I have a _user.html.erb partial that I am rendering on my Users#Index action with a form embedded to allow following and unfollowing of each user. I also have accompanying create.js.erb and destroy.js.erb files in my relationships controller to handle the AJAX. Right now I have to refresh the page in order to see the changes made by clicking the "follow/unfollow" button next to a users name except the first user's record behaves correctly.
_user.html.erb
<div id ="follow_form">
<% if current_user.following?(user) %>
<%= form_for(current_user.relationships.find_by(followed_id: user.id),
html: { method: :delete },
remote: true) do |f| %>
<%= f.submit "Unfollow", class: "btn btn-large" %>
<% end %>
<% else %>
<%= form_for(current_user.relationships.build(followed_id: user.id),
remote: true) do |f| %>
<div><%= f.hidden_field :followed_id %></div>
<%= f.submit "Follow", class: "btn btn-large btn-primary" %>
<% end %>
<% end %>
create.js.erb
$("#follow_form").html("<%= escape_javascript(render('users/unfollow')) %>")
$("#followers").html('<%= #user.followers.count %>')
destroy.js.erb
$("#follow_form").html("<%= escape_javascript(render('users/follow')) %>")
$("#followers").html('<%= #user.followers.count %>')
here is a link to my users_controller.rb https://gist.github.com/anonymous/9608208 and my relationships_controller.rb https://gist.github.com/anonymous/9608284
I've tried changing the div to something dynamic like
<div id ="follow_form_<%= user.id %>">
But when I make the same change to the javascript like this
$("#follow_form_<%= user.id %>").find.html("<%= escape_javascript(render('users/unfollow')) %>")
it doesn't seem to work.
I've been trying to figure out how to pass the user.id attribute into the javascript but am falling flat.
It turns out the problem was in my _follow_form.html.erb partial.
I had to change
<div id="follow_form">
to
<div id="follow_form_<%= #user.id %>">
I thought I only needed to make the change in the _user.html.erb partial but I was wrong. My current user partial uses the same div id to contain the button in the Users#Index view
<div id ="follow_form_<%= user.id %>">

I have a search form on my page with two buttons - "news" and "events".
I can get the Rails search function to work correctly but I don't want a search form, I want the user to press one of the two buttons and the search to be executed.
I figure this probably has to be done with JQuery so when a button is clicked, either "news" or "events" are added to the rails input form and it submits the form. Please appreciate where I'm going wrong here as the form won't submit and the search won't execute.
Application.js
$(document).on('ready page:load', function () {
$(".news-button").click(function(){
$("#search").val("news");
$("#news-search").submit();
});
$(".events-button").click(function(){
$("#search").val("event");
$("#news-search").submit();
});
});
Index.html.erb
<%= form_tag news_index_path, :method => 'get', :id => "news_search" do %>
<p>
<%= text_field_tag :search, params[:search] %>
<%= submit_tag "Search", :name => nil %>
</p>
<% end %>
<div class="col-sm-3 sort-buttons">
<%= link_to "News", "", class: "btn btn-standard news-button" %>
<%= link_to "Events", "", class: "btn btn-standard events-button" %>
</div>
<div class="row">
<% #news.each do |n| %>
<div class="col-sm-4">
<div class="news-wrap">
<%= image_tag("#{n.image}", class: "img-responsive", alt: "Event/News Postings") %>
</div>
</div>
<% end %>
</div>
News.rb
class News < ApplicationRecord
if Rails.env.development?
def self.search(search)
if search
where('category LIKE ?', "%#{search}%")
else
scoped
end
end
end
end
News Controller:
def index
if params[:search]
#news = News.search(params[:search]).page(params[:page]).per_page(10)
else
#news = News.all.page(params[:page]).per_page(10)
end
end
A bit of a confusing title.
I am trying to implement a bit of a reddit like comment system. So that you can view a Post and add a Comment to it which is polymorphic. Or, comment on another Comment.
