I'm trying to access products through promotion but can't.
In the command line: Promotion.last.promotion_rules.first.products
Returns an error of an uninitialized constant.
Here are my associations:
class Product
has_many :product_promotion_rules, class_name: 'ProductPromotionRule'
has_many :promotion_rules, through: :product_promotion_rules
end
class ProductPromotionRule
belongs_to :product
belongs_to :promotion_rule
end
class PromotionRule
has_many :product_promotion_rules, class_name: 'ProductPromotionRule', join_table: 'products_promotion_rules', foreign_key: :promotion_rule_id
has_many :products, through: :product_promotion_rules
belongs_to :promotion
end
class Promotion
has_many :promotion_rules
end
Within the Product model try:
has_many :product_promotion_rules, class_name: 'ProductPromotionRule', foreign_key: :product_id
has_many :promotion_rules, through: :product_promotion_rules, source: :promotion_rule
And within the PromotionRule model:
has_many :products, through: :product_promotion_rules, source: :product
Update: saw this, which you may want to remove/fix:
join_table: products_promotion_rules
Either change to:
join_table: product_promotion_rules
Or try removing it.

I have a User model and a relationship table called ParentsChildren.
I'm trying to create two relationships on the User model so that User#children returns all of a users children and User#parents returns all of a users parents.
I've managed to get this working before, but I'm doing something wrong right this time, and I'm not sure what it is exactly.
class ParentsChildren < ApplicationRecord
self.table_name = 'parents_children'
belongs_to :parent_user, class_name: 'User'
belongs_to :child_user, class_name: 'User'
end
class User
has_many :parent_relationships, class_name: 'ParentsChildren', foreign_key: :parent_user_id
has_many :child_relationships, class_name: 'ParentsChildren', foreign_key: :child_user_id
has_many :children, through: :parent_relationships, class_name: 'User', source: :child_user
has_many :parents, through: :child_relationships, class_name: 'User', source: :parent_user
end
# => uninitialized constant ParentsChildren::ChildUser
Figured it out. The key was to drop 'User' as the class name for has_many :parents and has_many :users. It's inferred through the given sources.
class User
has_many :parent_relationships, foreign_key: :child_user_id,
class_name: 'ParentsChildren'
has_many :children, through: :parent_relationships,
source: :parent_user
has_many :child_relationships, foreign_key: :parent_user_id,
class_name: 'ParentsChildren'
has_many :parents, through: :child_relationships,
source: :child_user
end
I have a User model:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :tracks, dependent: :destroy
has_many :tracked_locations, through: :tracks, source: :tracking, source_type: 'Location'
and a Track model (think of it as 'following'):
class Track < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :user
belongs_to :tracking, polymorphic: true
end
The idea here is I will have many models to track / follow so I am using polymorphism. For example I have a Location model:
class Location < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :tracks, :as => :tracking, :dependent => :destroy
has_many :users, through: :tracks
Now in the console Location.first.users works fine along with User.first.tracked_locations.
Now I will be adding another polymorphic relationship along the lines of Flagged. The user can 'flag' another model with a note etc. So if I add has_many :users, through: :flagged to the Location model for example I need to differentiate between tracking users and flagged users.
I tried:
has_many :tracking_users, through: :tracks, source: :tracking, source_type: 'User'
but I get:
NoMethodError: undefined method `evaluators_for' for #<Location:0x007ff29e5409c8>
Can I even do this or am I missing something simple here?
UPDATE
Based on the answer below I figured it out:
has_many :tracking_users, through: :tracks, class_name: "User", foreign_key: "user_id", source: :user
I'm not 100% on this, but you could try:
has_many :tracking_users, through: :tracks, class_name: "User", foreign_key: "user_id", source: :user
Or you could also just create a class method and do it by hand.
def self.tracking_users
user_ids = tracks.collect(&:user_id)
User.where(id: user_ids)
end
edit: Had a brainfart, changed the "source" up there to :user. That tells what table to actually do the lookup in with the other attribute you've provided. of course it wouldn't be in :tracks
I have four models:
User
Listing
Order
OrderGroup
User:
has_many :listings
has_many :orders
Listing:
belongs_to :seller, class_name: "User", foreign_key: :user_id
has_many :order_groups, through: :orders
has_many :orders
Order:
has_one :seller, through: :listing
belongs_to :listing
belongs_to :order_group
OrderGroup:
has_many :listings, through: :orders
has_many :orders
has_many :sellers, through: :orders
When I try to pull Order.where(seller: User.find(3)), I get an empty collection. However, when I do Order.last.seller, I get the seller's user_id.
How can I pull Order.where(seller: User.find(3))' ?
