I've a mongoid embedded one to one model in a Rails app (User --> Watchlist) :
class User
include Mongoid::Document
field :name, :type => String
field :email, :type => String
embeds_one :watchlist
def self.create_with_omniauth(auth)
conn = FaradayStack.build 'https://api.github.com'
resp = conn.get '/users/octocat/watched'
create! do |user|
user.name = auth["user_info"]["name"]
user.email = auth["user_info"]["email"]
resp.body.each do |repo|
user.build_watchlist(html_url: "#{repo['html_url']}")
end
end
end
end
class Watchlist
include Mongoid::Document
field :html_url
embedded_in :user
end
Now resp.body, in User model is an Arry which contains several elements ( 2 in this case ):
ruby-1.9.2-p136 :061 > pp resp.body.length
2
=> 2
ruby-1.9.2-p136 :054 > resp.body.each do |repo|
ruby-1.9.2-p136 :055 > pp repo['html_url']
ruby-1.9.2-p136 :056?> end
"https://github.com/octocat/Hello-World"
"https://github.com/octocat/Spoon-Knife"
which I expect to save in the db at the end of self.create_with_omniauth(auth) method, anyway I just get one, nested "watchlist" child :
> db.users.find()
{
"_id" : ObjectId("4e1844ee1d41c843c7000003"),
"name" : "Luca G. Soave",
"email" : "luca.soave#gmail.com",
"watchlist" : { "html_url" : "https://github.com/octocat/Spoon-Knife",
"_id" : ObjectId("4e1844ee1d41c843c7000002") }
}
>
Pretty sure something goes wrong with this part of code:
resp.body.each do |repo|
user.build_watchlist(html_url: "#{repo['html_url']}", description: "#{repo['description']}")
end
... which probably cicles for the n. array elements and exit, wich also mean the last element is saved into the DB at the end of create! method,
... but I've not idea on how to decoupling that ...
Do you have a suggestion ?
I just get one, nested "watchlist" child.
You're only getting one watchlist because that's what you told Mongoid you have:
class User
embeds_one :watchlist # only one watchlist
end
If you want more than one watchlist, you need to change your model:
class User
embeds_many :watchlists
end
it helps if you use the term matching the collection you seek
embeds_many :watches
or
has_one :watchlist (but class Watchlist will in turn embeds_many :watch)

I want to generate forms for a resource that has a postgres jsonb column :data, and I want the schema for these forms to be stored in a table in the database. After a lot of research I am 90% there but my method fails in ActiveAdmin forms upon create (not update). Can anyone explain this?
Sorry for the long code snippets. This is a fairly elaborate setup but I think it would be of some interest since if this works one could build arbitrary new schemas dynamically without hard-coding.
I am following along this previous discussion with Rails 6 and ActiveAdmin 2.6.1 and ruby 2.6.5.
I want to store Json Schemas in a table SampleActionSchema that belong_to SampleAction (using the json-schema gem for validation)
class SampleActionSchema < ApplicationRecord
validates :category, uniqueness: { case_sensitive: false }, allow_nil: false, allow_blank: true
validate :schema_is_json_schema
private
def schema_is_json_schema
metaschema = JSON::Validator.validator_for_name("draft4").metaschema
unless JSON::Validator.validate(metaschema, schema)
errors.add :schema, 'not a compliant json schema'
end
end
end
class SampleAction < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :sample
validate :is_sample_action
validates :name, uniqueness: { case_sensitive: false }
after_initialize :add_field_accessors
before_create :add_field_accessors
before_update :add_field_accessors
def add_store_accessor field_name
singleton_class.class_eval {store_accessor :data, field_name.to_sym}
end
def add_field_accessors
num_fields = schema_properties.try(:keys).try(:count) || 0
schema_properties.keys.each {|field_name| add_store_accessor field_name} if num_fields > 0
end
def schema_properties
schema_arr=SampleActionSchema.where(category: category)
if schema_arr.size>0
sc=schema_arr[0]
if !sc.schema.empty?
