Show/hide model contents in the context of other models - ruby-on-rails

so I have a Category model with a "has many" relationship to my Soup model.
Currently, I have my page rendering a list of Categories with the Soups within each below. The page output looks like this:
Ramen
*Soup 1
*Soup 2
Other Soups
*Soup 3
*Soup 4
I added the ability to click on the Category name to show/hide the Soups. But I'd like to have this functionality's scope limited to each Category. In other words, I'd like to have clicking "Ramen" show/hide Soup 1 and Soup 2 only. Right now, clicking any Category shows/hides all 4 Soups.
views> categories> index.html.erb
<ul id="folderList">
<% #categories.each do |category| %>
<li>
<img src="https://cdn4.iconfinder.com/data/icons/small-n-flat/24/folder-blue-128.png" alt="folder" width="10%">
<%= link_to category.name, '#', id: 'show_catcontents' %> (<%= category.soups.count%>)
<div id="catcontents">
<ul>
<%- category.soups.each do |soup| %>
<li><%= soup.name %></li>
<%- end %>
</ul>
</div>
</li>
<% end %>
</ul>
<script>
$(function() {
$('a#show_catcontents').click(function(event){
event.preventDefault();
$('div#catcontents').toggle();
});
});
</script>
Any and all help is appreciated

An easy way to do this while not changing all that much is to add an id to each of your elements to further specify them in your embedded ruby, and then hide that specific element rather than the whole catcontents <div> in your Javascript hide function.
For example:
<div id="catcontents">
<ul>
<%- category.soups.each do |soup| %>
<li id= <%= soup.name %> ><%= soup.name %></li>
<%- end %>
</ul>
</div>
And then of course just change your Javascript hide function to hide by the <li> id rather than the catcontents <div>.

How to use yield with dashboard sidebar to show contents on same page

I have a rails app with a functionality quite similar to yelp with a dashboard for customers where they can edit their place but also change their acccount settings, etc. A customer can only have one place for now.
I've created a dashboard controller, views with a partial for the sidebar and everything is working so far but my problem is that when clicking on a link in the sidebar it yields to the application.html.erb. I want to yield everything from the sidebar to the main part of the dashboard/index.html.erb
So my question is how do I yield the things I click in my sidebar to the part on the right next to the sidebar on the page. Basically the functionality is like a navbar on top (only for logged in customers) but I get confused with two yields. I tried "content_for" and <%= yield :sidebar %> but didn't figure out how to get it working yet. Also I am using devise with a user and customer model which share the views and have the functionality for the customer to edit his user account in the dashboard sidebar which might cause a problem with "content_for"?
Please note that I am still learning ruby on rails and am very happy for any kind of input!
dashboard_controller.rb
def index
#place = Place.where(customer_id: current_customer.id).first
end
dashboard/index.html.erb
<div class="content">
<div class="sidebar">
<%= render 'dashboard/sidebar' %>
</div>
<div class="main">
<%= yield %>
</div>
</div>
_sidebar.html.erb
<li class="nav-link">
<%= link_to "<span class='fa fa-cog'></span> Edit".html_safe, edit_place_path(#place) %>
</li>
<li class="nav-link">
<%= link_to "<span class='fa fa-cog'</span> Settings".html_safe, edit_customer_registration_path %>
</li>
<li class="nav-link">
<%= link_to "<span class='fa fa-sign-out'></span> Log Out".html_safe, destroy_customer_session_path, method: :delete %>
</li>
application.html.erb
<body>
<%= render 'layouts/shared/header' unless #disable_navbar %>
<%= yield %>
<%= render 'layouts/shared/footer' unless #disable_footer %>
</body>
Within the context of a layout, yield identifies a section where content
from the view should be inserted.
http://guides.rubyonrails.org/layouts_and_rendering.html#understanding-yield
So no - yield will not "yield" to your dashboard/index.html.erb. Rather if you want it to have a different layout you should create a layout.
Lets look at an example:
<% # app/views/layouts/application.html.erb %>
<body>
<nav id="top-menu">
<h1><%= link_to 'MyApp', root_path %></h1>
<ul>
<%= yield :nav_links %>
<%# lets provide some default content for nav_links %>
<% content_for :nav_links do %>
<li><%= link_to 'Products', products_path %></li>
<% end %>
</ul>
</nav>
<div id="main">
<%= yield %>
</div>
</body>
Here we create a named yield in the layout called :nav_links and also add some "default" content with content_for :nav_links.
So lets look at what happens when we render /products/index.html.erb:
<div class="products">
<% if #products.any? %>
<%= render #products %>
<% else %>
<p>No products are available at this time</p>
<% end %>
</div>
<%# we also want to add a contextual navigation link %>
<% content_for(:nav_links) do %>
<li><%= link_to 'Sales', sales_path %></li>
<% end %>
The rendered result is:
<body>
<nav id="top-menu">
<h1>MyApp</h1>
<ul>
<li>Products</li>
<li>Sales</li>
</ul>
</nav>
<div id="main">
<div class="products">
<p>No products are available at this time</p>
</div>
</div>
</body>
Rails inserts the content from the view into the "main" layout and the content from content_for(:nav_links) is concatenated into the buffer.
Also I am using devise with a user and customer model which share the
views and have the functionality for the customer to edit his user
account in the dashboard sidebar which might cause a problem with
"content_for"?
The only problem you may have is a "namespace collision" - if you are using yield :sidebar and a gem for example is also using the same name for a yield you may have unexpected results.

