I've got a hippa compliant app I'm working on and as part of it I want to use the AA comments as a nested resource / commit system; if there's no comment the create or update should be rejected. I have other nested resources working (including nested within nested resources saving); the following works on update but not on new - on new I'm getting an error that a comments.resource can't be blank.
I've got the comments_attributes within the permit params; here is admin/prescription.rb:
ActiveAdmin.register Prescription do
menu :parent => "Treatments", :priority => 2
permit_params :treatment_id, :hours, :summary, :product_id, :prescription_date, prescribed_tensions_attributes: [:id, :location, :force, :position, :prescription_id, :created_at, :_destroy], comments_attributes: [:id, :namespace, :body, :resource_id, :resource_type, :author_id, :author_type]
before_filter :only => [:show, :destroy, :edit, :update] do
# @prescription = Prescription.unscoped.includes(:prescribed_tensions).find(params[:id])
@prescription = Prescription.unscoped.includes(:product, :prescribed_tensions, :patient, :doctors).find(params[:id])
end
form do |f|
f.inputs "Prescribed Dose" do
f.input :treatment, :as => :select, input_html: {class: 'select2able'}
f.input :prescription_date, as: :date_time_picker
f.input :hours
f.input :summary, :as => :rich, :config => { :width => '79%', :height => '150px' }
f.has_many :prescribed_tensions, :allow_destroy => true do |g|
g.input :location, :as => :select, input_html: {class: 'select2able'}, collection: BaseProduct.locations
g.input :force
g.input :position
end
end
f.inputs "Add A Comment" do
f.semantic_fields_for :comments, ActiveAdmin::Comment.new do |c|
c.inputs :class => "" do
c.input :body, :label => "Comment", :input_html => { :rows => 4 }
end
end
end
f.actions
end
controller do
def setup_comments
klassname = self.resource_class.name.underscore
if params[klassname][:comments_attributes]['0']['body'].blank?
err = "A comment must be added to #{params[:action]} this #{klassname}."
else
params[klassname][:comments_attributes]['0']['namespace'] = 'admin'
params[klassname][:comments_attributes]['0']['author_id'] = current_admin_user.id
params[klassname][:comments_attributes]['0']['author_type'] = 'AdminUser'
end
if !err.nil?
params[:error] = err
end
return
end
def update(options={}, &block)
setup_comments
# save resource
if params[:error].nil?
super
if resource.errors.any?
params[:error] = resource.errors.full_messages.first
end
end
# see if any error messages
if !params[:error].nil?
redirect_to({ action: 'edit' }, alert: params[:error])
end
end
def create(options={}, &block)
setup_comments
if params[:error].nil?
super
if resource.errors.any?
params[:error] = resource.errors.full_messages.first
end
end
if !params[:error].nil?
redirect_to({ action: 'index' }, alert: params[:error])
end
end
end
end
And within the model/prescription.rb:
class Prescription < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :treatment
has_one :product, through: :treatment
has_one :patient, through: :product
has_many :doctors, through: :patient
has_many :prescribed_tensions, dependent: :destroy
accepts_nested_attributes_for :prescribed_tensions, :allow_destroy => true
has_many :comments, as: :resource, dependent: :destroy, class_name: 'ActiveAdmin::Comment'
accepts_nested_attributes_for :comments
def to_s
"#{self.prescription_date.strftime('%Y-%m-%d')} : #{self.product}"
end
end
With the above I get:
#<Prescription:0x007fb402700f90
id: nil,
hours: 12,
summary: "",
prescription_date: Mon, 15 May 2017 09:31:00 EDT -04:00,
created_at: nil,
updated_at: nil,
treatment_id: 6>,
@details={:"comments.resource"=>[{:error=>:blank}]},
@messages={:"comments.resource"=>["can't be blank"]}>
I'm attempting as well to do this by hand (ie @prescription=Prescription.new(permitted_params[:prescription]) and doing the same with building @comment, but even though I'm setting
@comment.resource = @prescription -- I still can't save @prescription because comments.prescription is blank; as @prescription hasn't been saved yet.
I'm sure I'm missing something ridiculous here, but uncertain what that might be....?