props=sc.schema["properties"]
else
props=[]
end
else
[]
end
end
private
def is_sample_action
sa=SampleActionSchema.where(category: category)
errors.add :category, 'not a known sample action' unless (sa.size>0)
errors.add :base, 'incorrect json format' unless (sa.size>0) && JSON::Validator.validate(sa[0].schema, data)
end
end
This all works correctly; For example, for a simple schema called category: "cleave", where :data looks like data: {quality: "good"}, I can create a resource as follows in the rails console:
sa=SampleAction.new(sample_id: 6, name: "test0", data: {}, category: "cleave" )
=> #<SampleAction id: nil, name: "test0", category: "cleave", data: {}, created_at: nil, updated_at: nil, sample_id: 6>
sa.quality = "good" => true
sa.save => true
To make this system work in AA forms, I call the normal path (new or edit)_admix_sample_action_form with params: {category: "cleave"} and then I generate permit_params dynamically:
ActiveAdmin.register SampleAction, namespace: :admix do
permit_params do
prms=[:name, :category, :data, :sample_id, :created_at, :updated_at]
#the first case is creating a new record (gets parameter from admix/sample_actions/new?category="xxx"
#the second case is updating an existing record
#falls back to blank (no extra parameters)
categ = #_params[:category] || (#_params[:sample_action][:category] if #_params[:sample_action]) || nil
cat=SampleActionSchema.where(category: categ)
if cat.size>0 && !cat[0].schema.empty?
cat[0].schema["properties"].each do |key, value|
prms+=[key.to_sym]
end
end
prms
end
form do |f|
f.semantic_errors
new=f.object.new_record?
cat=params[:category] || f.object.category
f.object.category=cat if cat && new
f.object.add_field_accessors if new
sas=SampleActionSchema.where(category: cat)
is_schema=(sas.size>0) && !sas[0].schema.empty?
if session[:active_sample]
f.object.sample_id=session[:active_sample]
end
f.inputs "Sample Action" do
f.input :sample_id
f.input :name
f.input :category
if !is_schema
f.input :data, as: :jsonb
else
f.object.schema_properties.each do |key, value|
f.input key.to_sym, as: :string
end
end
end
f.actions
end
Everything works fine if I am editing an existing resource (as created in the console above). The form is displayed and all the dynamic fields are updated upon submit. But when creating a new resource where e.g. :data is of the form data: {quality: "good"} I get
ActiveModel::UnknownAttributeError in Admix::SampleActionsController#create
unknown attribute 'quality' for SampleAction.
I have tried to both add_accessors in the form and to override the new command to add the accessors after initialize (these should not be needed because the ActiveRecord callback appears to do the job at the right time).
def new
build_resource
resource.add_field_accessors
new!
end
Somehow when the resource is created in the AA controller, it seems impossible to get the accessors stored even though it works fine in the console. Does anyone have a strategy to initialize the resource correctly?
SOLUTION:
I traced what AA was doing to figure out the minimum number of commands needed. It was necessary to add code to build_new_resource to ensure that any new resource AA built had the correct :category field, and once doing so, make the call to dynamically add the store_accessor keys to the newly built instance.
Now users can create their own original schemas and records that use them, without any further programming! I hope others find this useful, I certainly will.
There are a couple ugly solutions here, one is that adding the parameters to the active admin new route call is not expected by AA, but it still works. I guess this parameter could be passed in some other way, but quick and dirty does the job. The other is that I had to have the form generate a session variable to store what kind of schema was used, in order for the post-form-submission build to know, since pressing the "Create Move" button clears the params from the url.
The operations are as follows: for a model called Move with field :data that should be dynamically serialized into fields according to the json schema tables, both
admin/moves/new?category="cleave" and admin/moves/#/edit find the "cleave" schema from the schema table, and correctly create and populate a form with the serialized parameters. And, direct writes to the db
m=Move.new(category: "cleave") ==> true
m.update(name: "t2", quality: "fine") ==> true
work as expected. The schema table is defined as:
require "json-schema"
class SampleActionSchema < ApplicationRecord
validates :category, uniqueness: { case_sensitive: false }, allow_nil: false, allow_blank: true
validate :schema_is_json_schema
def self.schema_keys(categ)
sas=SampleActionSchema.find_by(category: categ)
schema_keys= sas.nil? ? [] : sas[:schema]["properties"].keys.map{|k| k.to_sym}
end
private
def schema_is_json_schema
metaschema = JSON::Validator.validator_for_name("draft4").metaschema
unless JSON::Validator.validate(metaschema, schema)
errors.add :schema, 'not a compliant json schema'
end
end
end
The Move table that employs this schema is:
class Move < ApplicationRecord
after_initialize :add_field_accessors
def add_field_accessors
if category!=""
keys=SampleActionSchema.schema_keys(category)
keys.each {|k| singleton_class.class_eval{store_accessor :data, k}}
end
end
end
Finally, the working controller:
ActiveAdmin.register Move do
permit_params do
#choice 1 is for new records, choice 2 is for editing existing
categ = #_params[:category] || (#_params[:move][:category] if #_params[:move]) || ""
keys=SampleActionSchema.schema_keys(categ)
prms = [:name, :data] + keys
end
form do |f|
new=f.object.new_record?
