Arbitrary attributes error with has_one association and Factory Girl
- by purpletonic
I'm trying to build a basic shopping cart for a Rails app I'm working on.
Nothing special,
- the shopping cart has many line_items
- each line_item has_one product associated and a quantity with it
class Cart < ActiveRecord::Base
attr_accessible :line_items
has_many :line_items, :dependent => :destroy
end
class LineItem < ActiveRecord::Base
attr_accessible :quantity, :product
belongs_to :cart
has_one :product
end
I'm trying to use RSpec to test this association, but i'm doing something wrong as I'm getting an error that says: DEPRECATION WARNING: You're trying to create an attribute 'line_item_id'. Writing arbitrary attributes on a model is deprecated, and I'm not sure why.
In my factories.rb file I'm defining the line_item factory as follows:
factory :line_item do
quantity { Random.rand(1..5) }
product
end
factory :cart do
factory :cart_with_two_line_items do
ignore do
line_item_count 2
end
after(:create) do |cart, evaluator|
FactoryGirl.create_list(:line_item, evaluator.line_item_count, cart_id: cart)
end
end
end
Any pointers where I'm going wrong, it's probably something basic, but I'm still quite new to Rspec. Thanks in advance.
