ROR strip issues - ruby-on-rails

i am using strip for check email but it gave me this issues please help me out .
NoMethodError in UsersController#check_email
undefined method `strip' for nil:NilClass
def check_email
if params[:email].blank?
#email = params[:email].strip
user = User.find_by_email(#email)
if user.nil?
text = "false"
else
text = "true"
end
render :text => text
else
render :text =>text
end
end

Based on the feedback by Sergio and Brad:
def check_email
text = params[:email].present? && User.where(email: params[:email].strip).exists?
render :text => text
end

Update it as:--
def check_email
if params[:email].present?
#email = params[:email].strip
user = User.find_by_email(#email)
unless user.present?
text = "false"
else
text = "true"
end
render :text => text
else
render :text =>text
end
end

if params[:email].blank? should be if params[:email].present?.
Problem is when params[:email] is nil you are calling strip method on it i.e. nil.strip
So change it to followin
def check_email
if params[:email].present?
#email = params[:email].strip
user = User.find_by_email(#email)
text = user.nil? ? "false" : "true"
else
text = "please enter email address"
end
render :text =>text
end

You have small error, you need use:
unless params[:email].blank?
Or,
if params[:email].present?
I recommend to read about blank? vs nil? vs empty? vs present?

How to get rid off underscore "_" from the rails generated url?

I just implemented friendly_id on the category model of rails app. Earlier it used to generate url like this:
localhost/search?category_id=208. Now I got it to generate url as below
localhost:3000/search?category_id=metal-processing-and-machine-tool
The url generating line is:
<a href="<%= search_equipments_path(:category_id => category.slug ) %>">
The search_equipments method is as follows:
def search_equipments
begin
if (params.keys & ['category_id', 'sub_category', 'manufacturer', 'country', 'state', 'keyword']).present?
if params[:category_id].present?
#category = Category.active.find params[:category_id]
else
#category = Category.active.find params[:sub_category] if params[:sub_category].present?
end
#root_categories = Category.active.roots
#sub_categories = #category.children.active if params[:category_id].present?
#sub_categories ||= {}
#countries = Country.active.all
#manufacturers = Manufacturer.active.all
#states = State.active.where("country_id = ?", params[:country]) if params[:country].present?
#states ||= {}
unless params[:category_id].present? && params[:sub_category].present?
params[:category_id] = #category.id if params[:category_id].present?
params[:sub_category] = #category.id if params[:sub_category].present?
end
#equipments = Equipment.active.filter(params.slice(:manufacturer, :country, :state, :category_id, :sub_category, :keyword)).order("#{sort_column} #{sort_direction}, created_at desc")
else
redirect_to root_path
end
rescue Exception => e
redirect_to root_path, :notice => "Something went wrong!"
end
end
Because of SEO reasons the people above me are telling to get rid off the _ which is in category_id from the url. I tried by changing the format in url generating line. Didn't help. Can please anyone tell me if it is doable and how can I achieve that?
Please let me know in the comments if any extra information needed.

How to use reload without validations?

I'm setting up basic tests for a rails app, I'm wondering how the reload function works. Rails generated the basic crud tests, I adapted them to my need, but it seems like the reload function doesn't work.
I create a user with valid params, then ask to change its name, but it seems like nothing's updated (output is still name: 'Toto' instead of name: 'Tata').
Here's the code sample, I just followed the basic rspec tutorial, still, nothing gets updated. Any idea why ?
context "with valid params" do
let(:new_attributes) { {name: 'Tata'} }
it "updates the requested creator" do
creator = Creator.create! valid_attributes
puts creator.id
puts new_attributes
put :update, :id => creator.id, :creator => new_attributes
creator.reload
puts creator.name.to_yaml
expect(creator.attributes).to include( { "name" => 'Tata' } )
...
Here's the matching controller method
def update
#creator = Creator.find(params[:id])
authorize #creator
#creator.completed = true
params[:hidden] == 'false' ? #creator.hidden = false : #creator.hidden = true
#creator.update(creator_params)
if params[:user].present?
if params[:user][:picture].present?
#creator.picture = params[:user][:picture]
end
end
if #creator.save
if iban.nil? || (iban && !iban.valid?)
flash[:alert] = "Veuillez entrer un IBAN valide"
redirect_to edit_creator_path(#creator)
elsif params[:brief_id].present?
flash[:notice] = "Informations mises à jour"
redirect_to brief_path(params[:brief_id])
else
flash[:notice] = "Informations mises à jour"
redirect_to creator_path(#creator)
end
else
puts #creator.errors.full_messages
render :edit
end
end

How to get object value in ActiveRecord Model?

