Question

Referencing question #2013421, I have the following RoR models:

class Game < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :piles
end

class Pile < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :game
end

For the sake of argument, suppose Game has an attribute name, and Pile has an attribute type, both string. There are precisely 10 piles per game.

I would like a single HTML form to create a new Game, similar to the one generated by ruby scriptgenerate scaffold; that is like:

<h1>New game</h1>

<% form_for(@game) do |f| %>
  <%= f.error_messages %>

  <p>
    <%= f.label :name %><br />
    <%= f.text_field :name %>
  </p>
  <p>
    <%= f.submit  Create  %>
  </p>
<% end %>

<%= link_to  Back , games_path %>

How can I add fields to the form in order to read values for the Pile.type field for each of the 10 piles?

Answer 1

You can do something like this:

model:

class Game < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :piles
  accepts_nested_attributes_for :piles
end

in your form:

 <% f.fields_for :piles do |pile_form| %>

   <%= pile_form.label :your_attribute %>
   <%= pile_form.text_field :your_attribute %>

 <% end %>

Consider that type method-keyword-column is reserved by ActiveRecord to achieve polymorphic associations
