Ruby on Rails：如果帖子没有保存，我将如何留在同一页面？

Question

def create
    @addpost = Post.new params[:data]
    if @addpost.save
        flash[:notice] = "Post has been saved successfully."
        redirect_to posts_path
    else
        flash[:notice] = "Post can not be saved, please enter information."
    end
end

If the post is not saved then it redirects to http://0.0.0.0:3000/posts , but i need to stay on the page, with text input fields so that user can input data.

post model

class Post < ActiveRecord::Base

    has_many :comments
    validates :title, :presence => true
    validates :content, :presence => true
    validates :category_id, :presence => true
    validates :tags, :presence => true
end

new method

def new
    @arr_select = { 1=>"One",2=>"Two" ,3=>"Three" }
    @categories_select = Category.all.collect {|c| [ c.category_name, c.id ] }
end

new.html.erb

<h3>Add post</h3>

<%= form_tag :controller=>'posts', :action=>'create' do %>
    <%= label :q, :Title %>
    <%= text_field :data, :title, :class => :addtextsize %><br/>
    <%= label :q, :Content %>
    <%= text_area  :data, :content, :rows=>10 , :class => :addtextarea %><br/>
    <%= label :q, :Category %>
    <%= select :data, :category_id, @categories_select %><br/>
    <%= label :q, :Tags %>
    <%= text_field :data, :tags, :class => :addtextsize %><br/>
    <%= label :q, :Submit %>
    <%= submit_tag "Add Post" %>
<% end %>

What should i do ?

Answer 1

flash.now with render is what you're looking for.

flash.now[:notice] = "Post can not be saved, please enter information."
render :new

Also instead of

flash[:notice] = "Post has been saved successfully."
redirect_to posts_path

you can just write

redirect_to posts_path, :notice => "Post has been saved successfully."

and it will do the same thing. It works only with redirect_to though, not with render!

Answer 2

Something like this should do what you want:

flash[:notice] = "Post can not be saved, please enter information."
render :new

UPDATE : You updated your question so I have to update my answer. Render is the right way to do this. However, it looks like you load some categories and some other collection of stuff in your new method. Those same instance variables should be available to your create method. The cleanest way to do this is put them into another method and have that method used as a before_filter applied to both create and new . Something like this:

before_filter :load_stuff, :only => [:create, :new]

def load_stuff
  @arr_select = { 1=>"One",2=>"Two" ,3=>"Three" }
  @categories_select = Category.all.collect {|c| [ c.category_name, c.id ] }
end

Then your new method is pretty much blank and calling render :new in your create method should work.

Answer 3

Hey this answer is super late but thought I'd add it for anyone that comes across it. Probably the most simple solution for what you want to achieve is to add required: true to all of the form inputs you want filled out. Eg

f.text_field :title, required: true, class: "whateverclassyouwant" 

This way the form will ONLY be submitted if these fields have been filled in correctly and if not an error flash message will pop up on the field that it needs to be completed. The default flash messages that pop up can be custom styled also, Google how to do so.

This way you can remove the else redirect all together in your create method as it will never get to that point, and just have the if save, flash success etc.
