We want to send an autogenerated E-Mail with an full path to the profile. How do we this
<%=link_to('Link', :controller => 'mycontroller', :action => 'show', :id => #mycontroller.id )%>
The link_to command only builds the link in the mail like this
mycontroller/show/id
we need an link like this structure
http://www.server.tld/mycontroller/show/id
Can everyone help us please?
you can pass :only_path => false
<%= link_to('Link', :controller => 'mycontroller', :action => 'show', :id => #mycontroller.id, :only_path => false ) %>

I'm attempting to update my stripe subscription via and edit page but it doesn't seem to like whatever i throw at it.
Here is my routes.rb
get 'subscribe' => 'subscribe#stepone'
get 'subscribe/sliding-scale' => 'subscribe#steptwo'
get 'subscribe/sliding-scale/subscriber' => 'subscribe#subscriber'
get 'subscribe/sliding-scale/supporter' => 'subscribe#supporter'
get 'subscribe/sliding-scale/sustainer' => 'subscribe#sustainer'
post 'subscribe/sliding-scale/:type' => 'subscribe#createSubscription'
get 'subscribe/edit' => 'subscribe#edit', :as => :edit_subscription
match '/subscribe/edit', to: 'subscribe#deleteCard', via: :delete
match '/subscribe/edit', to: 'subscribe#updateSubscription', via: :post
post 'subscribe/edit/changeSubscription' => 'subscribe#changeSubscription', :as => :change_subscription
My subscription controller:
def changeSubscription
customer = Stripe::Customer.retrieve(#user.stripeCustomerId)
#plan = params[:plan]
#user.update_subscription(:plan => #plan, :prorate => true)
current_role = #user.roles.first.name
#user.remove_role current_role
current_user.add_role params[#plan]
end
and lastly my edit view:
<h2>Change My Subscription</h2>
<h3>Your current plan is: <%= current_user.roles.first.name %>
<%= select_tag #plan, options_for_select([['Subscriber'], ['Sustainer'], ['Supporter']]) %>
<%= link_to "Update", change_subscription_path, :confirm => "You sure?", :plan => #plan %>
I'm attempting to send the new plan to the controller to update both the local role and the plan but it seems not to be able to find the proper route to do so. Not sure what i'm doing wrong in this regard.
Thanks for your help!
You need to perform a POST request to change_subscription_path, but you're requesting the page with a simple link_to so it's a GET request.
Add :method => :post in your link_to options:
<%= link_to "Update", change_subscription_path, :confirm => "You sure?", :method => :post, :plan => #plan %>
Alternatively, you can:
use a form instead of a link and submit it with the POST method
change the method for the changeSubscription action from POST to GET in routes.rb
I have this form, which is not bound to any model, that I want to ajaxify. I've tried to figure out how to get it to submit via ajax, but I must be doing something wrong because it is not working (it just does a regular POST).
I can confirm that the form tag renders with a 'remote' attribute, but there is not js added anywhere to the form. I also added the :confirm just to see if that would work as well. It does not.
jquery and jquery_ujs are both loaded on the page.
%form{ :action => "/newsletter", :confirm => "Are you sure?", :remote => true, :method => "post", :id => "newsletterForm"}
%p
= label_tag(:q, "Subscribe to our newsletter:")
%p
= text_field_tag(:q, nil, :placeholder => "Your email address")
= button_to("Subscribe", :remote => true)
I just wrote this doing something similar with a form get:
= form_tag('/signup', :method => "get", :remote => true, :id=> 'signup-form') do
%label{:id => 'signup-label', :for=> 'signup-box'}
Enter your email address
= text_field_tag "signup-box", params[:signup], :class => 'text', :required => true, :id => 'signup-box'
= submit_tag "Sign Up", :id => 'signup'
Controller:
class SignupController < ApplicationController
def index
puts "***************************************************"
puts "email sign up"
puts "***************************************************"
render :nothing => true
end
end
OK, I've been having relative success with RESTful authentication. I followed this tutorial to add the capability to change the password. The problem is that tutorial is written for rails 2.3 and I'm using rails 3.
The code used in my controller and view are exactly as they are in the tutorial
I added to routes.rb:
match '/change_password' => 'users#change_password', :as => :change_password
resources :users, :controller => 'users', :collection => {:change_password_update => :put}
Now i get this error: undefined method `change_password_update_user_path'
the comments to the tutorial mentioned that exact error, and they said the solution is in the routing, but given the routing differences between 2.3 and 3, I'm really just guessing what needs to go in there. Any idea how i can get this working?
all i had to do is change
<% form_tag change_password_update_user_path(current_user), :method => :put do |f| %>
to
<% form_tag '/change_password_update', :method => :put do |f| %>
and put this in my routes.rb
match '/change_password' => 'users#change_password', :as => :change_password
match '/change_password_update' => 'users#change_password_update', :as => :change_password_update
resources :users, :controller => 'users', :collection => {:change_password_update => :put}
I'm using a link_to to create an object in my Rails 3 app. Searching has given me the proper way to use link_to with the :post method, but I'm wondering if using link_to to pass in a name value for my object as well. Here is my link:
<%= link_to "Todo text", {:controller => "profiles", :action => "create_inside", :method => :post}, :class => "button white" %>
My profiles_controller.rb:
def create_inside
#todo = Insidetodo.new
#todo.save!
if #todo.save
redirect_to #profile.todo, :notice => 'Todo successfully added.'
else
render :action => 'new'
end
end
My todo.rb model:
class Todo < ActiveRecord::Base
has_and_belongs_to_many :profiles
validates :name, :presence => true
end
Is there a way to add in :name => "#{#user.profile.todotext}" to the link_to so that it passes and saves? I don't know if it's creating properly because at the moment when I click a link_to I get a validation error - Validation failed: Name can't be blank.
For passing name in the link_to
<%= link_to "Todo text", {:controller => "profiles", :action => "create_inside", :name => "#{#user.profile.todotext}", :method => :post}, :class => "button white" %>
and the controller must be
def create_inside
#todo = Insidetodo.new(:name => params[:name])
if #todo.save
redirect_to #todo.goal, :notice => 'Todo successfully added.'
else
render :action => 'new'
end
end
But the link_to will pass the name parameter in url only(like Todo text).
If you want the name not to be sent in the url, you might want to use a form and use a submit button instead of the link as it is representing an action and not a link.
<%= form_tag(:controller => "profile", :action => "create_profile") do -%>
<%= hidden_field_tag :name, #user.profile.todotext %>
<%= submit_tag "Todo Text" %>
<% end -%>
I am a little confused on how to set the route for a custom action. I have the following link in my view:
<%= link_to 'mark done', finish_task_path(task.id), :method => :post %>
In my tasks_controller I have:
def finish
#task = Task.find(params[:id])
new = {:status => "done"}
#task.update_attributes(new)
redirect_to :action => "index"
end
In my routes file I have:
match '/tasks/:id/finish', :to => 'tasks#finish'
I have also tried the following in my view:
<%= link_to 'mark done', finish_task_path(task.id), :method => :post %>
Which also has not worked. How do I set the route correctly?
You've created a route, but it is not named. Does this work?
match '/tasks/:id/finish', :to => 'tasks#finish', :as => 'finish_task'
Have a look at the output of rake routes to ensure your routes are being declared as you want.