I want to create custom validation inside The Model.
But nothing in return when i tried to get that value from the variable
This is my model
validate :permanent_event_check
private
def permanent_event_check
param_activity = #activity
# puts "param_activityparam_activityparam_activity"
# puts #activity
# puts param_activity
# puts "param_activityparam_activityparam_activityparam_activity"
if param_activity.permanent == "false"
if param_activity.start_at == "" || param_activity.end_at == ""
#activity.errors[:base] << "You can't leave start and end date blank with Permanent Event"
return false
end
end
end
This is my controller
def create
#activity = admin_current_user.activities.build(activity_param)
if #activity.save
flash[:success] = "Activity Created!"
redirect_to admin_dashboard_url
else
render 'new'
end
end
private
def activity_param
params.require(:activity).permit(:name,:details,:start_at,:end_at,
:activity_image01_url,:activity_image02_url,:activity_image03_url,
:youtube_url,:capacity,:booking_status,:rules,:apply_details,
:payment_price,:payment_need,:avaliable,:rating,:temple_id)
end
But it return nil when i tried to get the value from #activity inside my model.
How can i fix this?
Thanks!
You cannot assign the object like that in the model, instead you van take self.
validates :permanent_event_check
private
def permanent_event_check
if self.permanent == "false"
if self.start_at == "" || self.end_at == ""
self.errors[:base] << "You can't leave start and end date blank with Permanent Event"
return false
end
end
end
I assume that permanent is boolean, start_at and end_at - datetime.
validate :permanent_event_check, unless :permanent
private
def permanent_event_check
# if start_at and end_at are not filled they will be nil which is interpreted as false
unless start_at && end_at
self.errors[:base] << "You can't leave start and end date blank with Permanent Event"
end
end

can not persist the new object between requests - RoR

In my application, I have a twitter and facebook login, however I need to prompt a password and email after they first register with twitter or facebook. I am using omniauth gems and my controller/user model looks like this:
//socials_controller.rb
def create
#render text: request.env['omniauth.auth'].to_yaml and return
#user = User.from_omniauth(request.env['omniauth.auth'])
if(#user.email == nil)
redirect_to patient_login_entry_url(#user)
elsif #user.confirmed
log_in #user
redirect_to #user
else
flash[:danger] = "Bir hata olustu."
redirect_to root_url
end
end
def login_entry
#patient = Patient.find(params[:id])
end
def update_social
#patient = Patient.find(params[:id])
if #patient.update_attributes(user_params)
SendVerificationEmailJob.perform_later #patient
flash[:success] = "Aktivasyon için #{#patient.email} adresinizi kontrol ediniz."
redirect_to root_url
else
flash[:danger] = "Bilgilerinizi kontrol edip tekrar deneyiniz."
redirect_to patient_login_entry_url(#patient)
end
end
and my from_omniauth method is:
//user.rb
has_secure_password
class << self
def from_omniauth(auth_hash)
if exists?(uid: auth_hash['uid'])
user = find_by(uid: auth_hash['uid'])
else
user = find_or_create_by(uid: auth_hash['uid'], provider: auth_hash['provider'], type: 'Patient')
user.location = get_social_location_for user.provider, auth_hash['info']['location']
if auth_hash.provider == 'facebook'
user.avatar = User.process_uri(auth_hash['info']['image'])
user.name = auth_hash['extra']['raw_info']['first_name']
user.surname = auth_hash['extra']['raw_info']['last_name']
user.email = auth_hash['extra']['raw_info']['email']
user.gender = auth_hash['extra']['raw_info']['gender']
elsif auth_hash.provider == 'twitter'
user.avatar = auth_hash['info']['image']
user.name = auth_hash['info']['name']
end
user.url = get_social_url_for user.provider, auth_hash['info']['urls']
user.save!
end
user
end
At the login_entry page, I simply prompt the email and password, and POSTing them to the update_social method.
However, as expected, my app throws the error "Password can't be blank", because has_secure_password validates its presence by default. So, I need to persist it between the requests since I can not save it without a password. How can I achieve this?
I tried to store the created object in session by using to_json method, and turning it into a hash between requests, however this time the profile picture I got from twitter/facebook did not persist (I'm using AWS S3 + Paperclip, the URL persists but there is no such image when I check it from the S3 console) so I think that solution was not good.

Rails regex validations throw no method error in Heroku

I have used the following regex to validate the nic number in my rails app :
VALID_NIC_REGEX = /\A\d{9}[V|v|x|X]\z/i
validates :nic, presence: true, allow_blank: true, format: { with: VALID_NIC_REGEX }, uniqueness: { case_sensitive: false }
When I test it in my local machine, everything works fine. But after uploading to heroku, it give an error while trying to save the member with a value in the nic field. Both valid and invalid values give the error. If there's no value in the nic field, it saves the member. In the heroku log, I found this error :
NoMethodError (undefined method `limit' for nil:NilClass):
app/controllers/members_controller.rb:117:in `update'
So, I commented out the two validation lines and uploaded the site to Heroku. Now it works. Can some one please explain this? Thank you.
Controller update action :
def update
#source = params[:source]
#telfie = params[:telfie].to_i
#member = Member.find(params[:id])
#tel = Array.new
(1..#telfie.to_i).each do |i|
#tel << params[:tele][:"#{'tele'}#{i}"]
end
#params[:tele] = #tel
if params[:commit] == 'More Numbers'
#telfie = #telfie + 1
render 'edit'
else
if params[:commit] == 'Less Numbers'
if #telfie > 1
#telfie = #telfie - 1
render 'edit'
else
flash.now[:error] = "Can't remove all contact fields!"
render 'edit'
end
else
if #member.update_attributes(member_params)
#member.tele = #tel
#member.save
flash[:success] = "Member #{#member.name} Successfully Updated!"
if params[:commit] == 'Save Member and Add Associates'
redirect_to new_associate_url(memberid: #member.id, source: "memberv" )
else
if #source == "database"
redirect_to database_path
else
redirect_to member_url(#member)
end
end
else
render 'edit'
end
end
end
end
