I want to do 

@ad = Ad.attributes(params[:ad])
maybe Im wrong, but as I understood about polymorphic in rails, this would thow an error say that  ad_real_estate_details does not exist

as they explained here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3969025/accepts-nested-attributes-for-with-belongs-to-polymorphic

As I've said, don't use accepts_nested_attributes_for.  Create a getter and setter method for each kind of details that you want.

If you don't want to do that, create an attr_accessor for the details, and create the detail record in a callback.

Hi,

thanks for answer. My pb with polymorphic is that I would have to create first in db a ligne for ad_real_estate_details and then create my ad, what is non sense for me, in terms of logic.

and it might brings some pb as I read there http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3969025/accepts-nested-attributes-for-with-belongs-to-polymorphic

lets have another example which is almost the same

image we have Student (age, classe, ...)  and Teacher (subject_taught) classes that inherit from User classes. I would be non sense to create first a Teacher entity, and then to link it to User, no ?

Why are you thinking of creating the details first?  Why not create the ad first, then add the details later? Sometimes, accepts_nested_attributes_for is not always the answer for creating association records.  Try to look into virtual attributes

and callbacks.

hi,

i' trying to re-create my project from php to rails. But now Im faced with a pb to witch I had solution with php, but I cant figure how to make it work with rails

here my tables

ads

  id

  category_id

  title

  text

ad_real_estate_details

  id

  ad_id

  nb_room

  floor

ad_car_details

  id

  ad_id

  color

  brand

here what I succeed to do

class Ad < ActiveRecord::Base

  attr_accessible :category_id :title, :text, :ad_real_estate_details

  has_one :ad_real_estate_details

  accepts_nested_attributes_for :ad_real_estate_details, allow_destroy: true

end

class AdRealEstateDetail < ActiveRecord::Base

  belongs_to :ad

  validates :ad_id, presence: true

end

but this only work for other category than real_estate

so I was thinking of polymorphism, but polymorphism mean I should add a reference in my "ad" table to the detail tables, and remove annonce_id from detail tables , what I thing is non-sense as some ads can have no details, but details are non-sense without an ad.

i think you have it right when you mentioned using polymorphic associations.  it is fine to leave the polymorphic association

nil if the ad has no details if that's what you're worried about.

 

I was also thinking of a class AdDetails, and  AdRealEstateDetail would inherite from it, but this is not possible with rails as all subclasses will share the same table

does anyone have a solution for this kind of problem ?

thanks
