Hello,
I need to change/adapt of the date and float numbers the user enters:
dd/mm/yyyy I have to change into yyyy-mm-dd
and numbers, replace the , with the .
1245,85 => 1245.85
I thought the best place was using the before_validation() but here the
objects come with standard Rails formats, and the date is wrong, and the
numbers are also wrong.
Now I'm doing all the stuff in the Controller:
def update
@transaction=Transaction.find(params[:id])
if @transaction.update_attributes(params[:transaction])
@transaction.data=convert_european_date(@transaction.data.to_s)
@transaction.amount = params[:transaction][:amount].to_s.gsub(',',
'.').to_f
end
...
But this is a pain If I have to duplicate code for new and update
controllers method.
So I tried to move the code into the model before_validation but there
the self.data and self.amount are wrong, as Rails adapt them to what
they think it's the standard way ...
In the controller I can get the fresh value from params, but in the
model it doesn't exist ...
what's the best solution to my problem ?
thanks!
r.
