Re: Override redirect after create

[Dennis Bulgatz]

Hi Sergio,

The AS create actions was using create_respond_to_js so the redirect to an HTML 
page failed..

So I added to the controller:  conf.create.link.page = true

Then the redirect to an HTML page works.

Thanks!

Dennis

Hi Dennis

If you are using the AS create action, it uses create_respond_to_html to
redirect to the listing.

    def create_respond_to_html
      if successful?
        flash[:info] = as_(:created_model, :model =>
ERB::Util.h(@record.to_label))
        if (action = active_scaffold_config.create.action_after_create)
          redirect_to params_for(:action => action, :id => @record.to_param)
        elsif params[:dont_close]
          redirect_to params_for(:action => 'new')
        else
          return_to_main
        end
      elsif active_scaffold_config.actions.include?(:list) &&
active_scaffold_config.list.always_show_create
        list
      else
        render(:action => 'create')
      end
    end


You can override it to do a different redirect:

def create_respond_to_html
  if successful?
    redirect_to ...
  else
    super
  end
end

You can redirect to index action with the id of the created record with
tdns_path(id: @record), or tdns_path(id: tdn.id) if you are using the
overrided create action you posted here. It would use a url like /tdns?id=xxx.
Also, you could add a route to index action with id, so the url would be /
tdns/xxx/list

get '/:controller/:id/list', :action => :index

If you want to use search, I don't see what's wrong with your url, as long as
you have field_search enabled, with tdn_number column.
