I'm trying to only show errors in my form when the user clicks the submit button but currently, it is displaying all errors before the user clicks the submit button. How do I only show errors when the user submits the form?
I'm using simple-form in Rails
Here is my simple-form:
<div class="col-md-10 col-lg-8 col-xl-5 col-md-offset-4 mx-auto">
<%= simple_form_for #customer, url: customers_path, method: :post do |f| %>
<%= f.error_notification %>
<%= f.input :first_name %>
<%= f.input :last_name %>
<%= f.input :email, input_html: { autocomplete: 'email' } %>
<%= f.input :budget, collection: ["€200,000 - €299,999", "€300,000 - €399,999", "€400,000 - €499,999", "€500,000 - €649,999", "€650,000 - €799,999", "€800,000 - €1,000,000", "€1,000,000 +"] %>
<%= f.input :comments, :as => :text, :input_html => { 'rows' => 10, 'cols' => 10 } %>
<%= f.button :submit, "Submit", class: "btn-primary trigger mt-1" %>
<% end %>
</div>
Here are my customer validations in my customer model:
class Customer < ApplicationRecord
validates :email, presence: true, format: { with: URI::MailTo::EMAIL_REGEXP }, uniqueness: true
validates :first_name, presence: true, length: { minimum: 2 }
validates :last_name, presence: true, length: { minimum: 2 }
validates :budget, presence: true
validates :comments, presence: true
end
Thank you
you can change simple_form_for (line 2) like this below
<%= simple_form_for #customer, html: { novalidate: true }, url: customers_path, method: :post do |f| %>
explanation:
by adding , html: { novalidate: true } This option adds a new novalidate property to the form, instructing it to skip all HTML 5 validation.
Am new to RoR and Simple_form. I have a simple set-up where I have an association between 2 classes. The form I use is not updating/saving and always setting the value back to blank. Looked at the docs and other postings, what am I doing wrong?
Classes
class Annotation < ApplicationRecord
has_many :comments, dependent: :destroy
belongs_to :documenttype
has_attached_file :file, styles: { large: "600x600>", medium: "500x500>", thumb: "150x150#" }, default_url: "/images/:style/missing.png"
accepts_nested_attributes_for :documenttype
validates_attachment_content_type :file, content_type: ['image/jpeg', 'image/png', 'image/gif', 'application/pdf']
validates :name, presence: true, uniqueness: true, length: { minimum: 10, maximum: 50 }
validates :description, length: { minimum: 20, maximum: 500 }
validates :documenttype, presence: true
validates :file, presence: true
end
class Documenttype < ApplicationRecord
has_many :annotations
validates :name, presence: true, uniqueness: true, length: { minimum: 5 }
end
Params
def annotation_params
params.require(:annotation).permit(:name, :description, :file, :active, :documenttype)
end
def documenttype_params
params.require(:documenttype).permit(:name, :description, :active, annotation_attributes: [:id, :name])
end
This is the form...
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
<%= simple_form_for #annotation, html: { class: 'form-horizontal', multipart: true },
wrapper: :horizontal_form,
wrapper_mappings: {
check_boxes: :horizontal_radio_and_checkboxes,
radio_buttons: :horizontal_radio_and_checkboxes,
file: :horizontal_file_input,
boolean: :horizontal_boolean
} do |f| %>
<%= f.error_notification %>
<%= f.input :name, placeholder: 'Enter name' %>
<%= f.input :description, placeholder: 'Description' %>
<%= f.association :documenttype %>
<%= f.input :active, as: :boolean %>
<% if #annotation.file.blank? %>
<%= f.input :file, as: :file %>
<% else %>
<% end %>
<%= f.button :submit %>
<% unless #annotation.file.blank? %>
<%= link_to ' Annotate', annotations_path, :class => "btn btn-default" %>
<% end -%>
<% end %>
<p><br><%= link_to 'List' , annotations_path %></p>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<% unless #annotation.file.blank? %>
<%= image_tag #annotation.file.url(:large) %>
<% end %>
</div>
</div>
I found the solution; I needed to add :documenttype_id to annotation_params.
