No route matches when trying to edit
- by mmichael
Here's the scoop: I've created a test app that allows users to create ideas and then add "bubbles" to these ideas. Currently, a bubble is just text. I've successfully linked bubbles to ideas. Furthermore, when a user goes to view an idea it lists all of the bubbles attached to that idea. The user can even delete the bubble for any given idea.
My problem lies in editing bubbles. When a user views an idea, he sees the idea's content as well as any bubbles for that idea. As a result, I've set all my bubble controls (editing and deleting) inside the ideas "show" view. My code for editing a bubble for an idea is <%= link_to 'Edit Bubble', edit_idea_bubble_path %>. I ran rake routes to find the correct path for editing bubbles and that is what was listed.
Here's my error: No route matches {:action=>"edit", :controller=>"bubbles"}
In my bubbles controller I have:
def edit
@idea = Idea.find(params[:idea_id])
@bubble = @idea.bubbles.find(params[:id])
end
def update
@idea = Idea.find(params[:idea_id])
@bubble = @idea.bubbles.find(params[:id])
respond_to do |format|
if @bubble.update_attributes(params[:bubble])
format.html { redirect_to(@bubble,
:notice => 'Bubble was successfully updated.') }
format.xml { head :ok }
else
format.html { render :action => "Edit" }
format.xml { render :xml => @bubble.errors,
:status => :unprocessable_entity }
end
end
end
To go a step further, I have the following in my routes.rb file
resources :ideas do
resources :bubbles
end
So far everything seems to function except when I try to edit a bubble.
I'd love some guidance.
Thanks!
