Today I tried to run through the examples in the "Hobo Book", using
Hobo 0.8.8.
I am stuck on page 57 of Chapter 4, where you try to create Many-to-
Many associations.
I even tried to copy-paste the fields and associations from the book
directly into recipe.rb, category.rb and category_assignment.rb
category_assignment.rb
----------------------
fields do
timestamps
end
belongs_to :category
belongs_to :recipe
category.rb
----------------------
fields do
name :string
timestamps
end
has_many :recipes, :through => :category_assignments
has_many :category_assignments, :dependent => :destroy
recipe.rb
----------------------
fields do
title :string
body :text
timestamps
end
has_many :categories, :through => :category_assignments, :accessible
=> true
has_many :category_assignments, :dependent => :destroy
belongs_to :country
---
Even if I rollback to step 1 of my migrations and do a new
hobo_migration I get the following schema:
create_table "categories", :force => true do |t|
t.string "name"
t.datetime "created_at"
t.datetime "updated_at"
end
create_table "category_assignments", :force => true do |t|
t.datetime "created_at"
t.datetime "updated_at"
t.integer "category_id"
t.integer "recipe_id"
end
create_table "recipes", :force => true do |t|
t.string "title"
t.text "body"
t.datetime "created_at"
t.datetime "updated_at"
t.integer "country_id"
end
---
Which look completely fine!
In the interface for New/Edit Recipe, I get a drop-down to select a
Category, but when I make a selection nothing happens.
When I make a save, it still says "No category assignments" and when I
go back to edit, I can see my selection wasn't saved.

If I look in the console log, I can see this:
Processing RecipesController#update (for 127.0.0.1 at 2009-09-14
14:37:50) [PUT]
Parameters: {"page_path"=>"recipes/edit",
"authenticity_token"=>"VJvWuMq34S5pxT4rs1eyRpO2DiI87bpSB0x3BcBxsNc=",
"id"=>"1-abe", "recipe"=>{"body"=>"Hello", "title"=>"Abe",
"country_id"=>"1", "categories"=>[""]}}
--
So obviously, the categories parameter remains empty on submit.
--
Looking in the HTML source code:
<div class="input select-many categories-tag array recipe-categories"
name="recipe[categories]">
<div class="item-proto" style="display: none;">
<div class="item proto-item">
<span/>
<input class="proto-hidden" type="hidden" name="recipe[categories][]"/
>
<input class="remove-item proto-remove-button" type="button"
value="Remove"/>
</div>
</div>
<div class="items"> </div>
<select>
<option value="">Add Category</option>
<option value="@1">sour</option>
</select>
</div>
...
So why does the select being generated have no name?
Has anyone out there really made it through this step?