I'm newbie and need help on reviewing my code.
The form data can't be saved and flash success message is not showing either.
this is what's showing up in rails server:

Thank you so much for your help
When you look into the log that you posted, you can see there is an Unpermitted parameter: last_name. This is because in the form you have last_name and in the registration_params method you have lastname.
Changing lastname to last_name in registration_params should solve your problem.
Since you're new, I have some suggestions (#Pavan's answer is correct).
The reason you've got the problem is because you're requiring :last_name to be present with a validation:
#app/models/registration.rb
class Registration < ActiveRecord::Base
validates :name, presence: true, length: { minimum: 5, maximum: 19 }
validates :last_name, presence: true, length: { minimum: 5, maximum: 19 }
validates :address, presence: true
validates :date_of_birth, presence: true VALID_EMAIL_REGEX = /\A([\w+\-].?)+#[a-z\d\-]+(\.[a-z]+)*\.[a-z]+\z/i
validates :email, presence: true, length: { maximum: 105 }, uniqueness: { case_sensitive: false }, format: { with: VALID_EMAIL_REGEX }
validates :suburb, presence: true
validates :state, presence: true
validates :post_code, presence: true
validates :telephone, presence: true
validates :reference, presence: true
validates :news_letter, presence: true
validates :occupation, presence: true
validates :exercise_routine, presence: true
validates :body_conditions, presence: true
validates :past_medical_history, presence: true, length: { minimum: 5, maximum: 500 }
validates :medication, presence: true, length: { minimum: 5, maximum: 500 }
validates :symptoms, presence: true, length: { minimum: 5, maximum: 500 }
validates :other_experience, presence: true, length: { minimum: 5, maximum: 500 }
validates :preference, presence: true
validates :body_area, presence: true
validates :terms_of_service, presence: true
end
Although this is great, it means that if you don't pass that parameter, Rails will come back with an error. Errors are stored in the errors method attached to your returned object:
#app/views/registrations/new.html.erb
<%= form_for #registration do |f| %>
<% if #registration.errors.any? %>
<% #registration.errors.full_messsages do |message| %>
<%= message %>
<% end %>
<% end %>
<% end %>
This will return the error messages from your model.
#app/controllers/registrations_controller.rb
class RegistrationsController < ApplicationController
def create
#registration = Registration.new(registration_params)
redirect_to root_path, success: "Your registration was created" if #registration.save
# will render "new" if errors
end
end
Secondly, you can clean up your model massively by declaring multiple validations (if they're the same):
#app/models/registration.rb
class Registration < ActiveRecord::Base
VALID_EMAIL_REGEX = /\A([\w+\-].?)+#[a-z\d\-]+(\.[a-z]+)*\.[a-z]+\z/i
validates :name, :last_name, presence: true, length: { minimum: 5, maximum: 19 }
validates :email, presence: true, length: { maximum: 105 }, uniqueness: { case_sensitive: false }, format: { with: VALID_EMAIL_REGEX }
validates :past_medical_history, :medication, :symptoms, :other_experience, presence: true, length: { minimum: 5, maximum: 500 }
validates :date_of_birth, :address, :suburb, :state, :post_code, :telephone, :reference, :news_letter, :occupation, :exercise_routine, :body_conditions, :preference, :body_area, :terms_of_service, presence: true
end
Thirdly, your model needs to be called by the object name it reflects.
Ruby is an object orientated language, which means that everything you do with the system should be scoped around objects.
As a beginner, this won't matter; as you progress, you'll realize the importance of having...
#user = User.find x
#user.do_some_action
... thus, when you have Registration, if that's the nature of the data you're storing, it's great. If it isn't, you'll be best suited changing its name to something like User or Applicant etc.
Lastly, you need to cut down on all the data you're storing in one model.
