I am currently working on an app in which I a list of tasks displayed
under a particular project. These tasks get displayed when the
application first loads. I am setting this project as the current
project. I have a method in my application controller which sets the
last project created by the user as the current project.
//Code
def current_project
@current_project = Project.find(:last, :conditions => {:owner =>
current_user.id})
end
Now the user has other projects as well and he can open those projects
as well. I can load those projects and get the tasks out of them using
Project.find(params[:id]).tasks.
But the problem is that I am trying to set this project to the
@current_project.
My tasks controller looks like this:
def index
debugger
@tasks = @current_project.tasks
@tasks = @tasks.sort_by{|i| i[:position]}
respond_to do |format|
format.html # index.html.erb
format.xml { render :xml => @tasks }
end
def load_tasks
debugger
@current_project = Project.find(params[:id])
redirect_to tasks_url
end
The load_tasks action is being called on clicking of the project link
so as to set the new value to @current_project and then redirect to
the index action. But this doesn''t seem to work and the value of the
@current_project stays the same in index action (which the value which
was there when the application was loaded).
Is there a way that I can set the value to the @current_project? I
also tried to implement a getter and setter method but I don''t think I
implemented it correctly or even if would help my cause here.
If someone can point me in the right direction that will be great.
Also I am a newbie to rails, i would like to apologize in advance in
case this is a real fundamental mistake.
