I am trying to figure out my superclass mismatch error. All the posts I've read about this describe the problem as being that User is defined twice as a class in my application.
In my case, it isn't defined twice. I have a services folder and within that I have a user folder (for user service classes). In that user folder, I have a file called organisation_mapper_service.rb, with:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
class OrganisationMapperService
def self.call(user: u)
new(user: user).call
end
def initialize(user: u)
self.user = user
end
def call
if matching_organisation.present?
# user.organisation_request.new(organisation_id: matching_organisation.id)
# user.update_attributes!(organisation_id: matching_organisation.id)
else
#SystemMailer.unmatched_organisation(user: user).deliver_now
end
end
private
attr_accessor :user
def matching_organisation
User::OrganisationMapperService.new(user).matching_organisation
end
end
end
Separate to that, I have my user model which defines user as:
class User < ApplicationRecord
I thought it should be fine to define the service class in the way I have because it inherits from ActiveRecord::Base rather than ApplicationRecord.
Can anyone see what I've done wrong here? Where else could I look for a second definition of User?
TAKING SERGIO'S SUGGESTION
I change the user organisation mapper service to open as follows:
class User::OrganisationMapperService < ActiveRecord::Base
But that then gives an error with my Users::OrgRequestsController which has new defined as follows:
def new
@all_organisations = Organisation.select(:title, :id).map { |org| [org.title, org.id] }
@org_request = OrgRequest.new#form(OrganisationRequest::Create)
matched_organisation = User::OrganisationMapperService.new(current_user).matching_organisation
@org_request.organisation_id = matched_organisation.try(:id)
end
the error message then says:
PG::UndefinedTable at /users/4/org_requests/new
ERROR: relation "user_organisation_mapper_services" does not exist
LINE 8: WHERE a.attrelid = '"user_organisation_mapper...
**TAKING SERGIO'S SUGGESTION (exactly) **
I change my service class to:
class User::OrganisationMapperService
But then I get an error that says:
wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 0)
That error highlights this line of my service class:
def initialize(user: u)
self.user = user
end
I don't know what to do about that because I clearly have a user if there is an inheritance from user.