You can split your model into about 2 others:
#app/models/registration.rb
class Registration < ActiveRecord::Base
has_one :address
has_one :preference
accepts_nested_attributes_for :address, :preference
end
#app/models/address.rb
class Address < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :registration
end
#app/models/preference.rb
class Preference < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :registration
end
This will allow you to pass multiple sets of data, rather than keeping it all in the same model:
#app/controllers/registrations_controller.rb
class RegistrationsController < ApplicationController
def new
#registration = Registration.new
#registration.build_address
#registration.build_preference
end
end
#app/views/registrations/new.html.erb
<%= form_for #registration do |f| %>
<%= f.fields_for :address do |a| %>
<%= a.text_field :address %>
<% end %>
<% end %>
You can read up more about accepts_nested_attributes_for here.
not sure if you have missed some of your form code but there needs to be
<%= f.submit "Submit" %>
<% end %>
..also, your flash messages are working in the background but you need to create a place for them to show up. Go to your application.html.erb in your layouts folder and after the opening body tag add:
<% flash.each do |key, value| %>
<%= content_tag :div, value, class: "#{key}" %>
<% end %>
I know I must be missing something simple. I have a model that contains a validate_confirmation_of. I know it works in my model (I've tested it using the console) but for some reason, it seems the confirmation field on the form isn't linking into my model correctly and so the model thinks the confirmation field is blank and thus skips the validate.
Model
class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
enum status: { suspended: 0, pending_validation: 1, pending_setup: 2, registered: 3, unknown: 99 }
EMAIL_REGEX = /\A[a-z0-9._%+-]+#[a-z0-9.-]+\.[a-z]{2,4}\Z/i
validates :first_name, :presence => true, :length => { :maximum => 255 }
validates :last_name, :presence => true, :length => { :maximum => 255 }
validates :email_address, :presence => true, :length => { :maximum => 255 }, :uniqueness => true, :format => { :with => EMAIL_REGEX }, :confirmation => true
validates :country_code, :presence => true
end
View
<%= form_for #person, url: { action: 'create' } do |f| %>
<fieldset class="registration">
<legend>Your Information</legend>
<div class="group column-1">
<%= label_tag('First Name') %> <span class="required">*</span>

<% end %>
Controller
def create
#person = Person.new(register_params)
#person.status = 'pending_validation'
if #person.save

else
render('register')
end
end
private
def register_params
params.require(:person).permit(:first_name, :last_name, :email_address, :display_name, :country_code)
end
As you can see, in my view I have a "email_address_confirmation" text_field. I created it the way I created all the other fields and they all work fine so for the life of me I can't figure out what is wrong with the code. But when I submit the page, no matter what I put in the confirmation field, the confirmation validate never fires.
In case it matters, I'm using Rails 4.2.0 and Ruby 2.1.5p273.
You need to add this in your model:
validates :email_address_confirmation, presence: true
According to Rails guides:
This (confirmation) check is performed only if email_confirmation is not nil.
Also make changes in your controller's method register_params, you miss email_address_confirmation field in permit parameters:
def register_params
params.require(:person).permit(:first_name, :last_name, :email_address, :email_address_confirmation, :display_name, :country_code)
end
I have a job listing project set up and I want to be able to filter by several filters. I want to be able to have sidebar which can filter by certain elements - :city, :jobtype, and :contracttype
Is there a straightforward way to create radio buttons that will display the options available to the user i.e for :city a list of London, Manchester, Brighton etc which can be ticked to display those specific jobs?
I'm new to rails so having a hard time working out what I need to do, if anyone could explain what I need to do I'd really appreciate it!
