Voting History Difficulty

[blansett]

After following along through page 218, the wheels seem to have fallen off. I attempted to "reload a story page" as was suggested on pg. 218 and received this message:

NoMethodError in Story#show
Showing app/views/story/_vote.rhtml where line #1 raised:

undefined method `created_at' for #<Vote:0x4605e74>

Extracted source (around line #1):

1: <li><%= vote.created_at.to_formatted_s(:short) %></li>
2:

Not understanding an awful lot about what I'm doing, I went back to look at the "show.rhtml" file. I notice a difference in what is presented in the book and what is located in the code archives I downloaded. The book file looks like this:

<h2>
<span id="vote_score">
Score: <%= @story.votes_count %>
</span>
<%= @story.name %>
</h2>
<ul id="vote_history">
<% if @story.votes.size.zero? %>
<em>No shoves yet!</em>
<% else %>
<%= render :partial => 'vote',
:collection => @story.votes %>
<% end %>
</ul>
<p>
<%= link_to @story.link, @story.link %>
</p>
<div id="vote_link">
<%= link_to_remote 'shove it',
{ :url => { :action => 'vote', :id => @story } },
{ :href => url_for(:action => 'vote', :id => @story) } %>
</div>

and the archive file looks like this:

<h2>
<span id="vote_score">
Score: <%= @story.votes_count %>
</span>
<%= @story.name %>
</h2>

Now, I realize that's not much of a difference, but my not knowing which is correct has stopped me in my tracks.

Any suggestions on how I can fix this difficulty and continue moving ahead?

Thanks,

undefined method `created_at' for #<Vote:0x4605e74>

The totality of your current error is that your Vote model needs a "created_at column ... perhaps of type datetime or timedate or whatever. Remember to migrate it after you make it.

That instruction appears to have been overlooked in the book (I assume it would be on pages 217-18, or somewhere thereabouts). Being a total newbie, would you care to share with me how I might accomplish that?

Thanks,

I don't have the book, but I'm betting it is in there and you missed it ... super easy to do. Or perhaps this is another one for the errata.

The instruction would be when you created that model or in a migration. I'm imagining ...

ruby script/generate scaffold_resource vote story_id:integer created_at:timedate

I'm pretty darned sure I didn't miss anything. Without the book, I think you may not be the one to be providing assistance. Please, don't get me wrong, I appreciate all that you've done.

The saga continues. In my wisdom (LOL) I went in and took a look at the database structure. There was a column, under votes, labeled "create_at" but not "created_at." Not knowing as much about MySQL as I do Ruby, I deleted the column and attempted to re-insert it. Well, that apparently ain't gonna happen. So, I've made my problem worse, instead of better.

I guess, from this point on, the book becomes a nice little paperweight.

If the code archive or something in the book tells you to make a migration or generate a model with a column called "create_at", that probably needs to be changed or added to the errata. "created_at" is the field that automatically gets set when you create a model.

Assuming the book has been using migrations to make tables, "create_at" can be found and changed in a file like db/migrate/003_some_migration

From there you can:
rake db:migrate VERSION=2 (one version less than the number on the file you changed)
rake db:migrate

I really appreciate your "hand-holding" with all of this.

Your suggestion fixed that problem. However, in the process of raking and migrating I appear to have upset another applecart. I am now getting this error message:

Again, I really don't know what I'm looking for, so I'm not able to find where the problem exists. I wonder if Patrick Lenz is following along with this back and forth you and I are having.

Well, any suggestions from this point forward? (I mean other than you telling this old man to forget trying to learn Ruby. :blush: )

[samsm]

Rails is thinking that {:permalink=>nil} is the issue.

Is @story.permalink supposed to be nil?

Also, the errata may be worth a look.

In answer to your question: I don't know!

The sad thing is all of this worked properly up to the point of my initial post in this thread. I think I must've had a typo (create, instead of created) and everything has snowballed downhill from there.

I've looked at the errata - heck, I even added to the errata. I'm just about to scrap the whole thing and start fresh. (Man, I can't even believe I said that.)

Thanks for sticking with me.

[samsm]

The errata mentions a modification of a migration to create a permalink column.

Is that relevant to the portion of the book you are on? If so, have you tried that?

The errata mentions a modification of a migration to create a permalink column.

Is that relevant to the portion of the book you are on? If so, have you tried that?

I'll have to let you know in a couple of days. I'm away from the office for the holiday.

Thanks, again, and I'll be back!
