ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch

Hi to all,
I have this error and I don''t understand why. I have three model,
Image and Playlist and PlaylistItem. Everything works fine. The app
should work also a XML REST service. When I made this call I obtain
this XML because the playlist don''t contains images:

GET http://0.0.0.0:3000/playlists/7.xml
<playlist>
  <id>7</id>
  <name>metallo</name>
  <images></images>
</playlist>

I would put some images in playlist (the images are already presents
on server) I should made this call:

PUT http://0.0.0.0:3000/playlists/7.xml

<playlist>
    <id>7</id>
    <name>metal</name>
    <images>
        <image>
            <id>1</id>
            <name>gino</name>
        </image>
        <image>
            <id>2</id>
            <name>pino</name>
        </image>
    </images>
</playlist>

but I obtain this error:

ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch in PlaylistsController#update
Image(#87559180) expected, got Array(#78093260)

parameters:
{"playlist"=>{"id"=>"7",
 "name"=>"metal",
 "images"=>{"image"=>[{"id"=>"1",
 "name"=>"gino"},
 {"id"=>"2",
 "name"=>"pino"}]}},
 "id"=>"7",
 "format"=>"xml"}

This are the three models:

class Image < ActiveRecord::Base
  attr_accessor :picture
  validates :name, :uniqueness => true, :presence => true
  validates :picture, :presence => true

  has_many :playlist_items
  has_many :playlists, :through => :playlist_items
end

class Playlist < ActiveRecord::Base
  validates :name, :presence => true, :uniqueness => true

  has_many :playlist_items
  has_many :images, :through => :playlist_items
  accepts_nested_attributes_for :images, :allow_destroy => true
end

class PlaylistItem < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :image
  belongs_to :playlist
end

The project can be found here: https://github.com/gpad/rms

can anybody help?

thanks

Looks like you need a slightly different format for the XML:

I try this type of XML

<playlist>
  <id>7</id>
  <name>metal</name>
  <images_attributes type="array">
    <image>
      <id>3</id>
    </image>
  </images_attributes>
</playlist>

but I receive this error:

Couldn''t find Image with ID=3 for Playlist with ID=7

app/controllers/playlists_controller.rb:43:in `block in update''
app/controllers/playlists_controller.rb:42:in `update''

"playlist"=>{"id"=>"7",
 "name"=>"metal",
 "images_attributes"=>[{"id"=>"3"}]},
 "id"=>"7",
 "format"=>"xml"}

The image ID 3 already exist!

It''s very strange ... I don''t think I''m in a case
corner, It''s common
in REST service have  this type of information ...

Re: Re: ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch

Hi to all,
I think I have understand the problem. When you made a PUT of this type:

<playlist>
 <id>7</id>
 <name>metal</name>
 <images_attributes type="array">
   <image>
     <id>3</id>
   </image>
 </images_attributes>
</playlist>

Rails suppose that:

Or your are creating the playlist and the image or you are updating
the relationship inside the playlist, see the method
assign_nested_attributes_for_collection_association in
activerecord-3.0.10/lib/active_record/associations/has_many_through_association.rb

In may case I have already all the image in the play list and I would
create a playlist selecting some images ...

How can I obtain this behavior?

thanks
Gianluca
