Objective: Parse data to display all the id's in the erb file
Problem: NoMethodError in DemoController#index
due to this piece of code
@x = obj[i]["id"]
When I replace the "i" in the above piece of code with a number, one id number displays which leads me to believe that the while loop is correct. It just doesn't understand what "i" is.
What am I doing wrong?
Here is my code for my Controller and View
demo_controller.rb
require 'rubygems'
require 'json'
require 'net/http'
require 'httparty'
class DemoController < ApplicationController
respond_to :json
$angelURI = "https://api.angel.co/1/jobs"
def index
response = HTTParty.get('https://api.angel.co/1/jobs/')
obj = JSON.parse(response.body)["jobs"]
arraylength = obj.length
i = 0
while i <= arraylength do
@x = obj[i]["id"]
i += 1
end
end
end
index.html.erb
<%=@x%>
By combining best of answers we get:
@x = []
obj.each do |job|
@x << job["id"]
end
