on rails views?

I am newbie in rails and want to apply validation on form fields.

myviewsnew.html.erb

<%= form_for :simulation, url: simulations_path do |f|  %>

<div class="form-group">
  <%= f.label :Row %>
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-sm-2">
      <%= f.text_field :row, class: 'form-control' %>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Simulation.rb

class Simulation < ActiveRecord::Base
 belongs_to :user
 validates :row, :inclusion => { :in => 1..25, :message => 'The row must be between 1 and 25' }
end

I want to check the integer range of row field in model class and return the error message if it's not in the range.

Thanks in advance

Getting Rspec error no implicit conversion of Symbol into Integer with Mongoid

I'm tying to test my Rails app with Rspec, but I'm getting a no implicit conversion of Symbol into Integer error without any apparent reason. Based on the traceback I get I think the problem is related to Mongo/Mongoid, however, I can't figure out what it is exactly. The code runs perfectly in production. The error happens only when testing.

Brief look at the model without the other methods:

class Card
  include Mongoid::Document
  field :front, type: String
  field :back, type: String
  field :level, type: Integer, default: 1
  field :review_date, type: DateTime, default: DateTime.now

  embeds_one :card_statistic
  belongs_to :topic
  belongs_to :user

  validates :front, :back, :level, presence: true
  validates :topic, presence: { is: true, message: "must belong to a topic." }
  validates :user, presence: { is: true, message: "must belong to a user." }
  validates :level, numericality: { only_integer: true, greater_than: 0 }
end

One function in the model that triggers the error:

def self.reset(card)
    card.update(level: 1)
end

The test code:

it "puts the given card in level 1" do
    card = create(:card)
    Card.correct card
    card.reload
    Card.correct card
    card.reload
    expect(card.level).to eq(3)
    card.reset
    card.reload
    expect(card.level).to eq(1)
  end

Then, the traceback of the error I get:

1) Card puts the given card in level 1
     Failure/Error: Card.reset card
     TypeError:
       no implicit conversion of Symbol into Integer

The error is also triggered when testing the controllers. Even doing a get :index throws the error. Thanks in advance for your help.

Rails]Dynamically generate static pages

I want to be able to publish webpages with my rails app. In other words, there's a button that says "submit current page" and when the user presses this button, there should be a new page with its own url. When you make a new post, there's a new webpage generated at posts/1.

<div>
Save me at /pages/one
</div>
<button>Make</button>

<div>
Save me at /pages/second
</div>
<button>Make</button> <- upon pressing this, there should be a new static page

Is there a convention to follow?

Editable Webpage Table in Rails

I am trying to make a webpage with a calendar similar to the one in the following link:

But I need the page to be editable. I want the user to not only be able to change the contents of the table but also the table structure (Add columns etc). What strategy should I use to tackle this problem?

After that user clicks on any link the default flash message is comes up like Your session is expired. Please sign in again to continue.

This is fine, but below this another flash message is coming like "true" . I don't know from where it is coming from, how can I solve this?

Postgre error with Rails - I'm running locally but the database won't work properly)

Currently trying to install to run Catarse on my Mac (Yosemite)

When I try and run rake db:create db:migrate db:seed

I get the following message

ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: PG::DuplicateObject: ERROR:  role "admin" already exists
:     CREATE ROLE admin NOLOGIN;
    -- This script assumes a role postgrest and a role anonymous already created
GRANT usage ON SCHEMA postgrest TO admin;
GRANT usage ON SCHEMA "1" TO admin;
GRANT select, insert ON postgrest.auth TO admin;
GRANT select ON ALL TABLES IN SCHEMA "1" TO admin;
GRANT admin TO postgrest;

I have tried to do the above but to no avail, and now it's saying that I have a duplicate admin role. Can anybody please offer some guidance or assistance?

I've spent most of the day troubleshooting and looking at this over and over again in frustration by doing the following:

Uninstalling catarse Reinstalling and uninstalling postgresql Trying to implement the above 'GRANT' commands

Why is it too slow to fetch the records?

I'm using the gem called 'yourub' to fetch information of multiple videos narrowed down by particular keyword.

My code is just like this and it works fine but too slow until the result start showing up on the page.
Is it because I'm using the gem? Does it get faster if I do the same thing with native way of using "google-api-client" gem? If so how can I replace my original?

P.S. According to the document of 'yourub', it only can fetch up to 50 videos:( and it cannot even choose which page of the result to show with pagination select :(

My code(View)

<% client = Yourub::Client.new %>

<% client.search(query: "cat", order: "date", max_results: 30) do |video| %>

Video ID:<%= video["id"] %> <br />

has_many :through broke some code

So i'm relatively new to RoR, and am having some issues in trying to get my code back up and working. So previously I had users, and wikis that users could create. I've set up so that users can subscribe and get premium status to make wikis private. Now I'm in the process of making it so that Premium users can add standard users as collaborators to the wiki. I've decided to got about associating them through has_many :through relationships.

