Rails 5 AJAX拒绝渲染局部

Question

I created an AJAX function that allows you to click to refresh posts at the top of the stack. Unfortunately, the ajax function is receiving the wrong parameters and returning server error 500. I am simply trying to load the latest posts available (most recent) I can't catch where the error is coming from. What do I need to do to get the newest posts to load on the stack using AJAX GET in index.html.erb?

posts_controller.rb

class PostsController < ApplicationController

before_action :set_post, only: %[show edit update destroy share like]
before_action :authenticate_user!

def index
  following_ids = current_user.following_users.pluck(:id)
  following_ids << current_user.id
  @posts = Post.where(user_id: following_ids).order('created_at DESC').page(params[:page])
  @post = Post.new
end

def load_more
  following_ids = current_user.following_users.pluck(:id)
  following_ids << current_user.id
  @posts = Post.where(user_id: params[:following_ids]).order('created_at DESC').limit(20)
  respond_to do |format|
    format.html
    format.js
  end
end

I'm using friendly_id to hash ids for posts.

On your logs, you can see the load_more request has a really weird extension:

Started GET "/load_more.%23%3CPost::ActiveRecord_Relation:0x0000000016f89718%3E"

Rails think's that's the format and does not know how to render that format.

Your route is defined like this:

get "/load_more", to: "posts#load_more", as: 'load_more'

but you are using it like this

load_more_path(@posts)

and the route does not expect a parameter and it ends up using it as a format.

You should add something to the route so you know from what post "load more". I'll do something like:

get "/load_more/:last_post_id", to: "posts#load_more", as: 'load_more'

And use it like

load_more_path(@posts.last.id)

And on the controller you'll have access to params[:last_post_id] so you know you need to load more posts after that post id.

following_ids = current_user.following_users.pluck(:id)
following_ids << current_user.id
@posts = Post.where(user_id: params[:following_ids]).where('id < ?', params[:last_post_id]).order('created_at DESC').limit(20)
