对accept_nested_attributes_for部分进行AJAX更新

时间:2010-11-17 15:36:29

标签: ruby-on-rails ajax partial nested-attributes multi-model-forms

我目前的工作环境是Rails 2.3.8 (我的公司没有转移到Rails 3的各种原因)。 我试图通过AJAX调用更新多模型表单的元素 - 这个想法是根据用户选择或填写其他字段的方式替换某些下拉列表。

我以前设法通过使用非基于表单的部分来实现这一点 - 我现在的问题是当部分基于form_for和fields_for时,重现选择下拉列表的AJAX更新。

对于以下文本墙感到抱歉 - 我试图尽可能地将其删除(代码本身在我的测试网站上可以正常工作)。

如何在Outbreak控制器中生成表单构建器元素,然后将其传递给partial类别以取代incident_form?

任何指针都会很棒:D

模型

class Outbreak < ActiveRecord::Base
        has_many :incidents, :dependent => :destroy
        has_many :locations, :through => :incidents

     accepts_nested_attributes_for :locations, :allow_destroy => true, :reject_if => :all_blank
     accepts_nested_attributes_for :incidents, :allow_destroy => true, :reject_if => :all_blank
end

class Incident < ActiveRecord::Base
    belongs_to :outbreak
    belongs_to :location
    belongs_to :category
    belongs_to :subcategory
    belongs_to :subtype

end

class Location < ActiveRecord::Base
    has_many :incidents, :dependent => :destroy
     has_many :outbreaks, :thorugh => incidents
end

_form

<% form_for(@outbreak, :html => {:multipart => true}) do |form| %>

  <%= render :partial => 'outbreak_type_select', :locals => {:outbreak_types => @outbreak_types, :f => form } %>
   <% form.fields_for :incidents do |incident_form| %>
      <%= render :partial => 'category_select', :locals => {:categories => @categories, :incident_form => incident_form} %>
      <%= render :partial => 'subcategory_select', :locals => { :subcategories => @subcategories, :incident_form => incident_form } %>

   <% end %>
<% end %>

_outbreak_type_select

<% with_str = "'outbreak_type=' + value " %>
<% if @outbreak.id %>
<% with_str << "+ '&id=' + #{outbreak.id}" %>
<% end %>
<%= f.collection_select(:outbreak_type, @outbreak_types, :property_value, :property_value, {}, {:onchange => "#{remote_function(:url  => { :action => "update_select_menus"}, :with => with_str)}"}  ) %>

_category_select

调用update_select_menus后如何生成incident_form

<%= incident_form.collection_select( :category_id, @categories, :id, :name, {:prompt   => "Select a category"}, {:onchange => "#{remote_function(:url  => { :action => "update_subcategory"}, :with => "'category_id='+value")}"}) %>

RJS

   begin
    page.replace_html 'outbreak_transmission_div', :partial => 'outbreaks/transmission_mode_select', :locals => {:transmission_modes => @transmission_modes }
   rescue
    page.insert_html :bottom, 'ajax_error', '<p>Error :: transmission modes update select</p>'
    page.show 'ajax_error'
   end
   begin
    page.replace_html 'incident_category_select', :partial => 'outbreaks/category_select', :locals => { :categories => @categories }  
   rescue
    page.insert_html :bottom, 'ajax_error', '<p>Error :: incident category update select</p>'
    page.show 'ajax_error'
   end

根据http://www.treibstofff.de/2009/07/12/ruby-on-rails-23-nested-attributes-with-ajax-support/

找到解决方法

这可能应该在Outbreak helper中(在Outbreak controller atm中)

    def update_select_menus
      @outbreak_type = params[:outbreak_type].strip
      #next_child_index will only be used if 
      @next_child_index ? params[:next_child_index] : 0
      if params[:id]
        @outbreak = Outbreak.find(params[:id])
      else
        @outbreak = Outbreak.new
        @outbreak.risks.build
        @outbreak.incidents.build
        @outbreak.locations.build

      end

      if @outbreak_type == "FOODBORNE"
          ob_type_query = "OUTBREAKS:TRANSMISSION_MODE:" << @outbreak_type
          @transmission_modes = Property.find(:all, :conditions => {:field => ob_type_query})

          ob_type_query = "INVESTIGATIONS:CATEGORY:" << @outbreak_type

          @sample_types = Property.find(:all, :conditions => {:field => ob_type_query})
          @categories = Category.find(:all, :conditions => { :outbreak_type => "FOODBORNE"})
          @subcategories = Subcategory.find(:all, :conditions => { :category_id => @categories.first.id})
          @subtypes = Subtype.find(:all, :conditions => { :subcategory_id => @subcategories.first.id})


      elsif @outbreak_type == "NON-FOODBORNE"
          ob_type_query = "OUTBREAKS:TRANSMISSION_MODE:" << @outbreak_type
          @transmission_modes = Property.find(:all, :conditions => {:field => ob_type_query})

          ob_type_query = "INVESTIGATIONS:CATEGORY:" << @outbreak_type

          @sample_types = Property.find(:all, :conditions => {:field => ob_type_query})
          @categories = Category.find(:all, :conditions => { :outbreak_type => "NON-FOODBORNE"})
          @subcategories = Subcategory.find(:all, :conditions => { :category_id => @categories.first.id})
          @subtypes = Subtype.find(:all, :conditions => { :subcategory_id => @subcategories.first.id})
     end

     @pathogen_types = Property.find(:all, :conditions => {:field => "PATHOGENS:CATEGORY"})
     @outbreak_types = Property.find(:all, :conditions => {:field => "OUTBREAKS:OUTBREAK_TYPE"} )


     render :update do |page|
         page.replace 'outbreak_transmission_div', :partial => 'transmission_mode_select_update'
         page.replace 'incident_category_select', :partial => 'incident_category_select_update'
         page.replace 'incident_subcategory_select', :partial => 'incident_subcategory_select_update'
         page.replace 'incident_subtype_select', :partial => 'incident_subtype_select_update'
     end      

  end

在爆发视图中(虽然因为此部分与事件相关,所以它可能应该放在该视图中)

    <% ActionView::Helpers::FormBuilder.new(:outbreak, @outbreak, @template, {}, proc{}).fields_for :incidents,{:child_index => @next_child_index} do |this_form| %>
<div id="incident_category_select">
<%= render :partial => 'category_select', :locals => {:incident_form => this_form } %>
</div>
<% end %>

ActionView :: Helpers :: FormBuilder用于生成所需的fields_for表单 - 网站文章详细介绍了这一点。

结果索引由@next_child_index变量设置,该变量可以通过原始AJAX调用传递给控制器​​(例如@next_child_index = 1,然后生成的表单元素名称将爆发[incidents_attributes] [1 ] [category_id] ) - 我在这个例子中没有使用过这个,因为虽然将来我希望表单支持每个爆发的多个位置进行初始运行,但它只接受一个位置 - 事件每次爆发。

_category_select.erb partial(在爆发视图atm中)

<% with_str = "'category_id=' + value " %>
<% if @outbreak.id %>
<% with_str << "+ '&id=' + #{@outbreak.id}" %>
<% end %>
<%= incident_form.collection_select( :category_id, @categories, :id, :name, {:prompt   => "Select a category"}, {:onchange => "#{remote_function(:url  => { :action => "update_subcategory"}, :with => with_str)}"}) %>

with_str只是可选地传递Outbreak id(如果它存在于控制器中)以查找生成表单的Outbreak记录,如果不存在则构建新的Outbreak以及相关的嵌套属性(如事件和位置)。

必须更简洁的方法 - 尤其是FormHelper并通过带字符串的可选项传递Outbreak id。
