ActionController :: RoutingError：没有路由与{：period_registration => {}，：controller =>“ period_registrations”，：action =>“ save_period”}匹配

Question

I have a nested route:

resources :period_registrations do
  member do
    post :save_period
  end

that points to my controller action:

 def save_period
    @period_registration = PeriodRegistration.new(params[:registration])
    @period_registration.save
    redirect_to root_path
  end

and I have a test:

test "should get save_period" do
    sign_in(FactoryGirl.create(:user))
     assert_difference('Event.count') do
      post :save_period, period_registration: FactoryGirl.attributes_for(:period_registration)
    end
    assert_not_nil assigns(:period_registration)

    assert_response :success
  end

That when run generates the following error:

 1) Error:
test_should_get_save_period(PeriodRegistrationsControllerTest):
ActionController::RoutingError: No route matches {:period_registration=>{}, :controller=>"period_registrations", :action=>"save_period"}

What looks odd to me is that :period_registration is empty. Should it be? How can I solve this?

Answer 1

post should be defined for collection , ie you need to change your routing:

post :save_period, :on => :collection

instead of member block. As an example, rails build-in create (generated by the resources ) method also binded to a collection.

Additional notes:

1. You have an error in your controller: PeriodRegistration.new(params[:registration]) , but should be PeriodRegistration.new(params[:period_registration]) .
2. And there is a typo in test: should get save_period => should post save_period
