I'm having an issue, where I'm trying to add an Address to a Person, using a form on my #new
-action, as usual.
What I'm doing currently, is
class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
has_one :address, :as => :owner
accepts_nested_attributes_for :address
end
class Address < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :owner, :polymorphic => true
end
In my form, I'm using form_for @person do |f|
- then the form, and then f.fields_for :address do |af|
and the fields, using af.text_field
.
My controller action:
def create
person = Person.new(person_params)
if person.valid?
person.save
redirect_to edit_content_person_path(@current_work_context, person)
else
@person = person
render 'new'
end
end
def person_params
params.require(:person).permit( :name, :address => [:line_one, :line_two, :zipcode, :city])
end
When I submit my form, with these parameters:
{"utf8"=>"✓",
"authenticity_token"=>"blablabla==",
"person"=>{"name"=>"mr man",
"address"=>{"line_one"=>"test address 15",
"line_two"=>"",
"zipcode"=>"2600",
"city"=>"Glostrup"}},
"locale"=>"da",
"context_id"=>"9"}
Yet, I get the exception: ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch
Address(#70198415678880) expected, got ActionController::Parameters(#70198414055220)
I cannot seem to figure out why.
EDIT - My view, simplified:
<%= form_for @person do |f| %>
<%= f.text_field :name %>
<%= f.fields_for :address do |af| %>
<%= af.label :address %>
<%= af.text_field :line_one, :placeholder => "Address 1" %>
<%= af.text_field :line_two, :placeholder => "Address 2" %>
<%= af.label :zipcode %>
<%= af.text_field :zipcode, :class => "form-control" %>
<%= af.label :city %>
<%= af.text_field :city, :class => "form-control" %>
<% end %>
<% end %>
let trys one thing. Please and this lines and restart your server
# config/initializers/inflections.rb
ActiveSupport::Inflector.inflections do |inflect|'
inflect.irregular 'address', 'addresses'
end
# after we discussing more about the problem in chat we found the solution.
# The object 'Person' not initialize correctly to f.fields_for :address
# view
<% f.object.build_address if f.object.address.blank? %> #add this line
<%= f.fields_for :address do |af| %>
