session question..

Hi, I''m reading Agile Web Development with Rails 2nd Edition. Here, to
save items a customer has selected, it has used session and a "Cart"
class which is a model but doesn''t have ''carts'' table
in the database.
In the class it has defined method to add selected items as:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
def add_product(product)
 @items << product
end
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
where @items is an array and product is created with:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
def add_to_cart
 @cart=find_cart
 product=Product.find(params[:id])
 @cart.add_product(product)
end
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
and there is a use of find_cart method which is used to find cart or
create new if there isn''t any as:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
def find_cart
 session[:cart] ||= Cart.new
end
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now, I''m trying to follow the author but my situation is littly twisted
as in my case customer will enter lots other details than just a
campsite name. For eg: it will be campsite name, arrival_date, days to
stay, group size and also claims for family rate if eligible. So, I''ve
thought of saving all these details in the "carts" table in the
database. So I''ve also made Cart class but I have
''carts'' table as well.
So, I''ve used <%form_for :cart ....%> to get all the details from
the
form in one object and done @cart=find_cart(params[:cart]) and find_cart
method as: (I''m not sure if its right way. I even don''t know
what
exactly is happening between sessions table which was created via
db:session:create and my ''carts'' table.)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
def find_cart(cartobj)
 session[:cart] ||= Cart.new(cartobj)
end
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

so far so good, details got saved but when it came to emptying the cart
list, I''m confused what to do. Author has done it as:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
def empty_cart
 session[:cart]=nil
 redirect_to :action => :index
end
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If i do the same just the data in the sessions table is being deleted
and the details in the carts table are still there. So, how can I delete
details related with the particular session from this ''carts''
table as
it will contain details from other users as well with different session
id. Thanks for your time to go thru and please advice any
suggestions.... thnx

If carts are saved in the database I would just save its id in the
session. If this is all you''re using here you''re not actually
saving
anything in the carts table at all.

Ya, that''s what. As the details inserted into that "carts"
table aren''t
necessarily the ones the customer would have done and its needed just 
till the time of session, I have made "carts" table thinking it will 
just hold the temporary values and whenever customer hits "Emtpy cart"
button, I wanted all the details related with that session deleted from 
this "carts" table as well. And after finalising the details and the 
payment is done then only the details from here be stored in 
corresponding tables permanently. If my logic is right can you please 
suggest me any better..
thanks..

I''m not sure what the stumbling point is here. carts are objects in  
the db, you have the ids of those objects in the session, what more do  
you need to destroy them ?

Sorry for the silly questions, so will I save carts id in the session. 
Can this work?

@cart=Cart.new(params[:cart])

session[:cart]=@cart.id

and later how can I retrieve id from the session?

Actually, params[:cart] is derived from <%form_for :cart ...%> Inside
this, there are textfields corresponding to "carts" table and hence I
could save the values in the form and I''m doing this way:

CONTROLLER:
def add_to_cart
    @cart_items=[]
    @cart=find_cart(params[:cart])
    if @cart.save
      @cart_items << @cart
    else
      flash[:notice]="Details couldn''t be saved"
    end
end

private

  def find_cart(cartobj)
    session[:cart] ||= Cart.new(cartobj)
  end

I''m using @cart_items array just because I couldn''t iterate
through the
@cart to list all the entered details in the add_to_cart.rhtml as:

VIEW:
<h1>Your details:</h1>
<ul>
  <%for item in @cart_items%>
    <li><%=item.campsite%></li>
    <li><%=item.arrival_date%></li>
    <li><%=item.nights%></li>
    <li><%=item.parents%></li>
    <li><%=item.children%></li>
    <li><%=item.family_claim%></li>
  <%end%>
</ul>
<%=button_to "Empty cart", :action => :empty_cart%>

So, now when I click the "add to cart" button in the view everything
gets added to the "carts" table and I''m taken to
add_to_cart.rhtml with
the list of details. Now in this case how can i empty it when empty_cart
action is triggered for this specific session?

thanks fred.

