similar to: Do transactions fail with polymorphic has_one relationships?

I have two objects, QuoteInput and Insured. QuoteInput has one Insured and Insured belongs to QuoteInput. I don''t understand what I''m seeing. I assign an Insured to a QuoteInput. The Insured object has invalid data. I call save! on the quote input. QuoteInput has no validations. I expect two things to happen - 1) an exception should be thrown, indicating that there was a

class Address < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :addressable, :polymorphic => true end class Client < ActiveRecord::Base has_one :address, :as => :addressable end Now I''am able to create a correct entry in the db for address with addressable_id = 1#client_id addreassable_type = ''Client'' but when I retrieve client = Client.find(1) --> return client

I''m looking for a way to make this work (I think the code is more explanatory at this point): ## THIS WORKS has_many :images, :as => :imageable, :dependent => :destroy, :order => ''position ASC'' # @product.images => # ## THIS DOESNT has_one :featured_image, :as => :imageable, :conditions => "position = 1" # @product.featured_image =>

Hello, I''m just starting out with both Rails and Ruby, so I hope this isn''t too simple of a question - but I''ve been struggling to find a solution. I''m using the file_column plugin to handle image uploads and thumbnail generation. In addition, I''ve wrapped the image into a polymorphic table so I can have uploaded images associated with multiple

I have the following models: class Card < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :deck belongs_to :front, :polymorphic => true belongs_to :back, :polymorphic => true end class TextContent < ActiveRecord::Base has_one :card, :as => :front has_one :card, :as => :back end The conflicting has_one declarations don''t work. What I need is

I am using RoR ActiveRecord polymorphic inheritance and was wondering if it''s possible to access the base class'' association methods in the invocation of either to_xml or to_json without having to depict the base class data in the serialized string. Here are my classes: # base class class Asset < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :resource, :polymorphic => true

Hi, seem to keep running into a wall here. I can''t find any resources on site navigation that can deal with any model being in the nav, allow nesting, and can dynamically update. So I thought about it for a while, and decided on a MenuItems class, which contained the position of the child in relation to it''s siblings, where the parent and the child were polymorphic. Then a given

I have 3 models . Doctor, Patient and User with following associations class Doctor < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :patients, :dependent => :destroy has_one :user, :as => :userable accepts_nested_attributes_for :user end class Patient < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :doctor has_one :user, :as => :userable accepts_nested_attributes_for :user end class User <

I have done a little polymorphic associations stuff and have refreshed my memory on it again. What it seems like is that if I have a particular record and I want to make it easy for many different parent records to associate with it using has_one or has_many, that is fine. If I want a parent record to have multiple kinds of children through one association, I don''t see how to do that

Hi, Why is it that polymorphic associations only work with the :has_many and :belongs_to relationships? Why can''t it be a :has_one? Matt

Consider the following: class Event belongs_to :event_object, :polymorphic => true end class Asset < ActiveRecord::Base end class EventedAsset < Asset has_one :event, :as => :event_object end EventedAsset.find(:first).event generates the following SQL: SELECT * FROM `events` WHERE (events.event_object_id = 1 AND events.event_object_type = ''Asset'') LIMIT 1

The setup: class Location::Base < ActiveRecord::Base set_table_name :locations ... end class Location::Address < Location::Base ... end class Location::Airport < Location::Base ... end class Person < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :location, :polymorphic => true, :class_name => "Location::Base" ... end I want a unidirectional belongs_to relationship. That

Hi there- I''m a newbie to this board, RoR, and web development in general. So please forgive me if this is in the wrong place or if the solution is really simple... I''m trying to conceptualize the relationships between a series of models for a page creation function. What I''d like is to have a Content Page which consists of a series of Content Blocks. The Content

I''ve read the stuff about polymorphic associations here: http://wiki.rubyonrails.org/rails/pages/UnderstandingPolymorphicAssociations But I''m not sure what exactly they are and what their advantage is. Are they the same as HABTM, but they''re "two-way"? Joe -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

As great as Rails 2.1 is, I for the life of me cannot figure out why polymorphic associations do not support reconfiguring the type column used. For example, I have no way to do a polymorphic association using a lookup hash which maps an integer to a class name. Storing a TINYINT unsigned is waaaaay more efficient than storing a string like "SomeActiveRecordModel" over and over again.

Hi to everyone, I have the following models: class Attachment < ActiveRecord::Base has_attachment :content_type => [:image, ''application/pdf''], :max_size => 3.megabytes, :path_prefix => ''../private/attachments'', :storage => :file_system, :processor => :rmagick,

Hello, I am not sure of the best way to model this situation in Rails and would appreciate some guidance. An order can hold multiple line items. Each line item is for a certain number of any given product. There are four products, each in a different table because they have completely different attributes. So I have: Order - has many LineItems LineItem - belongs to an Order

Hello, I have a scenario where I want to save a author image and book image to assets table... I am using a polymorphic association. And author_name is inside the books table. now when I save the image the imageable_type says "Book" for both. And off-course it''s a correct behavior, but I am just trying to figure out is there any way where I can save author image and

I have just updated rails and added polymorphic associations but they are not working properly. I''m following the recipe 17 of "Rails Recipes" and I''m getting an "Unknown key(s): as" error. These associations work properly on the console. The problem occurs when I''m listing the items... perhaps the problem is pagination. Is this a bug or what
