Hello, I am new to rails and I need a little help getting started with a simple association. Here is what I am trying to do.
I have a model, message, which has text and a user (do not need to worry about associating users to messages right now). These messages come in and I would like to create a response for each, which itself is a message. Then I would like to create a transaction paring these responses and requests. @request = Message.create(:text => "Some text") @response = Message.create(:text => "Some text back") @some_transaction = Transaction.create(:request => @request.id, :response => @response.id) >From there I would like to be able to sort through each transaction: @some_transaction.request.text How are these associations formed? When generating the models do I need to have columns for request/response or request_id/response_id? Thanks for any help! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
