Solved this:
I have a following situation:
I have Graph and Node model.
While on graph/show.html.erb I make an ajax post with an id of a Node:
var val = document.getElementById('nodeName').value;
if(val){
$.post("/nodes/this_node/", {id:val});
console.log(val);
}
How do I get that Node to render on the same page in, for example, ?
EDIT::
I have a custom POST action in node_controller :
def this_node
#node = Node.find(idd)
respond_to do |format|
format.js
end
end
I had to add app/views/nodes/this_node.js.erb with:
$("#node_div").html('<%= escape_javascript(render :partial => "node_content", :locals => { :node => #node}) %>');
and a partial in views/nodes/_node_content.html.erb
<%= #node.content %>
All works.
EDIT:
Actually fixed it (above code works)

I got this menu on my website
%button.dropdown-button
.current-user{onclick:'showMenu()'}
%img.current-user-image{src:current_user.picture_url}
= current_user
%i.fa.fa-bars{'aria-hidden':true}
.dropdown-content
.menu-option{onclick:'showFilters()'}
Filter Transactions
%i.fa.fa-paper-plane{'aria-hidden':true}
.transaction-filters
.filter-option
My Transactions
%i.fa.fa-square-o
%a{href:'#'}
.menu-option
Balance History
%i.fa.fa-history{'aria-hidden':true}
%a{href:destroy_user_session_path}
.menu-option
Sign Out
%i.fa.fa-sign-out{'aria-hidden':true}
And I got this timeline with transactions
.timeline-container
- #transactions.each do |transaction|
.transaction-container
.transaction-header-container
.transaction-kudos-container
= "+#{transaction.amount}"
%span.currency
₭
.transaction-avatar-container
%div
= image_tag transaction.receiver_image, class:'avatar'
.transaction-body-container
.transaction-content
%span
= "#{transaction.sender.name}:"
%span.highlighted
= "+#{transaction.amount} ₭"
%span
to
%span.highlighted
= transaction.receiver_name_feed
%span
for
%span.highlighted
= transaction.activity_name_feed
%div
-#%button#like-button
-# Like
%span.post-time-stamp
= "#{distance_of_time_in_words(DateTime.now, transaction.created_at)} ago"
= paginate #transactions
They are both rendered on my index.html.haml
So when I click the div .filter-option.sent I want to change the code change from
- #transactions.each do |transaction|
to
- #all_transactions.each do |transaction|
to filter out the transactions of the current user without reloading the page.
These variables are defined in my controller
#transactions = Transaction.order('created_at desc').page(params[:page]).per(20)
#all_transactions = Transaction.all_for_user(current_user)
With in my model the method all_for_user
def self.all_for_user(user)
Transaction.where(sender: user).or(Transaction.where(receiver: user)).order('created_at desc').page.per(20)
end
I tried a lot of things with AJAX but nothing seems to please me. Somebody can help me?
So if you'd like to replace that #transactions list with AJAX you will need to do a few things..
1) Move the #transactions block into a partial that takes a local variable.
#transactions-wrapper
= render partial: 'transactions/list', locals: {transactions: #transactions}
2) Create a link that submits to a route, that hits a controller action as #js ('data-remote': true ) ( or write a javascript function that triggers $.ajax request: https://www.w3schools.com/jquery/ajax_ajax.asp
%a.transaction-filter{href: "/transactions/#{transaction_type}", 'data-remote': true}
or ex..
%a.study{href: "/transactions/recent", 'data-remote': true}
%a.study{href: "/transactions/past", 'data-remote': true}
3) define the route
get '/transactions/:type' => 'transactions#filter'
4) re-assign the variable based on the filter, and re-render that partial with the new data in a filter.js.erb file thats in the view directory -> app/views/transactions
def filter
#filtered_transactions = Transactions.where(type: params[:type] ).order('created_at DESC')
respond_to do |format|
format.html
format.js { render :action => 'filter.js.erb', :layout => false}
end
end
$("#transactions-wrapper").html("<%= j render(:partial => 'transactions/list'', :locals => { transactions: #filtered_transactions } ) %>");
alert('Transactions have been filtered, yo')
Let me know if that makes sense! Except please don't actually javascript alert at the end ;)
I have trying to follow this question but I am stuck.
In my controller I have:
def index
if params[:sort] == 'stars'
#projects = [Project.first]
else
#projects = Project.all
end
respond_to do |format|
format.html
format.js { render 'populate_projects', :formats => [:js] }
end
end
in routes:
get '/inspire/:sort' => 'projects#index'
in view:
= collection_select :project, :id, Project.all, :id, :name, {}, {:onchange => '$.get("/inspire/stars")'}
%div#normal
= render 'projects_list'
%div#stars{ style: 'display: none' }
my _projects_list.html.haml has:
%div
- #projects.each do |project|
%div
%p
#more code...
and finally in populate_projects.js.haml:
:plain
$("#stars").html("#{escape_javascript render(partial: 'projects/projects_list')}");
$("#normal").hide();
$("#stars").show();
Probably the program doesn't make sense as I am testing if ajax call is working. However, what should happen is when I change the state of dropdown an ajax call must be made which renders 'propulate.js.haml' and list of projects must change from all to just first, but is not. In my terminal I can see that call is being made but 'populate.js.haml' is never rendered. Can someone please help!
Make sure your Ajax call requests the JS format:
= collection_select :project, :id, Project.all, :id, :name, {}, {:onchange => '$.get("/inspire/stars.js")'}
If you want to make an ajax call you need to include:
"data-remote" => true

I currently have a comment model that posts under a micropost and both are displayed on the same page. The issue is that both are displayed on the same page and both are paginated and I am trying to go for the facebook approach to microposting. Here is the issue below:
The links for both pagination turns into this href="/users/2?page=2" rather than href="/users/2/micropost?page=2" or href="/users/2/comment?page=2". I am unsure how to go about solving this problem. Here are some of my code. All suggestions are much appreciated!
