uninitialized constant ApplicationController::PermittedParams strong parameters - ruby-on-rails

Don't know where i'm getting wrong, i have searched a lot googling and also in SO but i don't understand what i am doing wrong.
My Application Controller
class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
helper_method :clipboard, :current_user, :signed_in?, :permitted_params
def permitted_params
#permitted_params ||= PermittedParams.new(params, current_user)
end
My Model Permitted_Param.rb
class PermittedParams < Struct.new(:params, :current_user)
%w{folder group share_link user user_file}.each do |model_name|
define_method model_name do
params.require(model_name.to_sym).permit(*send("#{model_name}_attributes"))
end
end
def folder_attributes
[:name]
end
def group_attributes
[:name]
end
def share_link_attributes
[:emails, :link_expires_at, :message]
end
def user_attributes
if current_user && current_user.member_of_admins?
[:name, :email, :password, :password_confirmation, { :group_ids => [] }]
else
[:name, :email, :password, :password_confirmation]
end
end
def user_file_attributes
[:attachment, :attachment_file_name]
end

I got the same problem and i resolved that after renaming my strong parameter function name to controllername_params
I don't know where is the mention but i'd love to know that .

Rails does not create associated model

I created a form where a user can create a profile. In the form the user can select multiple companies. A profile has many companies through a join-table named profile_companies. My code does create a new profile, but it does not create the association. Meaning that when I hit in the console: Profile.last.companies it returns an empty array. When I check the params before a profile is created, it does show me a full array for company_ids. So it looks like it cannot pass these values and create the association. Does anyone have an idea where the error is?
Here is my Profile model:
class Profile < ApplicationRecord
belongs_to :user
has_many :profile_companies
has_many :companies, through: :profile_companies
STATUSES = ["currently looking for a job", "employed but open for a new challenge"]
validates :status, inclusion: {in: STATUSES}
end
here is my company model:
class Company < ApplicationRecord
has_many :vacancies
has_many :profile_companies
has_many :profiles, through: :profile_companies
end
here is my profiles controller:
class ProfilesController < ApplicationController
def new
#profile = Profile.new
end
def create
#profile = Profile.new(params_profile)
if #profile.save
redirect_to profile_path
else
render :new
end
end
private
def params_profile
params.require(:profile).permit(:status, :name, :content, :company_ids)
end
end
And here is my pry to show the params handed to the controller:
[1] pry(#<ProfilesController>)> params[:profile] => <ActionController::Parameters {"name"=>"test 4", "status"=>"employed but open for a new challenge", "company_ids"=>["", "31", "34"], "content"=>"test 4"} permitted: false>
And here are my Logs:

...you are using permit incorrectly and company_ids, therefore, is not being permitted.
It should look something more like:
def params_profile
params.require(:profile).permit(:status, :name, :content, company_ids: [])
end
...since company_ids is an array. Permitted arrays should go at the end of the permit list, see the docs for more information.
Second, your Profile model doesn't have a company_ids attribute. So, you may get an error when you do:
#profile = Profile.new(params_profile)
(TBH, I forget how smart (or not) rails is in this type of circumstance.) Which is a whole other thing you'll have to deal with.
Third, your Profile model includes belongs_to :user, but you never assign a user which is why your transaction is getting the ROLLBACK. In general, to see why you're getting a ROLLBACK, you can do something like:
if #profile.save!
...and the bang (!) will cause an error and provide an explanation.
To set the user_id, I would suggest you do something like:
#profile = current_user.build_profile(params_profile)
This assumes that User has_one :profile. See the docs for more information.

Rails api - why incorrect ID send null instead of 404?

When I enter an incorrect track_id in url for example : tracks/123456
=> it returns 404 not found as expected !
If I try with incorrect challenge_id which is one of my other model : tracks/1/challenges/12345
=> it return null instead of 404 not found.
The code of both seems to be the same so I can't found the issue.
If you could help me to found why I get null instead of 404, seeing the code below :
routes.rb
resources :tracks do
resources :challenges do
resources :ressources
end
end
challenges_controller.rb
def show
render json: #challenge, include: [:ressources, :challenges_startups]
end
private
def set_challenge
#track = Track.find(params[:track_id])
#challenge = #track.challenges.where(id: params[:id]).first
end
tracks_controller.rb
def show
render json: #track, include: [:challenges]
end
private
def set_track
#track = Track.find(params[:id])
end

You have defined #challenge like below
#challenge = #track.challenges.where(id: params[:id]).first
where returns nil if there is no record matching the condition. That is why you get null instead of 404 not found.
Whereas find in contrast returns 404 not found if the record doesn't exist.
If you want to get 404 not found, then modify #challenge like below
#challenge = #track.challenges.find(params[:id])

redirect_to '/'

redirect_to '/manage'

If it's updating the wrong user, it means that params[:id] is the id of the user being updated. Are you passing the id of the user you want to update in the params? Try calling puts params.inspect at the top of the controller action to see what data is being passed. You need to look up #other_user with their id and you need to make sure that #other_user's id is being passed with the other form data.
after 10 days ,, Yes i did it - the solution is in the name of submit , I named the two submits with diffrent names <%= f.submit "update", name:"other" %>
then i used the update action like this
def update
if params[:current]
#user = current_user
if #user.update_attributes(user_params)
redirect_to '/profile'
else
redirect_to '/edit'
end
elsif params[:other]
#other_user=User.find(params[:id])
if #other_user.update_attributes(otherusers_params)
redirect_to '/'
else
redirect_to '/manage'
end

The user ID of the form in "editusers" is set to your admin (or logged in user). It's hard to say without seeing the code but I think you've set up the editusers form incorrectly. Perhaps using a hidden field to hold the ID of the user you want to update.
Try to avoid that and set up the #user object in the 'editusers' action #user = User.find(10)
Then in your view use a form_for #user do |f| without any hidden fields for the ID.

/thisismyname, and it works fine. But when I look at the log there is
something I don't like...
When I hit /gregory this is what is happenning:
1. Going to public_profile#public # Good
2. hitting /assets and trying to find a user with asset token # Not good
I thought my constraints would avoid this but it doesn't seem like it...

You are searching request.session for the token, but this will always fail as that's the session store rather than the request parameters. You probably want the equivalent of params[:token] in the constraint class. The request object documentation indicates that request.path_parameters[:token] might contain the value you are looking for.
