在设计用户模型上添加额外的字段

Question

I am trying to create new user with custom fields. I have created a migration and successfully added new fields to the database table.

add_column :users, :status, :string

On my view

<%= form_for @user do |f| %>
<div class="form-group">
  <label for="status">Status:</label>
  <%= f.collection_select :status, {'1' => :Live, '2' => :Restricted }, :first, :last, {prompt: "Status"}, {class: "form-control"}%>
 </div>

On my controller

def user_params
params.require(:user).permit(:email, :status)

end

And when I am trying to save a new user I am getting the following error message.

:status=>["is not included in the list"]

You have to configure the permitted parameters for the sign_up , sign_in and account_update Devise actions in your application_controller . Something like this:

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  before_action :configure_permitted_parameters, if: :devise_controller?

  protected

  def configure_permitted_parameters
    devise_parameter_sanitizer.for(:sign_up) << :status
    devise_parameter_sanitizer.for(:sign_in) << :status
    devise_parameter_sanitizer.for(:account_update) << :status
  end
end

See this for reference and more information on this.

Also, you need to comply with the validation that you may have for the status field of your User model.