Render an attributes of each object - Rails

I have a view right now that renders an object on the page. The object is an Integration. On the Integration object I have attribute called filters. Filters are stored as an array. All I need to do is list out the filters of each integration below them in a list. Here is my code.
View
<% if #integrations.any? %>
<div class="configured-integrations">
<h3 class="heading-3">My Configured Integrations:</h3>
<ul class="integration-list integration-list--compact">
<%= render #integrations %>
</ul>
</div>
<% end %>
Screenshot
In the screenshot you can see that each of those elements are integrations. I need to list the filters of each integration below the title there.
Controller
def index
# Get the list of the user's integrations grouped first by provider then
# from oldest to newest."
#integrations = current_account.integrations
.order(type: :asc, created_at: :asc)
end
I hope this is clear enough. So recap: I need to list the filters on each integration below. I've already tried stuff like this #integrations.first.filters but that wont work because it's a static call. I need something like a list. Thank you
You can add another partial to render all filters which are associated with your Integration.
Create a partial file _show_filters.html.erb in your views
<% filters.each do |filter| %>
<li><%= filter %></li>
<% end %>
And render this partial while iterating through your #integration object like this.
<% if #integrations.any? %>
<div class="configured-integrations">
<h3 class="heading-3">My Configured Integrations:</h3>
<ul class="integration-list integration-list--compact">
<% #integrations.each do |integration| %>
<li>
<%= integration %>
<ul class="">
<%= render 'show_filters', filters: integration.filters %>
</ul>
</li>
<% end %>
</ul>
</div>
<% end %>
What you need to iterate through each integration, then <%= render integeration.filters %>
<% if #integrations.any? %>
<div class="configured-integrations">
<h3 class="heading-3">My Configured Integrations:</h3>
<ul class="integration-list integration-list--compact">
<% #integrations.each do |integration| %>
<li>
<%= integration %>
<ul class="">
<%= render integration.filters %>
</ul>
</li>
<% end %>
</ul>
</div>
<% end %>
You will have to update this code to make the partials work, but i hope this gets the idea across.
You can't use the shortcut <%= render #integrations %> here, because you want a subgroup inside #integrations. So you'll have to do it the long way.

Ruby on rails - Changing hyperlinks to table columns

I've made a list with hyper links to columns in a table called "Categories", there are 5 categories and the first set of code below makes hyperlinks to all 5.
I want to make a dropdown menu, but only show two of the categories, instead of all 5. Currently, i'm just using a href to the url, but is there some other way I can link to two columns in the "Categories" table?
Links:
<ul>
<% Category.all.each do |category| %>
<li><%= link_to category.name, items_path(category: category.name) %></li>
<% end %>
</ul>
Dropdown Menu:
<div class="container">
<div class="dropdown">
<button class="btn btn-primary dropdown-toggle" type="button" data-toggle="dropdown">Canon
<span class="caret"></span></button>
<ul class="dropdown-menu">
<li>Canon Cameras</li>
<li>Canon Lenses</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
Use take() or limit() methods to limit how many items you want to get:
<ul>
<% Category.take(2).each do |category| %>
<li><%= link_to category.name, items_path(category: category.name) %></li>
<% end %>
</ul>
With respect to your question "can link to two columns in the "Categories" table?" - Please find my comment as:
SQL Approach:
SELECT CONCAT('', "name", "title") AS "name" FROM categories;
Rails Approach: <%= link_to "#{category.name} #{category.title}", items_path(category: category.name) %>

dynamic bootstrap tabs with rails

I am trying to get rails to generate dynamic navigation tabs that refer to groups user is enrolled at. Basically, what I want to achieve is to dynamically have tabs named after groups that user is enrolled at (which is working fine) and then showing the content of each group by clicking on its tab (which is not working properly for some reason). The page loads data correctly but toggling between tabs doesn't work
Here is the code in the view
<div class="tabbable tabs-left">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-4">
<ul class="nav nav-pills nav-stacked">
<% current_user.group.each do |group| %>
<li><a href="#<%= group.name %>" data-toggle="tab">
<%=group.name %></a></li>
<% end %>
</ul>
</div>
<div class="col-md-8">
<div class="tab-content">
<% current_user.group.each do |group| %>
<div class="tab-pane fade <%= 'in active' if current_user.group.first == group %>" id="<%=group.name%>">
<% if current_user.group_feed(group.id).any? %>
<ol class="microposts">
<%= render current_user.group_feed(group.id) %>
<%= group.name %>
</ol>
<% end %>
</div>
<% end %>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Is there something that I am missing?
The problem is group.name producing an invalid html id attribute.
html ids should not start with a number(numbers anywhere else are ok), and have no spaces. Example:
Invalid:
1foo
aaa b
Valid:
foo1
aaa-b
group.name.parameterize will remove any odd chars(#£$ etc) and replace spaces with "-" so use that.
You also want to make this unique as things with names like: "foo" and "foo!" will parameterize to the same thing: "foo".
I'd go with:
id="<%=(group.name.gsub(/[0-9]+/, "")+group.id.to_s).parameterize%>"
This code, removes any number from the name(it only really applies at the start of the id) then adds the id on the end making it unique.

Spliting and formatting an array of strings into list items on layout

I have a two-way many to many relationship between work and category models. When I pluck the categoies to show on my work#index
HTML:
<% #works.each do |work| %>
<article class="work-item" data-project="<%= work.id %>">
<header class="w-article-title ">
<%=raw work.svg %>
<h1 class="article-name"><%= work.name %></h1>
<ul class="categories-total n-visible">
<li><%= work.categories.pluck(:name) %></li>
</ul>
</header>
</a>
</article>
<% end %>
It ends up returning an array of strings like:
["Visual Design", "Strategy + UX", "UxD"]
How can I make the layout display:
indiviual list items?
Remove the brackets
trim the "" off the string
<ul class="categories-total n-visible">
<% work.categories.pluck(:name).each do |n| %>
<li><%= n %></li>
<% end %>
</ul>
