Hi all, I have the following scenario: I scaffolded a resource R and in the generated create method I have the code that responds to html and xml. Basically by POSTing to the URI I can create entities either via forms or via XML (where basically the tags have the same names of the underlying model's fields)
The create method's body does this: @r = R.new(params[:r]), and it works because Rails magically populates the params hash with the data coming from the request (i.e., from the html form's field or from the XML content) Now the question is: what if I want to use another format to communicate this data? In particular, what if I want to use an ATOM entry to tell the web app what data I want to put into the newly created resource of type R? In this case I would need to transfer the information contained in my ATOM entry XML to the params has so that everything will work correctly. What's the best way to achieve this? Thanks and sorry if this is basic stuff.
