rails xml to active record object
- by Brian D.
I've been googling for a while to try and convert and incoming XML request into an active record object. I've tried using the ActiveRecordObject.new.from_xml method but it doesn't seem to handle relationships.
For example, say I have the following xml:
<blog>
<title></title>
<blog-pages>
<blog-page>
<page-number></page-number>
<content></content>
</blog-page>
</blog-pages>
</blog>
And I have the following model objects:
class Blog < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :blog_pages
end
class BlogPage < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :blog
end
Is there a way to convert the xml into a blog object WITH relationships? Or do I need to manually parse the XML?
Thanks in advance.
