I have implement devise registration with multiple model from this answer. This tuts get params user_type
from path.
I want to change this with select user_type
. So a param user_type will get when I select a value on select_tag
.
I have some code looks like :
routes.rb
namespace :cp do
devise_scope :user do
match '/add_user' => 'registrations#new'
match '/select/admin' => 'registrations#selectuser', :user => { :usertype => 'admin' }
match '/select/player' => 'registrations#selectuser', :user => { :usertype => 'player' }
end
end
registrations_controller.rb
def selectuser
respond_to do |format|
format.js
end
end
new.html.erb
<h2>Add User</h2>
<%= form_for(resource, :as => resource_name, :url => registration_path(resource_name)) do |f| %>
<%= devise_error_messages! %>
<div><%= f.label :username, "Username" %><br />
<%= f.text_field :username %></div>
<div><%= f.label :email, "Email" %><br />
<%= f.email_field :email %></div>
<div><%= f.label :password, "Password" %><br />
<%= f.password_field :password %></div>
<div><%= f.label :password_confirmation, "Password Confirmation" %><br />
<%= f.password_field :password_confirmation %></div>
<div><%= f.label :usertype, "Select User Type" %><br />
<%= f.select(:usertype, options_for_select([['-- User Type --', nil], ['Admin', 'admin'], ['Player', 'player']], selected: '-- User Type --' )) %>
</div>
<div id="selectuser">
</div>
<% end %>
<div><%= f.submit "Submit" %></div>
<% end %>
<script type="text/javascript">
$("#user_usertype").on('change', function() {
var s = $(this).val();
$.ajax({
type: 'GET',
url: 'http://localhost:3000/cp/select/' + s,
dataType: "HTML"
});
});
</script>
selectuser.js.erb
<% params[:user][:usertype] ||= 'admin'
if ["admin", "player"].include? params[:user][:usertype].downcase
child_class_name = params[:user][:usertype].downcase.camelize
usertype = params[:user][:usertype].downcase
else
child_class_name = "Admin"
usertype = "admin"
end
nesteds = fields_for child_class_name.constantize.new do |rf|
render :partial => child_class_name.underscore + '_fields', :locals => {:f => rf}
end
%>
$("#selectuser").append("<%= j nesteds %>");
When I select admin value, log :
Started GET "/cp/select/admin" for 127.0.0.1 at 2013-10-21 17:00:04 +0700

But _admin_fields.html.erb
not appear on #selectuser
you are mixing up several things here.
- your routes define a default
if you need to select from a dropdown, there is no need to define a default value here. it just complicates things
match '/add_user' => 'registrations#new', :user => { :usertype => nil }
match '/select/admin' => 'registrations#selectuser', :user => { :usertype => 'admin' }
match '/select/player' => 'registrations#selectuser', :user => { :usertype => 'player' }
- you are not using the right form helpers
you need to use f.select
if you want to get an output of params[:user][:usertype]
. if your model does not have such a property, you can add it as an attr_accessor
to your model.
<%= label :usertype, "Select User Type" %><br />
<%= select_tag(:usertype, options_for_select([['-- User Type --', nil], ['Admin', 'admin'], ['Player', 'player']], selected: '-- User Type --' )) %>
I think you've got a lot of problems, but the biggest is here:
nesteds = fields_for child_class_name.constantize.new do |rf|
render :partial => child_class_name.underscore + '_fields', :locals => {:f => rf}
You're trying to render a "fields_for
" helper in a variable. The problem is this variable is treated as a string, which means that it's no longer a helper, and won't cause the fields_for
element to appear. This is further to the fact that we don't know what part of your system is not working --
Is your Ajax firing? Are your routes sending the request correctly?
Personally, I would re-think how this part of your system works
I would remove the logic from your rendered selectuser.js.erb, and put it into the controller, like this:
def selectuser
params[:user][:usertype] ||= 'admin'
if ["admin", "player"].include? params[:user][:usertype].downcase
child_class_name = params[:user][:usertype].downcase.camelize
usertype = params[:user][:usertype].downcase
else
child_class_name = "Admin"
usertype = "admin"
end
respond_to do |format|
format.js { @render = child_class_name.underscore + '_fields', @rf = rf}
end
end
Then in your JS, you'd be able to let JS do what it was born to:
$("#selectuser").html("<%=j render :partial => @render, locals: {:f = @rf} %>");
This means that in your child_class_name_fields.html.erb, you need to have something like this:
<%= f.fields_for child_class_name.constantize.new do |rf| %>
<%= rf.text_field :name %>
<% end %>
Update
I am actually struggling with this now, because I would do it totally differently. I would move the entire logic into the controller, and only send variables to the partial through the :render function.
I don't like the idea you're trying to generate "f.fields_for" on the fly -- it should be set already, and you only change the fields inside that block. It's a principle known as DRY (don't repeat yourself) programming. If you want, I can write my preferred version for you, instead of trying to monkeypatch this one?
In your controller file return
render json: {"fields" => render_to_string(partial: "admin_fields") }
when the controller returns json to your ajax function inject with the following -
$('#selectuser').html(fields)
You have to add an = when you're trying to render your partial:
<%= params[:user][:usertype] ||= 'admin'
# ^ This makes whatever is being returned in this block to be added to the output