My view looks like so:
<h2>Post:</h2>
<div class="well">
<p>
<strong>Title:</strong>
<%= #post.title %>
</p>
<% if #post.description %>
<p>
<strong>Description:</strong>
<%= #post.description %>
</p>
<% end %>
</div>
<% if current_user %>
<%= render "shared/comment_form" %>
<% else %>
<p>Log in to add comments</p>
<% end %>
<% if #post.comments.any? %>
<%= render "shared/comment_list" %> # Another comment_form inside of this partial
<% else %>
<p>No comments yet</p>
<% end %>
Inside of comment_list is another rendering of comment_form so that you can comment on a comment:
<h2>Comments</h2>
<ul>
<% #post.comments.each do |co| %>
<li><%= co.body %></li>
<%= render "shared/comment_form" if current_user %>
<% end %>
</ul>
Finally, my comment form itself:
<div id="comment-form" class="form-group">
<%= form_for #comment, remote: true, url: post_comments_path(#post) do |f| %>
<%= f.text_area :body, required: true, rows: 5, class: "form-control" %>
<%= f.hidden_field :commentable_id, :value => #post.id %>
<%= f.hidden_field :commentable_type, :value => #post.class.name %>
<%= f.hidden_field :user_id, :value => current_user.id %>
<br>
<%= f.submit class: "btn btn-primary" %>
<% end %>
</div>
<span id="add-comment">Add a comment</span>
And the Jquery code that acts on the comment_form:
$(document).on('turbolinks:load', function() {
$("#comment-form").hide();
$('#add-comment').click( function() {
$("#comment-form").fadeToggle("fast");
($("#add-comment").text() === "Cancel") ? $("#add-comment").text("Add comment") : $("#add-comment").text("Hide");
});
});
My question is:
How could I separate these divs so that Jquery doesn't fire on all instances of id="comment-form? I would like to pass in an erb tag like <%= #post.class.name %><%= #post.id %>, but again, keep the variable universal. Then, how could I implement that unique id name in my JQuery code.
Edit: I got one part of my question solved. I left the rest of what I wasn't able to do up for everyone to see.
You could use prev() like this:
$(document).ready(function() {
$('.comment-form').hide();
$('.add-comment').click( function(event) {
// Store the button which has just been clicked on a variable
var eventTarget = $(event.target);
// Find the previous element with the #comment-form and id and toggle it
eventTarget.prev('.comment-form').fadeToggle('fast');
// Use the eventTarget Again
(eventTarget.text() === 'Cancel') ? eventTarget.text('Add comment') : eventTarget.text('Cancel');
});
});

Hi guys I really need help here.
I'm making a todo app and displaying each task through an iteration. Next to each task I have a pencil glyphicon.
When I click on it, I want there to be a popover containing an edit form and edit the task on the spot. I'm having a ton of troubling rendering that form.
***** UPDATE *****
Clark helped me get the popover to work. But The form inside the popover is acting like a link instead of a form so I can't type in the text area.
This is my index.html.erb
<div id='user_tasks'>
<% #tasks.each do |task| %>
<ul>
<li>
<%= task.description %>
<%= link_to edit_task_path(task), :rel => 'popover', method: 'get', remote: 'true' do %>
<span class = 'edit_task_<%=task.id%> glyphicon glyphicon-pencil'> </span>
<% end %>
</li>
</ul>
<% end %>
</div>
This is the edit.js.erb
$(function(){
$('.edit_task_<%=#task.id%>').popover({
html: true,
title: 'edit',
content: <%= escape_javascript render 'edit_form', task:#task %>
}).popover('show'); });
and my controllers look like this:
def index
#new_task= Task.new
#tasks= Task.all
end
def create
#new_task= Task.new(task_params)
#task.save
redirect_to :back
end
def edit
#task= Task.find(params[:id])
end
_edit_form.html.erb looks like this: This isn't the edit form that I plan to use. Its just a copy of the create task form. I plan to fix it once I get the popover working.
<%= form_for task, :html=>{:class=> 'form-inline'} do |f| %>
<div class='form-group'>
<%= f.text_field :description, placeholder: 'create a task' %>
<%= button_tag(type:'submit', class:"btn btn-default btn-xs") do %>
<span class='glyphicon glyphicon-plus'></span>
<% end %>
</div>
<% end %>
I'm trying to show a list of "Interests" that users can "follow" by clicking on a button associated with the Interest's image. Upon clicking the button to follow an Interest, the Interest (and it's corresponding image) should disappear from the list.