f.object.category=params[:category] if new
if new
session[:current_category]=params[:category]
f.object.add_field_accessors
else
session[:current_category] = ""
end
keys=SampleActionSchema.schema_keys(f.object.category)
f.inputs do
f.input :name
f.input :category
keys.each {|k| f.input k}
end
f.actions
end
controller do
def build_new_resource
r=super
r.assign_attributes(category: session[:current_category])
r.add_field_accessors
r
end
end
end
For example in my Car model i have such fields:
color, price, year
and in form partial i generate form with all this fields. But how to code such logic:
user could enter color and year and i must find with this conditions, user could enter just year or all fields in same time...
And how to write where condition? I could write something like:
if params[:color].present?
car = Car.where(color: params[:color])
end
if params[:color].present? && params[:year].present?
car = Car.where(color: params[:color], year: params[:year])
end
and so over....
But this is very ugly solution, i'm new to rails, and want to know: how is better to solve my problem?
Check out the has_scope gem: https://github.com/plataformatec/has_scope
It really simplifies a lot of this:
class Graduation < ActiveRecord::Base
scope :featured, -> { where(:featured => true) }
scope :by_degree, -> degree { where(:degree => degree) }
scope :by_period, -> started_at, ended_at { where("started_at = ? AND ended_at = ?", started_at, ended_at) }
end
class GraduationsController < ApplicationController
has_scope :featured, :type => :boolean
has_scope :by_degree
has_scope :by_period, :using => [:started_at, :ended_at], :type => :hash
def index
#graduations = apply_scopes(Graduation).all
end
end
Thats it from the controller side
I would turn those into scopes on your Car model:
scope :by_color, lambda { |color| where(:color => color)}
scope :by_year, lambda { |year| where(:year => year)}
and in your controller you would just conditionally chain them like this:
def index
#cars = Car.all
#cars = #cars.by_color(params[:color]) if params[:color].present?
#cars = #cars.by_year(params[:year]) if params[:year].present?
end
user_params = [:color, :year, :price]
cars = self
user_params.each do |p|
cars = cars.where(p: params[p]) if params[p].present?
end
The typical (naive, but simple) way I would do this is with a generic search method in my model, eg.
class Car < ActiveRecord::Base
# Just pass params directly in
def self.search(params)
# By default we return all cars
cars = all
if params[:color].present?
cars = cars.where(color: params[:color])
end
if params[:price1].present? && params[:price2].present?
cars = cars.where('price between ? and ?', params[:price1], params[:price2])
end
# insert more fields here
cars
end
end
You can easily keep chaining wheres onto the query like this, and Rails will just AND them all together in the SQL. Then you can just call it with Car.search(params).
I think you could use params.permit
my_where_params = params.permit(:color, :price, :year).select {|k,v| v.present?}
car = Car.where(my_where_params)
EDIT: I think this only works in rails 4, not sure what version you're using.
EDIT #2 excerpt from site I linked to:
Using permit won't mind if the permitted attribute is missing
params = ActionController::Parameters.new(username: "john", password: "secret")
params.permit(:username, :password, :foobar)
# => { "username"=>"john", "password"=>"secret"}
as you can see, foobar isn't inside the new hash.
EDIT #3 added select block to where_params as it was pointed out in the comments that empty form fields would trigger an empty element to be created in the params hash.
I'm newbie in RoR, and I am trying to test a simple named_scope for my Model.
But I don't know if I have a problem in my model (I'm using mongoid), in my code test (I'm using rspec) or in my factory. I got this error
Mongoid::Errors::InvalidCollection:
Access to the collection for Movement is not allowed since it is an embedded document, please access a collection from the root
document.
