I hope I'm explaining this correctly. Be gentle. Noob here. :)
Ideas on how to solve this? Kind of a chicken or the egg scenario.
Check out this update function in my controller:
def update
@snowplow_registration = SnowplowRegistration.find(params[:id])
@customer = Customer.find(@snowplow_registration.customer)
SnowplowRegistration.transaction do
@snowplow_registration.update_attributes!(params[:snowplow_registration])
@customer.update_attributes!(params[:customer])
flash[:notice] = 'Snow Plow Registration was successfully
updated.'
redirect_to(@snowplow_registration)
end
rescue ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid => e
@customer.valid?
render :action => "edit"
end
When the transaction starts, if validation fails on the
@snowplow_registration, it doesn't check the validation on my @customer
for the fields that were updated. Validation for both works properly
when testing separate... but @customer returns to the edit page without
passing the changed (params[:customer]) because the failure in the
transaction happened before I can call
@customer.update_attributes!(params[:customer]). Is there a way to
update the model in memory before updating the database?
Thank you for looking.
