AngularJS + Rails发布请求

Question

I'm trying to learn to use AngularJS as the front-end framework in Rails applications. So far, I'm able to display a list of resources from the Rails app in view using Angular, and I can send a delete request with Angular. However, I'm having difficulty creating new resources. If someone could tell me what I might be doing wrong, that would be really appreciated.

edit I've made a bit of progresses. Looking at heroku logs, I realized I had made a silly mistake and forgot to account for the authenticity token. Now I'm getting the error: ArgumentError (When assigning attributes, you must pass a hash as an argument.):

var app = angular.module('shop', ['ngResource']);

app.factory('models', ['$resource', function($resource){
    var orders_model = $resource("/orders/:id.json", {id: "@id"});
    var products_model = $resource("/products/:id.json", {id: "@id"});
    var users_model = $resource("/users/:id.json", {id: "@id"});
    var x = {
        orders: orders_model,
        products: products_model,
        users: users_model
    };
    return x;
}]);

app.controller('OrdersCtrl', ['$scope', 'models', function($scope, models){
    $scope.orders = models.orders.query();
    $scope.products = models.products.query();
    $scope.users = models.users.query();
    $scope.addOrder = function(){
        order = models.orders.save($scope.newOrder, function(){
            recent_order = models.orders.get({id: order.id});
            $scope.orders.push(recent_order);

        models.orders.delete(order);
        $scope.orders.splice($scope.orders.indexOf(order), 1);

Answer 1

Try this instead

app.factory('Order', ['$resource', function($resource) {
  return $resource('/api/orders/:id.json', null,
    {
        'update': { method:'PATCH' }
    });
}]);

and then something like this in Angular.

app.controller('OrdersCtrl', ['$scope', 'models' 'Order', function($scope, models, Order){
...

   $scope.addOrder = function(){
        var order = new Order($scope.newOrder);
        Order.save(order, function(res){
            $scope.orders.push(res);
            $scope.newOrder = '';
        });
    }
 })

Your newOrder object isn't an instance of ngResource so when you are calling save on it, that doesn't work. Assuming you are having some console errors in your browser as well along those lines.

You also need the update: patch custom method on ngResource because Rails looks for updates as patch and not put or else you will be asking that question after you figure out this one :).

Answer 2

Aha, I finally have it working. I made a silly typo:

In the create action of the orders controller

   @order = Order.create(:order_params)

should be

   @order = Order.create(order_params)
