Hello!
In my project, I have users and quests. One User can join multiple quests and one quest can have multiple users.
So I created a table called questing, containing the user_id and the quest_id.
In my user.rb I did following:
require 'digest/sha1'
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :questings
has_many :quests ,:through =>:questings
...
My Quest.rb:
class Quest < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :questings
has_many :users ,:through =>:questings
...
My Questing.rb:
class Questing < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :quest
belongs_to :user
end
Now I want to create a link or button on my /quests/show.html.erb, calling an action in my controller, which will create the relationship between user and quest.
So, in my quest_controller I did:
def join_quest
@quest = Quest.find(params[:id])
puts '************************'
puts 'join quest:' + @quest.id
puts '************************'
respond_to do |format|
format.html { redirect_to(@quest) }
format.xml { head :ok }
end
end
and in my show.html.erb I did:
<%= link_to 'join this quest!!!', :action => :join_quest %>
Now, clicking on this link will cause an error like: Couldn't find Quest with ID=join_quest and the url points to */quests/join_quest* instead of */quests/1/join_quest*
Now my questions:
Is my quests_controller the right place for my join_quest action, or should I move it to my users_controller?
Why do I get this error? How to solve it?
What do I have to write in my join_quest action for saving the relationship?
On my /users/show.html.erb I want to output all quests the user joined. How to do this? I have to get all this quests from my relationship table, right? How?
I hope you can help me! THX!
