Hi All!
It has been a while since I did this (and hobo has changed significantly
in the interim), so my memory is fading (happens when you reach 74 ;-) ).
I have a model *Attachments* that belongs to model *Email* such that:
model *Attachments*:
fields do
filename : string;
contents : binary;
datatype : string;
end
belongs_to :email
controller *Attachment*:
auto_actions_for :email, [ :index, :new, :create ]
def index_for_email
* * *
hobo_index_for_email *#????????? Is this right?*
end
# etc. for new, create
model *Email*:
has_many :attachments, :accessible=>true, :dependent => :destroy
children :attachments *# <<< D**oesn't seem to **change anything
whether present or not*
The new and edit actions for *Email* show a list of *Attachments* as
expected (a series of text and textarea fields), but I really want to
change the underlying dryml so that it uses
<input ... type="file">
(the results of which will populate the fields of the attachment record)
instead of the series of input fields for filename, content and datatype.
Here is where my memory fails me. What dryml tags (auto generated?)
apply to the index_for_email, new_for_email, create_for_email methods?
When are these methods called (so far my log code doesn't show any sign
of invocation)? I have looked through all of the hobo documentation
without finding the answers.
I can do the upload using my own file input tags from the *Attachment*
pages themselves, but I don't want those exposed to the users (for test
purposes I must manually enter the index of the associated email). All
of the rest of the app works fine using the data from the *Attachment*
pages. i.e., emails are sent with the specified attachments and
received by the recipients with valid files. All I need is the
appropriate user interface to finish this part of the project.
I would really like the list shown by index to be series of attachment
file names with the ability to edit and a "+" button to add or a "-"
button to delete. The file name field would use html <input ...
type="file"...>
Thanks,
Don Ziesig
