I am following the Import CSV Railscast and it is straight forward.
I added require 'csv'
to my config/application.rb
In my BuildingsController
I created a new import
action like so:
def import
Building.import(params[:file])
redirect_to root_url, notice: "Buildings imported."
end
In my view, I have this:
<h2>Import Buildings</h2>
<%= form_tag import_buildings_path, multipart: true do %>
<%= file_field_tag :file %>
<%= submit_tag "Import" %>
<% end %>
This is in my Building.rb
model:
def self.import(file)
CSV.foreach(file.path, headers: true) do |row|
building = find_by_name(row["name"]) || new
building.attributes = row.to_hash.slice(*accessible_attributes)
building.save!
end
end
In my routes.rb
, I have this:
resources :buildings do
collection { post :import }
end
When I click the 'import' button on my view, I get this error:
NoMethodError at /buildings/import
Message undefined method `path' for nil:NilClass
File /myapp/app/models/building.rb
Line 23
Thoughts?
