class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :commenter, :class_name => "User", :foreign_key => "commenter_user_id"
belongs_to :student, :class_name => "User", :foreign_key => "student_user_id"
They both belong to User.
I get it if this is done once because it helps to make it more clearer or whatnot ...
But why twice to map it back to the same table?!?!?
So, as result Comment columns are this:
[0] "id",
[1] "comment",
[2] "student_user_id",
[3] "commenter_user_id",
[4] "created_at",
[5] "updated_at",
[6] "partnership_id"
Please excuse this if it seems same as my previous question. For me, it's not. Or maybe I didn't get it clearly enough. Hm.
A Comment
can be posted by a Commentator
who is a User
and a Comment
can also be posted by a Student
who is also a User
So it is best to define like your way
class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :commenter, :class_name => "User", :foreign_key => "commenter_user_id"
belongs_to :student, :class_name => "User", :foreign_key => "student_user_id"
rather than just defining like this
class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :commenter
belongs_to :student
