Unable to get simple ruby on rails Search to work :/
- by edu222
I am new to RoR, any help would be greatly appreciated :)
I have a basic scaffolding CRUD app to add customers.
I am trying to search by first_name or last_name fields.
The error that I am getting is:
NoMethodError in Clientes#find
You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
You might have expected an instance of Array.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.each
Extracted source (around line #9):
6: <th>Apellido</th>
7: </tr>
8:
9: <% for cliente in @clientes %>
10: <tr>
11: <td><%=h cliente.client_name %></td>
12: <td><%=h cliente.client_lastname %></td>
Application Trace
C:/Rails/clientes/app/views/clientes/find.html.erb:9:in `_run_erb_app47views47clientes47find46html46erb'
My find function in controllers/clientes_controlee.rb is:
# Find
def find
@cliente = Cliente.find(:all,
:conditions=>["client_name = ? OR client_lastname = ?", params[:search_string], params[:search_string]])
end
My views/layouts clientes.html.erb form code fragment is:
<span style="text-align: right">
<% form_tag "/clientes/find" do %>
<%= text_field_tag :search_string %>
<%= submit_tag "Search" %>
<% end %>
</span>
The search template I created in views/clientes/find.html.erb:
<h1>Listing clientes for <%= params[:search_string] %></h1>
<table>
<tr>
<th>Nombre</th>
<th>Apellido</th>
</tr>
<% for cliente in @clientes %>
<tr>
<td><%=h cliente.client_name %></td>
<td><%=h cliente.client_lastname %></td>
<td><%= link_to 'Mostrar', cliente %></td>
<td><%= link_to 'Editar', edit_cliente_path(cliente) %></td>
<td><%= link_to 'Eliminar', cliente, :confirm =>'Estas Seguro de que desear eliminar a este te cliente?', :method => :delete %></td>
</tr>
<% end %>
</table>
<%= link_to 'Atras', clientes_path %
