Rails 5-如何将控制器中整个jsonb postgres列的参数列入白名单？

Question

I have tried to use the suggested example from github . You can also find it on some answers like this one for Rails 4.

I have tried this in Rails 5.0.1 and I just get an empty hash {} stored in the database:

def proposal_params
  params.require(:proposal).permit(:document, :account_id).tap do |whitelisted|
    whitelisted[:document] = params[:proposal][:document]
  end
end

Obviously if I just do permit! it works.

I also tried an answer from this question :

def proposal_params
  params.require(:proposal).permit(:account_id, document: Proposal.stored_attributes[:document])
end

but that also does not work.

The :document attribute contains json which is never the same between requests...and is a long and complex structure.

I just need to dump it as is into a jsonb column.

For the curious, here is an example of what can be in document :

{
   "document":{
      "customer":{
         "id":"273a0ad1-0867-4c17-8e0a-3284c6f2f6af",

Answer 1

If I'm correct you still need to permit! the document parameter:

def proposal_params
  params.require(:proposal).permit(:account_id).tap do |whitelisted|
    whitelisted[:document] = params[:proposal].fetch(:document, ActionController::Parameters.new).permit!
  end
end

The way this works is that it will only keep the account_id at first but then within tap we add the document parameter back by trying to retrieve it from the original parameters. ActionController::Parameters.new as the default value for fetch ensures that the permit! method is always callable even if no document parameter has been passed.

Under the hood ActionController::Parameters#permit! seems to recursively call the permit! function on the contained parameters as well, so we can call it on any instance:

def permit!
  each_pair do |key, value|
    Array.wrap(value).each do |v|
      v.permit! if v.respond_to? :permit!
    end
  end

  @permitted = true
  self
end

You can try:

to_unsafe_hash
