What is the best practice to create has_one (always exist) model
relationships when creating the parent model.
eg:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
has_one :balance
end
class Balance < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :user
end
A User always has a Balance
I would like to create the Balance model when the User is saved.
There is 3 (maybe more choices to accomplish this), which one is the
best practice:
1. Create the Balance model and associate it to the User from the
controller that is creating the User model.
2. Do it in the User model with after_create :create_balance
3. Do it in a UserObeserver:
class UserObserver < ActiveRecord::Observer
def after_create(user)
balance = Balance.new(:amount => 0)
balance = customer
balance.save
end
end
Thanks! If this has been covered before, sorry, but just not finding
the right search terms to limit results.
