Rails best_in_place gem with nested resource - ruby-on-rails-3

Question

Does anyone know if it is possible (and, if so, what the syntax is) for using a nested resource with the best_in_place gem?
My routes.rb looks something like this
resources :users do
resources :goals
end
I would like to edit the :description field of the goal, but the code in my view for
<%= best_in_place [#user, #goal], :description %>
gives a NoMethodError saying
undefined method `description' for #<Array:0x20e0d28>
Using
<%= best_in_place #goal, :description %>
give me an undefined method error also because there is no goal_path
I can get the gem to work for #user (the non nested resource) field without problems.
I'm running Rails 3.1.1, Ruby 1.9.2, best_in_place 1.0.4

Answer 1

I figured it out.
I needed to set the path option in the call like so
<%= best_in_place #goal, :description, :path => user_goal_path %>
It works like a champ now!

Answer 2

Add path and the objects to the path:
<%= best_in_place #goal, :description, :path => user_goal_path(#user,#goal) %>
Somehow the simple path solution of bknoles didn't work for me.

Answer 3

Now above method is deprecated.
According to latest Documentation use ":url" instead of ":path" like below in the example
<%= best_in_place #goal, :description, :url => user_goal_path %>
Cheers!

Answer 4

Thank you, #bknoles. Your answer definitely helped me reach a similar solution of my own. Here's my implementation:
#widget.rb
class Widget < ActiveRecord::Base
validates_presence_of :name
has_many :gadgets
attr_accessible :name, :description
end
#gadget.rb
class Gadget < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :widget
attr_accessible :name, :widget_id, :id
end
#gadgets_controller.rb
def update
#gadget=#widget.gadgets.find(params[:id])
if #gadget.update_attributes(params[:gadget])
respond_to do |format|
format.html
format.json { respond_with_bip(#gadget) }
end
else
respond_to do |format|
format.html { render :action => "edit" }
format.json { respond_with_bip(#gadget) }
end
end
end
#views/gadgets/_gadget.html.haml
%tr{ :name => "gadget_", :id => gadget.id }
%td= gadget.created_at.localtime.strftime("%B %d, %l:%M%p")
%td.big=best_in_place gadget, :name, :path => [#widget, gadget]
%td.delete{:style => 'text-align:center;'}
=check_box_tag "gadget_ids[]", gadget.id, false, :class => "checkbox"