My code is as follows:
index.html.erb -
<% #jobs.each do |job| %>
<div class="job">
<h2><%= job.position %></h2>
<p>Company: <%= job.company %></p>
<p>Salary: <%= job.salary %></p>
<p>Website: <%= job.companywebsite %></p>
<p>Twitter: <%= job.companytwitter %></p>
<p>Contract Type: <%= job.contract %></p>
<p>City: <%= job.city %></p>
<p>Expiry date: <%= job.expirydate %></p>
<p>Job Type: <%= job.jobtype %></p>
<p>Full Description:<br><br><%= job.description %></p>
<p>How to apply: <%= job.apply %></p>
</div>
<% end %>
job.rb -
class Job < ActiveRecord::Base
validates :position, presence: true
validates :company, presence: true
validates :salary, presence: true
validates :companywebsite, presence: true
validates :companytwitter, presence: true
validates :contract, presence: true
validates :city, presence: true
validates :expirydate, presence: true
validates :jobtype, presence: true
validates :description, presence: true
validates :apply, presence: true
end
jobs_controller.erb -
class JobsController < ApplicationController
def index
#jobs = Job.page(params[:page]).per(25)
end
def new
#job = Job.new
end
def create
#job = Job.new(params.require(:job).permit(:position, :company, :salary, :companywebsite, :companytwitter, :contract, :city, :expirydate, :jobtype, :description, :apply ))
if #job.save
redirect_to root_path
else
render "new"
end
end
end
new.html.erb -
<%= simple_form_for #job, html: { multipart: true } do |form| %>
<%= form.input :position, input_html: { maxlength: 60 }, placeholder: "Job Position", label: false %>
<%= form.input :company, input_html: { maxlength: 60 }, placeholder: "Company name", label: false %>
<%= form.input :salary, input_html: { maxlength: 60 }, placeholder: "Salary", label: false %>
<%= form.input :companywebsite, input_html: { maxlength: 60 }, placeholder: "Company Website", label: false %>
<%= form.input :companytwitter, input_html: { maxlength: 60 }, placeholder: "Twitter Handle e.g #Hatch_Inc", label: false %>
<%= form.input :contract, input_html: { maxlength: 60 }, placeholder: "Contract Type", label: false %>
<%= form.input :city, input_html: { maxlength: 60 }, placeholder: "City", label: false %>
<%= form.input :expirydate, input_html: { maxlength: 60 }, placeholder: "Expiry date", label: false %>
<%= form.input :jobtype, input_html: { maxlength: 60 }, placeholder: "Job Type", label: false %>
<%= form.input :description, input_html: { maxlength: 60 }, placeholder: "Full job description", label: false %>
<%= form.input :apply, input_html: { maxlength: 60 }, placeholder: "How to apply", label: false %>
<%= form.button :submit %>
<% end %>
Here's an example that uses JQuery to submit an AJAX request (so your page doesn't refresh every time a box is checked). In your view, you create a checkbox for each unique country. Jquery parameterizes the selected countries and submits them to your controller (specifying that you want to respond with JavaScript). A scope in your Jobs model applies the filter.
index.html.erb
<div id='job-list'>
<% #jobs.each do |job| %>
<div class="job">
<!-- Display your job here -->
</div>
<% end %>
</div>
<div id='countries'>
<h4> Country Filter: </h4>
<% #countries= Job.uniq.pluck(:country) %>
<% #countries.each do |c| %>
<br><input id="<%= c %>" type="checkbox" class="country-select" checked><label for="<%= c %>"> <%= c %> </label>
<% end %>
</div>
index.js.erb
var jobs = $('#job-list');
jobs.empty();
<% #jobs.each do |job|%>
jobs.append("<div class='job'><%= job %></div>"); // job display goes here
<% end %>
courses.coffee
getParams = ->
params = ""
countries = []
$(".country-select:checked").each ->
countries.push($(this).attr('id'))
params += "&#{$.param({countries: countries})}";
return params
$('.country-select').on 'change', (event) =>
$.ajax "/jobs.js?"+getParams(),
type: 'GET'
dataType: 'script'
Jobs controller
class JobsController < ApplicationController
respond_to :html, :js
def index
#jobs = Job.page(params[:page]).per(25).by_country(params[:countries])
end
end
Job model
class Job < ActiveRecord::Base
scope :by_country, -> (countries) { where(:country => (countries|| Course.uniq.pluck(:country)) ) }
end
