设计添加用户送货地址

Question

I'm creating a marketplace. I have user accounts handled by devise. I'd like to add extra user attributes. Such as billing and shipping address (and a primary address that takes care of both for most cases).

Devise is configured using default settings. I have used this tool to generate devise controllers in my app controllers folder under the users folder. As I found quite a few posts with people trying to render a form from a different controller/view.

I generated user_address

class CreateUserAddresses < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def change
  create_table :user_addresses do |t|
    t.string :address
    t.string :city
    t.string :state
    t.integer :user_id

    t.timestamps null: false
  end
 end
end

And also added a primary address id to my users profile to be used later.

class AddPrimraryAddressIdToUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def change
    add_column :users, :primary_address_id, :integer
  end
end

Now I basically want to integrate this user_address _form.html.erb into my devise user.

./app/views/user_addresses/_form.html.erb

./app/views/devise/registrations/edit.html.erb

<div>
<% if current_user.primary_address_id.blank? %>
   Please create a primary address
      <%= render :partial => '/user_addresses/form'%>
<% end %>
</div>

Which creates and error on the edit page.

First argument in form cannot contain nil or be empty

<%= form_for(@user_address) do |f| %>
  <% if @user_address.errors.any? %>
    <div id="error_explanation">
      <h2><%= pluralize(@user_address.errors.count, "error") %> prohibited this user_address from being saved:</h2>

  <ul>

Which my understanding is because user_address is not in the devise user controller. How would I integrate everything that user_address created into the devise views and controller to clean up the directory. Or simply render the user_address form.

Thanks nic

Is there more functionality in Useraddresses going forward? Or is the sole functionality to add attributes to the User Class. If so, then checkout the post here