This doesn''t seem to make any sense. For example the @cart_items array
will only ever contain 1 item, you are storing the whole cart object  
in the session (what''s the point of storing it in the database and the
session ?)

Is you cart object actually an item in a cart (rather than the  
container, as the name usually implies) ?

session[:cart]=Cart.new(cartobj), what is this doing actually I''m not 
sure? As you said just to store carts id in the session, how can I do 
that? and while emptying the cart how can I get all the carts'' id
stored
in the session and delete the records with that id from the carts table? 
With my current way, how can I validate individual details coz currently 
its all coming as params[:cart] coz first I have to validate and if 
alright save in the database.

can you please show me how? I''m not yet familiar with rails code.

My cart object (params[:cart]) is all the values passed from the browser 
by the customer like date, time etc and this values I''m saving to the 
database table. Hope this is what you trying to know.

Thanks fred..

Your code actually says
session[:cart] ||= Cart.new(cartobj)

what this does is:
- if session[:cart] is set, do nothing
- if not create a new instance of cart and store it in the session.

session[:cart_id] = cart.id

When you need to access the cart later you would do
cart = Cart.find session[:cart_id]
and then do stuff with the instance of cart (eg destroy it)

That''s not what I was asking. Some of what you were saying was
implying that a customer would have multiple carts at the same time,
whereas normally a person only ever has one cart (possibly containing
more than one thing). In that case you may not want to be persisting
the cart but the items in the cart (which might be what you''re trying
to do already, but calling them carts just makes everything rather
confused).

Re: session question..

Thanks Fred for your detailed answer. Now, I realize where I stand. 
About the "carts" table I''m assuming that at a particular
time more than
one customer will be shopping so this "carts" table will hold items of
each customer with a reference to a session id given to each customer. 
Each details for each customer will be retrieved and deleted with the 
help of this session info.
Anyway, now I think I can reach somewhere.. thnx very much.

Re: session question..

Sorry, I''m back again as I couldn''t go much far than I
thought.. I did
the following:

def add_to_cart
 cart=Cart.create(......)
 session[:cart_id] = cart.id
 @items=Cart.find(session[:cart_id])
end

Now, session[:cart_id]=cart.id is only storing the id of the newly added 
cart item so, Cart.find(session[:cart_id]) is only giving me one row. 
Hence, despite the fact that a customer has added multiple items in the 
cart, I could only show the latest item added in the cart to the 
customer. So, thought of using this:

@cart_ids = []
session[:cart_id] = cart.id
@cart_ids << session[:cart_id]

but couldn''t think of the way to iterate through each id in the 
@cart_ids and show the result in the add_to_cart.rhtml. Any better 
suggestion or solution for this??? thanks..

How could that ever work? That instance variable doesn''t survive
across requests. You would need something like

cart=Cart.create(......)
session[:cart_ids] ||= []
session[:cart_ids] << cart.id

You can then later use Cart.find(session[:cart_ids]) to get all those
cart objects back.

Re: session question..

Ok, Now as I''ve made session[:cart_ids] and array with:

session[:cart_ids] ||= []

how can I clear all the stored ids in the session coz 
''session[:cart_ids] = nil'' isn''t working. Also as I
have ids in the
array referenced by session[:cart_ids] and that the carts table only 
stored the camp location, to get the id of each camp location stored in 
the cart, I''m doing:

@cart=Cart.find(session[:cart_ids])

for item in @cart
 @camp_id=Campsite.find(:all, :conditions => [''camp_location = 
?'',item.campsite])
 Booking.create(......,:camp_id => @camp_id.id)
end

But, it doesn''t seem to work. Any better way? plz suggest me.. thanks.

thanks.
session[:cart_ids].clear gives error as well instead. In case of the for 
loop the when done as:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
@camp_id = Campsite.find(:all, :select => ''id'', :conditions
=>
[''camp_location = ?'',item.campsite])
Booking.create(....,:camp_id => @camp_id)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No matter which campsite I select, 1 is saved as an id in camp_id column 
in bookings table.. plz any suggestion?? thanks
