params[:subscribers].each do |subscriber_hash|
my_record = SubscriberModel.new(subscriber_hash)
my_record.save
end if params[:subscribers]
Assuming that SubscriberModel is an activerecord model that maps to a
table with similar layout as the hash.
Otherwise, define your own class with an initializer method like so
and do whatever you want with it.
class SubscriberModel
attr_accessor :name, :msidsm, :imsi, :imei
def initialize(init_hash={})
@name = init_hash["name"]
@msidsm = init_hash["msidsm"]
@imsi = init_hash["imsi"]
@imei = init_hash["imei"]
end
end
----------------------
Alternatively, I could be way off base. Let me know if it works for
you. :p
