Rails Habtm with a field
- by moshimoshi
Hello,
Is that possible to have a field in a has and belongs to many table?
Just like favorite:
create_table :messages_users, :id => false, :force => true do |t|
t.integer :message_id, :null => false
t.integer :user_id, :null => false
t.boolean :favorite, :null => false
t.timestamps
end
I saw timestamps works well, thanks to ActiveRecord. But when I try to add favorite into the table and then I try:
Message.first.users << User.first
Then I get this error message:
ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid:
SQLite3::SQLException:
messages_users.favorite may not be
NULL: INSERT INTO "messages_users"
("created_at", "message_id",
"updated_at", "user_id") VALUES
('''2010-05-27 06:07
:50.721512''', 1, '''2010-05-27
06:07:50.721512''', 1)
I would like to use a habtm, I don't like has_many foo though bar association :)
Is that possible?
Thanks a lot.
