Instance Method Details

#find_on_create ⇒ Object

When find_on_create is specified for a controller, attempts to create new records will first check to see if an identical record already exists. If such a record is found, it is returned and the create is never attempted.

This is useful for the management of administrative records like memberships or friendships, where the user may attempt to create a new record using some unique identifier like an email address. For such a resource, a pre-existing record should not be considered a failure, as would otherwise be triggered by uniqueness checks on the model.

def find_on_create
  write_inheritable_attribute :find_on_create, true
end

#inline_create ⇒ Object

When inline_create is specified for a controller, the index page will have the ability to directly create new resources, just as the new page normally can.

To use inline_create, refactor the relevant contents of your new view into a partial and render it in an appropriate place within the index view.

A successful create will redirect to the show action for the new record, and a failed create will re-render the index action with a populated form, in the same way the new action would normally be rendered in the event of a failed create.
