Relationship models in rails - ruby-on-rails

Question

Im associating models and im stuck i have my Restaurant controller
before_action :set_restaurant, only: [:show, :edit, :update, :destroy]
def new
#restaurant = Restaurant.new
#restaurant.build_chef
end
def create
#restaurant = Restaurant.new(restaurant_params)
respond_to do |format|
if #restaurant.save
format.html { redirect_to #restaurant, notice: 'Restaurant was successfully created.' }
format.json { render action: 'show', status: :created, location: #restaurant }
else
format.html { render action: 'new' }
format.json { render json: #restaurant.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity }
end
end
end
def set_restaurant
#restaurant = Restaurant.find(params[:id])
end
def restaurant_params
params.require(:restaurant).permit(:avatar, :name, :description,
chef_attributes: [ :avatar, :name ]
)
end
And this is my _form that im rendering in create.html.erb
<%= form_for(#restaurant, multipart: true) do |f| %>
<div class="field">
<%= f.label :restaurant_name %>
<%= f.text_field :name %>
</div>
<div class="field">
<%= f.label :description %>
<%= f.text_field :description %>
</div>
<div class="field">
<%= f.label :image %>
<%= f.file_field :avatar %>
</div>
<%= f.fields_for :chef do |f| %>
<div class="field">
<%= f.label :chef_name %>
<%= f.text_field :name %>
</div>
<div class="field">
<%= f.label :image %>
<%= f.file_field :avatar %>
</div>
<% end %>
<div class="actions">
<%= f.submit 'Add new restaurant' %>
<%= link_to 'Nevermind', restaurants_path, class: 'button' %>
</div>
<% end %>
then this is my Chef model
class Chef < ApplicationRecord
belongs_to :restaurant
validates :name, presence: true
validates :avatar,
attachment_content_type: { content_type: /\Aimage\/.*\Z/ },
attachment_size: { less_than: 5.megabytes }
has_attached_file :avatar, styles: {
thumb: '100x100>',
square: '200x200#',
medium: '300x300>'
}
end
and this is my Restaurant model
class Restaurant < ApplicationRecord
has_one :chef
accepts_nested_attributes_for :chef
validates :name, presence: true
validates :avatar,
attachment_content_type: { content_type: /\Aimage\/.*\Z/ },
attachment_size: { less_than: 5.megabytes }
has_attached_file :avatar, styles: {
thumb: '100x100>',
square: '200x200#',
medium: '300x300>'
}
end
My problem is that when i save a new restauran, nothing happens just reloads and stay in the form, i dont know whats happening im stuck here, probably its just a dumb thing to do but im learning, thanks for the support.

It looks like your problem is related to this question. In Rails 5, there is an implicit validation on belongs_to associations, so you need to add required: false in order to build it from nested attributes.
class Chef < ApplicationRecord
belongs_to :restaurant, required: false
...
end