You can write query as
Order.joins(:listing).where('listings.user_id = ?', 3)
I have the following associations. PropertyOwner is a join model which belongs to a property and polymorphically belongs to an owner, which in the below example is a ForeclosureDefense. Everything works well, until I had the has_one :main_property. The idea is the ForeclosureDefense model can have many properties, but the last property is the main property:
class ForeclosureDefense < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :property_owners, as: :owner
has_many :properties, through: :property_owners
has_one :main_property, through: :property_owners, source: :property, order: 'created_at desc'
end
class PropertyOwner < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :property
belongs_to :owner, polymorphic: :true
end
class Property < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :property_owners
has_many :owners, through: :property_owners
has_many :foreclosure_owners, through: :property_owners, source: :owner, source_type: "ForeclosureDefense"
has_many :folder_owners, through: :property_owners, source: :owner, source_type: "Folder"
end
Unfortunately, when I try to use that has_one :main_property association, I get the following error:
ActiveRecord::HasOneThroughCantAssociateThroughCollection: Cannot have a has_one :through association 'ForeclosureDefense#main_property' where the :through association 'ForeclosureDefense#property_owners' is a collection.
What am I doing wrong?
My solution was just to add it as a class-level macro:
def main_property
properties.order('created_at desc').first
end
I'm trying to add a new model to an existing model mesh. The existing one works perfectly but I can't get the new one to work properly and am wondering if the association is able to work the way I'm trying to make it work. Update: As I just got asked: belongs_to through was something I've read while gooling about the problem. If it doesn't exist, would has_one through be the correct way? I tried it as well but it also didn't work.
Here is the existing mesh:
class Course
has_many :users, through: :enrollments
has_many :enrollments
end
class User
has_many :courses, through: :enrollments
has_many :enrollments
end
class Enrollment
belongs_to :course
belongs_to :user
# has fields :user_id, :course_id
end
Now a user should be able to rate a course he's completed. (If he has, there is an enrollment with his id and a course id.) I thought it would be best to write it as follows:
class Course
has_many :users, through: :enrollments
has_many :enrollments
has_many :ratings, through: :enrollments
end
class User
has_many :courses, through: :enrollments
has_many :enrollments
has_many :ratings, through: :enrollments
end
class Enrollment
belongs_to :course
belongs_to :user
has_one :rating
# has fields :user_id, :course_id
end
class Rating
belongs_to :enrollment
belongs_to :course, through: :enrollment
belongs_to :user, through: :enrollment
end
When I try to create a Rating in the console, I get the following error:
User.first.ratings.create(text: "test", course_id: Course.first.id)
ArgumentError: Unknown key: through
Update
When I use has_one through insted, I get the following error:
ActiveRecord::HasManyThroughCantAssociateThroughHasOneOrManyReflection: Cannot modify association 'User#ratings' because the source reflection class 'Rating' is associated to 'Enrolment' via :has_one.
Is it possible to do it this way at all? Thanks!
class Course
has_many :users, through: :enrollments
has_many :enrollments
has_many :ratings, through: :enrollments
end
class User
has_many :courses, through: :enrollments
has_many :enrollments
has_many :ratings, through: :enrollments
end
class Enrollment
belongs_to :course
belongs_to :user
belongs_to :rating
# has fields :user_id, :course_id, rating_id
end
class Rating
has_one :enrollment
has_one :course, through: :enrollment
has_one :user, through: :enrollment
end
Note: Add foreignkey columns
And if you there is just one/two columns in ratings table merge them into enrollments like this.
class Course
has_many :users, through: :enrollments
has_many :enrollments
end
class User
has_many :courses, through: :enrollments
has_many :enrollments
end
class Enrollment
belongs_to :course
belongs_to :user
# has fields :user_id, :course_id, rating-columns...
end
Structure
Maybe you're complicating this too much
class Enrollment
belongs_to :course
belongs_to :user
end
This means you have a join model which stores unique records, referencing both course and user. Your ratings are on a per user and course basis?
Why don't you just include rating as an attribute of your enrolment model?:
#enrolments
id | user_id | course_id | rating | created_at | updated_at
If you give rating a numeric value (1 - 5), it will give you the ability to rate the different enrolments like this:
user = User.first
course = Course.first
user.enrolments.create(course: course, rating: 5)
--
Ratings
This is, of course, based on your current model structure.
If you want to include ratings for courses by users (not tied to enrolment), you may wish to use a join model called course_ratings or similar:
#app/models/user.rb
Class User < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :enrolments
has_many :courses, through: :enrolments
has_many :ratings, through: :courses, class_name: "CourseRating"
end
#app/models/course.rb
Class Course < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :enrolments
has_many :students, through: :enrolments, class_name: "User"
has_many :ratings, class_name: "CourseRating"
end
#app/models/course_rating.rb
Class CourseRating < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :course
belongs_to :user
end
This will allow you to call:
user = User.first
user.courses.first.ratings
