After removing dimensions
from my table, my scaffolded view hit this error: undefined method 'dimensions'
for this code:
<div class="field">
<%= f.label :dimensions %><br>
<%= f.text_field :dimensions %>
</div>
I want to keep this dimention field in the form and in the controller I want to split this string into length, width, height.
Now what should I do?
Try this into your model
to keep this attribute dimensions
as virtual attributes
Class ModelName < ActiveRecord::Base
attr_accessor :dimensions
end
You need a virtual attribute, which is done using attr_accessor
attr_accessor
is a ruby method for creating getter
and setter
methods. This basically means you're able to create a series of virtual attributes
for use in your models
Class Table < ActiveRecord::Base
attr_accessor :dimensions
end
If you only want to use it in the controller then instead of using f.text_field :dimensions
, use text_field_tag :dimensions
. You can access this attribute in the action directly by using params[:dimensions]