The issue I'm running into so that some of my buttons have started making errors that I don't understand. The one I'm stuck on right now is when showing the page that has a create new wiki button on it.

This is the error I am getting when I added the has_many through: relationship

No route matches {:action=>"new", :controller=>"wikis", :format=>nil, :user_id=>nil} missing required keys: [:user_id]

Here are the models:

collaborator.rb

class Collaborator < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :wiki
  belongs_to :user
end

user.rb

class User < ActiveRecord::Base

  ...

  has_many :collaborators
  has_many :wikis, :through => :collaborators

end

wiki.rb

class Wiki < ActiveRecord::Base

  belongs_to :user

  has_many :collaborators
  has_many :users, :through => :collaborators

end

The important bits of the wiki_controller.rb

def new
  @user = User.find(params[:user_id])
  @wiki = Wiki.new
  authorize @wiki
end

def create
  @user = current_user
  @wiki = @user.wikis.create(wiki_params)
  authorize @wiki
  if @wiki.save
    flash[:notice] = "Wiki was saved"
    redirect_to @wiki
  else
    flash[:error] = "There was an error saving the Wiki. Please try again"
    render :new
  end
end

And finally the show.html.erb file the button is located in.

<div class="center-align">
  <%= link_to "New Wiki", new_user_wiki_path(@user, @wiki), class: 'btn grey darken-1' %>
</div>

If I'm missing any files or relevant info please let me know. This may be a simple stupid answer but I'm stuck for the life of me.

Thanks in advance.

Edit:

Here is the requested added info, first up the show info in the users_controllers.rb

def show
  @wikis = policy_scope(Wiki)
end

the corresponding policy scope I'm using in the user_policy.rb

class UserPolicy < ApplicationPolicy

  class Scope
    attr_reader :user, :scope

    def initialize(user, scope)
      @user = user
      @scope = scope
    end

    def resolve
      wikis = []
      all_wikis = scope.all
      all_wikis.each do |wiki|
        if wiki.user == user || wiki.users.include?(user)
          wikis << wiki
        end
      end
    end
    wikis
  end

end

and the route.rb file

Rails.application.routes.draw do

  devise_for :users
  resources :users, only: [:update, :show] do
    resources :wikis, shallow: true
  end

  resources :wikis, only: [:index]
  resources :charges, only: [:new, :create]
  delete '/downgrade', to: 'charges#downgrade'

  authenticated do
    root to: "users#show", as: :authenticated
  end

  root to: 'welcome#index'

end

Hope it helps

Ruby on rails flash notice error

checkboxs in a table created via form_for

I'm new to RoR so apologies if the answer is super simple. I'm trying to create a table that allows users to select other users that can collaborate on a wiki. The issue I'm having is that no matter which checkbox you select on the table. It only toggles the topmost option.

here is the code in question:

<%= form_for [@wiki, @wiki.collaborators.build] do |f| %>
  <table class="bordered hoverable">
    <tbody>
      <% @users.each do |user| %>
        <tr>
          <td><%= user.name %></td>
          <td class="right-align"><%= f.check_box :user_id %><%= f.label :user_id, "Give Access" %></td>
        </tr>
      <% end %>  
    </tbody>
  </table><br /><br />

the controller values in new

def new
  @wiki = Wiki.find(params[:wiki_id])
  @collaborator = Collaborator.new
  @users = (User.all - [current_user])
end

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

rails join query between two tables with similar field

I have 3 models

class Company < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many : CompanyAccount
  has_many : CompanyContact
end

class CompanyContact < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to : Company
end

class CompanyAccount < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to : Company
end

As both the CompanyAccount and CompanyContact models belong to the Company model, they have a similar "company_id" field. I have retrieved some Accounts through a query:

@CompanyAccounts = CompanyAccount.where.not(balance:nil)

Now, using the common company_id field I am trying to retrieve all the data from my CompanyContacts table that belong to the same Company associated with the CompanyAccounts I queried above (in other words, I am trying to get the rows which have the same company_id). I have made several attempts using "joins" but everything failed so far. Could anyone give me what would be the appropriate syntax in this context? Thanks.

Rails force instance variable declaration before use on view

Is it possible to force Ruby/Rails to throw an error when printing/using instance variables on a view that haven't been defined on controller

I'm declaring an instance variable on a Rails Controller and I'm printing its value on a View

def controller_action
    @some_data = "some value"
end

Then we know we can print its value on a view

<p>Some data has <%= @some_data %></p>

My problem is when doing mistakes on a view like this:

<p>Some data has <%= @somedata %></p>

Ruby won't complain and it's difficult to find those mistakes. This also applies for team development where some programmer can create an instance variable on a controller with one name and another programmer expects to print it on a view but accidentally uses other name.