I'm using a hide function in a create.js.erb file called upon by a Relationship controller when the follow button is clicked, but the function will only hide the first Interest in the series of Interests--NOT the Interest the user clicked on that needs to disappear. So there has to be a better way to set this up, but I cannot, for the life of me, figure it out. Here's my current setup:
My Controller
class StaticPagesController < ApplicationController
def home
#user = current_user
#city = request.location.city
#interests = Interest.all
end
The home page
<%= render #interests %>
The partial
<div id="follow_form">
<div class="four columns portfolio-item interests">
<div class="our-work">
<a class="img-overlay">
<%= image_tag interest.image_path %>
<div class="img-overlay-div">
<h4><%= interest.name %></h4>
</br>
<h5>Placeholder
</br>
<%= interest.desc %></h5>
<%= form_for(current_user.relationships.build(followed_id:
interest.id), remote: true) do |f| %>
<div><%= f.hidden_field :followed_id %></div>
<%= f.submit "I'm interested", class: "b-black" %>
<% end %>
</div>
</a>
<h3><%= interest.name %><span>features info</span></h3>
</div>
</div>
</div>
And the create.js.erb that's called upon by a Relationships controller when you click the button:
$("#follow_form").hide();
UPDATE
Here is the Relationships controller for additional clarification
def create
#interest = Interest.find(params[:relationship][:followed_id])
current_user.follow!(#interest)
respond_to do |format|
format.html { redirect_to(root_url) }
format.js
end
end
You need to provide something to differentiate the different "follow_forms" that you have on the same page. Otherwise, jQuery will just select the first element and only remove that one.
One idea of how to do this would be to append the "interest.id" to the end of the follow_form id
Update your partial to be like this (assuming your partial is called and located in /app/views/interests/_follow_form.html.erb:
<div id="follow_form<%="#{interest.id} %>">
<div class="four columns portfolio-item interests">
<div class="our-work">
<a class="img-overlay">
<%= image_tag interest.image_path %>
<div class="img-overlay-div">
<h4><%= interest.name %></h4>
</br>
<h5>Placeholder
</br>
<%= interest.desc %></h5>
<%= form_for(current_user.relationships.build(followed_id:
interest.id), remote: true) do |f| %>
<div><%= f.hidden_field :followed_id %></div>
<%= f.submit "I'm interested", class: "b-black" %>
<% end %>
</div>
</a>
<h3><%= interest.name %><span>features info</span></h3>
</div>
</div>
</div>
This way each follow_form will have a unique ID attached to it. Then you can loop through your interests and call a partial on each one like this:
home page:
<% #interests.each do |interest| %>
<%= render 'interests/follow_form', :interest => interest %>
<% end %>
create.js.erb
$("#follow_form_<%= "#{#interest.id}" %>").hide())
Your controller action can stay the same.
The intended URL is
"versions/compare/id1/id2"
Obviously, this doesn't work, but shows the intention
<%= form_tag("/versions/compare/", :method => "get") do %>
<% versions.each do |v| %>
<% v.id == #version.id ? current_class = " current" : "" %>
<li class="version-list <%= current_class %>">
<%= check_box_tag(:compare_version, v.id) %>
<%= link_to v.user.name, version_path(v) %>,
</li>
<% end %>
<%= submit_tag("Compare") %>
<% end #form tag
%>
The code above produces http://localhost:3000/versions/compare/?utf8=%E2%9C%93&compare_version=13&compare_version=12&commit=Compare
Is there a way to modify the form (+ JS?) so that it gets the desired URL?
"versions/compare/id1/id2"
you need to understand how form_tag work, it can not change the url after rendering the document.
If you want to change the url, use jquery to change it.
Or, just submit the form into some other url like
<%= form_tag("/comparing_version")
and then, in the controller, after processing everything, you redirect user to
"versions/compare/id1/id2"
