使Rails response_to为Ajax请求格式化js

Question

I'm trying to make an Ajax request that makes an update upon a radio button click without reloading an entire page.

Update action definition in my controller. There really not that much info on this part in the Rails docs.

 def update
    if @rsvp.update(rsvp_params)
      respond_to do |format|
        format.js
      end
    end
  end

update.js.erb, not sure if this code even works, but I can't test it since Rails is not even finding it:

$(document).on('ready', function() {
    $('.rsvp').on('click', function(e) {
        e.preventDefault()

        var user_id = $(.rsvp).data('user-id')
        var rsvp_id = $(.rsvp_id).data('rsvp-id')

        $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            url: "users/" + user_id + "/rsvps/" + rsvp_id
        }).done(function(response){ console.log('hello?', response)
        })
    })
})

App currently breaks down with ActionController::UnknownFormat in RsvpsController#update at the respond_to line. This posting is an extension of this one, which is trying to solve too many problems at once .

ActionController::UnknownFormat (ActionController::UnknownFormat):

app/controllers/rsvps_controller.rb:19:in `update'

UPDATE

in my routes file, I did resources :rsvps, defaults: { format: 'js' } . This got the app to process the request as JS, instead of HTML, but now it renders the update.js.erb file. DB gets updated, but no partial reload happens as desired.

try like this

$.ajax({
        type: 'POST',
        url: "users/" + user_id + "/rsvps/" + rsvp_id,
        contentType: "text/javascript"

    }).done(function(response){ 
       console.log('hello?', response)
    })

Or

 $.ajax({
        type: 'POST',
        url: "users/" + user_id + "/rsvps/" + rsvp_id.js
    }).done(function(response){ 
       console.log('hello?', response)
    })