How to display error messages in a multi-model form with transaction?

Two models, Organization and User, have a 1:many relationship. I have a combined signup form where an organization plus a user for that organization get signed up.

The problem I'm experiencing is: When submitting invalid information for the user, it renders the form again, as it should, but the error messages (such as "username can't be blank") are not displayed. The form does work when valid information is submitted and it does display error messages for organization, just not for user.

How should I adjust the code below so that also the error messages for user get displayed?

def new
  @organization = Organization.new
  @user = @organization.users.build
end

def create
  @organization = Organization.new(new_params.except(:users_attributes))
  #Validations require the organization to be saved before user, as user requires an organization_id. That's why users_attributs are above excluded and why below it's managed in a transaction that rollbacks if either organization or user is invalid. This works as desired.

  @organization.transaction do
    if @organization.valid?
        @organization.save
        begin
          @organization.users.create!(users_attributes)
        rescue
          # Should I perhaps add some line here that adds the users errors to the memory?
          raise ActiveRecord::Rollback
        end
     end
  end

  if @organization.persisted?
    flash[:success] = "Yeah!"
    redirect_to root_url
  else
    @user = @organization.users.build(users_attributes) # Otherwise the filled in information for user is gone (fields for user are then empty)
    render :new
  end

end

The form view includes:

<%= form_for @organization, url: next_url do |f| %>
    <%= render 'shared/error_messages', object: f.object %>
    <%= f.text_field :name %>
        # Other fields

    <%= f.fields_for :users do |p| %>
        <%= p.email_field :email %>
            # Other fields
    <% end %>

    <%= f.submit "Submit" %>
<% end %>

The error messages partial is as follows:

<% object.errors.full_messages.each do |msg| %>
  <li><%= msg.html_safe %></li>
<% end %>

Heroku not updating website after successful deploy

I'm trying to deploy my app through Heroku, using Ruby on Rails, and I have been successful in the past but now when I use the same commands as before it will deploy successfully but when I visit my website it has not been updated with my new code.

Here are the commands I am using:

git add -A
git commit -m "message"
git push
git push heroku
heroku run rake db:migrate

I tried using "git push heroku master" as well based on another stack overflow thread but it didn't update my website either. Running the deployment only returns one warning and that is that my Ruby version is not declared so I don't think that would be an issue. I'd be happy to provide more information if I need to. Any information/help would be greatly appreciated.

How to load asset gems only for precompile on heroku?

Rails 4.1+, so there isn't built-in support for an :assets group

I want to keep Heroku's precompile on push behaviour, but don't want the asset gems loaded by the rails server. We don't use any kind of inline coffeescript or scss template rendering in the app, only in the assets, so it's just wasted memory at runtime.

I've played around with extending the rake task, configuring sprocket-rails, and even changing application.js to application.js.erb and adding things like

//= <% require 'jquery-rails' %> 
//= require 'jquery'

but still get these errors:

Sprockets::FileNotFound: couldn't find file 'jquery'

If I keep the asset gems in the default Gemfile group everything works fine.

The point here is to not have them loaded in the production environment, but to have

RAILS_ENV=production rake assets:precompile task 

load them before it executes (and fails because of missing libraries)

wrong singular for 'slaves'

I have a line resources :slaves in my routes.rb. Which is definitely plural for 'slave', but rails thinks that it's plural form of 'slafe', so I get paths like new_slafe_path. Is there a way to tell rails correct singular form without explicitly specifying each route?

Undefined method "errors"... But there are ERRORS

I am doing a basic validation for a bank entry and am trying to display the errors on submit. Here is my validation and html.

class GuestbookEntry < ActiveRecord::Base
  validates :body, presence: :true
end

This is my html:

<% form_for @guestbook_entry do |f| %>                                                                                   
  <% if @guestbook_entry.errors.any? %>                                                                                
    <% @guestbook_entry.errors.full_messages.each do |m| %>                                                                                         
      <li><%= m %></li>                                                                                          
    <% end %>                                                                                                   
  <% end %>                                                                                 
  <%= f.label :body, "Guestbook Entry:" %>                                                                                     
  <%= f.text_area :body %>                                                                                                         
  <%= f.submit "Submit" %>                                                                                     
<% end %>

Any ideas?

Rails 4.1 - Write to MySQL database without typecasting

I have a column in my MySQL database which is of type TINYINT(1). I need to store actual integers in this column. The problem is, because of the column type, Rails 4.1 assumes this column contains only boolean values, so it typecasts all values besides 0 or 1 to be 0 when it writes to the database.

I don't want to simply disable boolean emulation since we have a number of columns in our database where we use TINYINT(1) to actually represent a boolean value.

How can I force Rails 4.1 to bypass the typecasting step and write directly to the database instead?