Micropost Render HTML
<table class="microposts">
<% if microposts.any? %>
<%= render microposts %>
<%= will_paginate microposts, :page_links => false %>
<% else %>
<div class="EmptyContainer"><span class='Empty'>Add a thread!</span></div>
<% end %>
</table>
Comment Section HTML
<div id='CommentContainer-<%= micropost.id%>' class='CommentContainer Condensed2'>
<div class='Comment'>
<%= render :partial => "comments/form", :locals => { :micropost => micropost } %>
</div>
<div id='comments'>
<% comments = micropost.comments.paginate(:per_page => 5, :page => params[:page]) %>
<%= render comments %>
<%= will_paginate comments, :class =>"pagination" %>
</div>
</div>
User Controller for the Show Page
def show
#user = User.find(params[:id])
#comment = Comment.find(params[:id])
#micropost = Micropost.new
#comment = Comment.new
#comment = #micropost.comments.build(params[:comment])
#comments = #micropost.comments.paginate(:page => params[:page], :per_page => 5)
#microposts = #user.microposts.order('created_at DESC').paginate(:per_page => 10, :page => params[:page])
respond_to do |format|
format.html
format.js
end
end
Problem lies within will_paginate way of creating urls for each page (it doesn't have anything to do with jQuery).
By design, will_paginate try its best to guess what's the base url for the page user is on (internally it's using controller/action to do that). That base url is then combined with any extra params passed to will_paginate helper using :params and succesive page numbers.
For now (will_paginate 3.0.3), in order to overwrite this default behavior, you need to write your custom LinkRenderer class. Below there's example of such class - it makes use of new, extra option :base_link_url that can be passed to will_paginate view helper. Passed string is then used as a base when creating pagination links. If :base_link_url option is not passed, it will fallback to default behavior.
Put following class somewhere rails can find it on load (/lib for example, provided you've added /lib to your autoload paths in application.rb):
# custom_link_renderer.rb
class CustomLinkRenderer < WillPaginate::ActionView::LinkRenderer
def prepare(collection, options, template)
#base_link_url = options.delete :base_link_url
#base_link_url_has_qs = #base_link_url.index('?') != nil if #base_link_url
super
end
protected
def url(page)
if #base_link_url.blank?
super
else
#base_url_params ||= begin
merge_optional_params(default_url_params)
end
url_params = #base_url_params.dup
add_current_page_param(url_params, page)
query_s = []
url_params.each_pair {|key,val| query_s.push("#{key}=#{val}")}
if query_s.size > 0
#base_link_url+(#base_link_url_has_qs ? '&' : '?')+query_s.join('&')
else
#base_link_url
end
end
end
end
Usage:
# in your view
will_paginate collection, :renderer => CustomLinkRenderer, :base_link_url => '/anything/you/want'
And now back to your case. By this time you probably see the solution - you can have two will_paginate widgets on one page with different base urls by passing different :base_link_url options for those two.
It seems that the method render :update is not supported anymore in Rails 3.1, now I'm checking what the best way is to change this code :
def create
#address = #current_user.addresses.build(params[:address])
#address.save!
respond_to do |accepts|
accepts.html {
flash[:notice] = t(:"notices.address.created")
redirect_to :back
}
accepts.js {
flash[:notice] = t(:"notices.address.created")
render :update do |page|
page.redirect_to(:back)
end
}
end
end
I just need to do a redirect :back when the action is succesful, but for the moment he just try to render the update partial.
render :js => "window.location = #{escape_javascript(request.env['HTTP_REFERER'])}"
I'm using the jQuery autocomplete plugin, and I want to customize this event:
select: function(event, ui) {
$('.topic_field').val(ui.item.topic.name);
return false;
Essentially, it triggers callbacks when an element from the dropdown list is selected. As of now, it only adds the selected element to the text field. I want both the field to be populated and for my application to send a POST request to the video update controller action, so that the user does not need to explicitly press the button. How can I do this?
UPDATE:
Here is the form in the show view of the video controller:
<%= form_for #video, :url => {:action => "update"}, :remote => true do |f| %>
<div class="field">
<%= f.text_field :topic_names, :class => "topic_field" %>
</div>
<%= f.submit "Add Topic" %>
<% end %>
Here is my jQuery code:
var url = $('.edit_video').attr('action');
var val = ui.item.topic.name;
$.post(url, {data:val});
This is in my routes.rb:
resources :videos
resources :video_votes
resources :users
resources :profiles
resources :genres
resources :topics
resources :topicables
resource :session
Here's my update action:
def update
#video = current_user.videos.find(params[:id])
respond_to do |format|
if #video.update_attributes(params[:video])
format.html { redirect_to(#video) }
format.js
else
format.html { render :action => "edit" }
end
end
end
Check out the jQuery.post documentation on how to post the data from your select box to the relevant controller action.
I'm not familiar with the autocomplete plugin, but I presume it follows an onChange event on your select box. When the user has made a selection, you should execute the following (untested):
var url = $('myForm').attr('action');
var val = $('mySelectBox').val();
$.post(url, {data:val})
In your controller, you could access this using:
params[:data]
which would return the value of your select box. You can then use this as normal in your controller code.
use the jquery ajax function to fetch the data from your action url ("/topics/list") or something
$.post('video/update',
data: {yourdata},
function(data) {
//callback function
}
);
in your video#update be sure to return something for your js request:
def update
blah
respond_to do |format|
format.js { return somethinghere }
end
end
