I have a blog application where I would like to display on the post view a 
list of keyword categories and associated keyword types.

#views/post.html.erb

.
.
.
<% @post.keywords.group_by(&:keyword_category_id).each do |category, type| 
%>
    <li><%= category %></li>
    <% type.each do |type| %>
        <%= type.keyword_type_id %>
    <% end %>
<% end %>
.
.
.


The keyword categories and keyword types are in separate models.  The 
association for the models are:

#keyword_category.rb
 has_many :keyword_types
 
#keyword_type.rb
    belongs_to :keyword_category
    
#post.rb

    has_many :keywords
    has_many :keyword_types, through: :keywords
    has_many :keyword_categories, through: :keywords
    
I am using a join table called 'keywords', for keeping track of the keyword 
categories and keyword types for a post.

The keywords table has the following fields.
post_id
keyword_category_id
keyword_type_id



The issue I am having is the view is displaying the ids and I can't figure 
out how to do something like category.keyword_category.name?  Any ideas on 
what I am doing wrong?  Thanks in advance for your help.