My models
class Movement
include Mongoid::Document
field :description, :type => String
embedded_in :category
named_scope :top, lambda { |number| { :limit => (number.size > 0 ? number : 10) } }
end
class Category
include Mongoid::Document
field :name
embeds_many :movement
end
My factory, con factory_girl
Factory.define :movement do |m|
m.amount 24
m.date "30/10/2011"
m.description "Beer"
m.association :category, :factory => :category
end
Factory.define :category do |c|
c.name "Drink"
end
My test
describe "when i have a movement list" do
it "recent method should return last 2 movements" do
#movements = (1..3).collect { Factory(:movement) }
recent_movements = Movement.top(2)
recent_movements.should have(2).entries
end
end
And the error:
Mongoid::Errors::InvalidCollection:
Access to the collection for Movement is not allowed since it is an embedded >document,
please access a collection from the root document.
I tried a little change in my factory.
Factory.define :movement do |m|
m.amount 24
m.date "30/10/2011"
m.description "Beer"
m.category { [ Factory.build(:category) ] }
end
But then I got other different error:
Failure/Error: #movements = (1..3).collect { Factory(:movement) }
NoMethodError:

Could someone help me?
Thanks
I just had a the same error in my app. I ended up having an error in my class and that solved my problem.
I have a form that has a category model and and embeded docuement called "FieldModule" and this has embedded document called "SubFieldModule"
For example
class Category
include MongoMapper::Document
key :name, String
many :field_modules
end
class FieldModule
include MongoMapper::EmbeddedDocument
key :name, String
many :sub_field_modules
end
class SubFieldModule
include MongoMapper::EmbeddedDocument
key :name, String
end
In my controller i edit action i have :
#category = Category.find(params[:id])
3.times do
#category.field_modules << FieldModule.new()
end
To set up 3 FieldModules for the category.
I want to be able to do the same for each FieldModules SubFieldModules like so
#category.field_modules.each do |mf|
mf << SubFieldModule.new()
end
but it doesnt work.
i get error:
NoMethodError in Sub categoriesController#edit
undefined method `<<' for #<FieldModule name: nil, _id: $oid4c2b9f594248ce19f000011b>
Anyone help me out on this ? as i then need to take it one level deeper doing the same.
Try this:
#cat = Category.new(:name => "Blah")
3.times do
#cat.field_modules << FieldModule.new()
end
#cat.field_modules.each do |mf|
mf.sub_field_modules << SubFieldModule.new()
end
I have used globalize2 to add i18n to an old site. There is already a lot of content in spanish, however it isn't stored in globalize2 tables. Is there a way to convert this content to globalize2 with a migration in rails?
The problem is I can't access the stored content:
>> Panel.first
=> #<Panel id: 1, name: "RT", description: "asd", proje....
>> Panel.first.name
=> nil
>> I18n.locale = nil
=> nil
>> Panel.first.name
=> nil
Any ideas?
I'm sure you solved this one way or another but here goes. You should be able to use the read_attribute method to dig out what you're looking for.
I just used the following to migrate content from the main table into a globalize2 translations table.
Add the appropriate translates line to your model.
Place the following in config/initializers/globalize2_data_migration.rb:
require 'globalize'
module Globalize
module ActiveRecord
module Migration
def move_data_to_translation_table
klass = self.class_name.constantize
return unless klass.count > 0
translated_attribute_columns = klass.first.translated_attributes.keys
klass.all.each do |p|
attribs = {}
translated_attribute_columns.each { |c| attribs[c] = p.read_attribute(c) }
p.update_attributes(attribs)
end
end
def move_data_to_model_table
# Find all of the translated attributes for all records in the model.
klass = self.class_name.constantize
return unless klass.count > 0
all_translated_attributes = klass.all.collect{|m| m.attributes}
all_translated_attributes.each do |translated_record|
# Create a hash containing the translated column names and their values.
translated_attribute_names.inject(fields_to_update={}) do |f, name|
f.update({name.to_sym => translated_record[name.to_s]})
end
# Now, update the actual model's record with the hash.
klass.update_all(fields_to_update, {:id => translated_record['id']})
end
end
end
end
end
Created a migration with the following:
class TranslateAndMigratePages < ActiveRecord::Migration
def self.up
Page.create_translation_table!({
:title => :string,
:custom_title => :string,
:meta_keywords => :string,
:meta_description => :text,
:browser_title => :string
})
say_with_time('Migrating Page data to translation tables') do
Page.move_data_to_translation_table
end
end
def self.down
say_with_time('Moving Page translated values into main table') do
Page.move_data_to_model_table
end
Page.drop_translation_table!
end
end
Borrows heavily from Globalize 3 and refinerycms.
