I'm trying to give users on my website "points" or "credits" for tweeting about out the brand name.
I have the fancy twitter widget on the appropriate view...
<p><a href="https://twitter.com/share" class="twitter-share-button" data-text="Check Out This Awesome Website Yay" data-via="BrandName" data-hashtags="ProductName">Tweet</a>
<div id="credited"></div>
<script>window.twttr = (function (d, s, id) {
var t, js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src= "https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
return window.twttr || (t = { _e: [], ready: function (f) { t._e.push(f) } });
}(document, "script", "twitter-wjs"));
</script>
I have the JS all written up and pretty....
function creditTweet() {
$.post(
"/credit_tweet",
{},
function(result) {
var text;
if (result.status === "noop") {
text = "Thanks for sharing already!";
} else if (result.status === "ok") {
text = "5 Kredit Added";
}
$("#credited").html(text);
}
);
}
$(function() {
twttr.ready(function (twttr) {
window.twttr.events.bind('tweet', creditTweet);
});
});
Now the problem is either in the controller OR in the routes (where I'm posting). I think the routes are fine because the POST is almost working, because this is the description of the error on wikipedia - "422 Unprocessable Entity (WebDAV; RFC 4918) The request was well-formed but was unable to be followed due to semantic errors."
So, do you guys see anything wrong with my ruby code in the controller?
class SocialKreditController < ApplicationController
TWEET_CREDIT_AMOUNT = 5
def credit_tweet
if !signed_in?
render json: { status: :error }
elsif current_user.tweet_credited
Rails.logger.info "Not crediting #{ current_user.id }"
render json: { status: :noop }
else
Rails.logger.info "Crediting #{ current_user.id }"
current_user.update_attributes tweet_credited: true
current_user.add_points TWEET_CREDIT_AMOUNT
render json: { status: :ok }
end
end
end
And in my routes.rb, it's pretty straight forward, so I doubt there's anything wrong here...
get 'social_kredit/credit_tweet'
post '/credit_tweet' => 'social_kredit#credit_tweet'
Where oh where is this error? I clearly don't know smack about HTTP requests.
