I have some troubles to make an association between 2 tables.
I have Users who can write Posts
Here is my migration file :
class LinkUsersAndPosts < ActiveRecord::Migration
def change
add_column :posts, :user_id, :integer
add_index :posts, :user_id
end
end
My models :
class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
attr_accessible :content, :title
belongs_to :user
end
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
attr_accessible :email, :login, :password, :password_confirmation, :rights
has_many :posts
end
My controller :
class PostsController < ApplicationController
respond_to :json
def index
@posts = Post.includes(:user).all
respond_with @posts
end
def create
@post = Post.new(params[:post])
@post.user = current_user
if @post.save
render json: @post, status: :created, location: @post
else
render json: @post.errors, status: :unprocessable_entity
end
end
end
The posts is correctly created, the user_id is set all is fine.
The problem is when i want to retrieve the list of posts including user, the list of posts is retrieve, but i havn't any data on the user except his id.
