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 %>
Any ideas?
