Job System user authentications problems

Rails
1

Hi All,

I have created sample job application which contain employers area,
admin area and I am using Mysql database. I have created job post area
or form via scaffold then I created authenticated area for employers
via act_as_authenticated, now I have two users when they login they
can see all posts and they can update or delete.

I want each user see his job posts, and by the way I have users table
which created by act_as_authenticated and jobs tables I have created
manually for job posts. I have added FK called users_id in jobs table
and it pointing to PK ID in users tables. When the employer fill new
job post his ID not add to the database I don’t know why.

Could you please guide me to fix users authentications?

I am reading Agile Web D. with Rails book which good but it
talk about shopping cart, I have not find what I need in other book,
this is why I wrote my post here and looking for your help.

Yours,
Waleed

You will need to post the problem code.

My post code I called employer as you see below :

class EmployerController < ApplicationController
before_filter :login_required

def index
list
render :action => ‘list’

end

GETs should be safe (see

URIs, Addressability, and the use of HTTP GET and POST)
verify :method => :post, :only => [ :destroy, :create, :update ],
:redirect_to => { :action => :list }

def list

@job_pages, @jobs = paginate :jobs, :per_page => 10

end

def show
@job = Job.find(params[:id])
end

def new
@job = Job.new
end

def create
@job = Job.new(params[:job])
if @job.save
flash[:notice] = ‘Job was successfully created.’
redirect_to :action => ‘list’
else
render :action => ‘new’
end
end

def edit
@job = Job.find(params[:id])
end

def update
@job = Job.find(params[:id])
if @job.update_attributes(params[:job])
flash[:notice] = ‘Job was successfully updated.’
redirect_to :action => ‘show’, :id => @job
else
render :action => ‘edit’
end
end

def destroy
Job.find(params[:id]).destroy
redirect_to :action => ‘list’
end
end

This above code generated by scaffold and I have added
before_filter :login_required.

Could you please clarify it more?

1- I will add belongs_to :employer to User model
2- I do not have employer model and I have created it also I added
has_many :jobs, and has_one :user
3- I added belongs_to :employer to Job model.

Still not work it show all list for all posts, by the way do I need
create FK in my database? when I post new job i saw my FK null.

Any advices please ?

The must be user_id not users_id. That could be the problem. Look at
the output in the dev log.

You need to make some new files.

A User model (which I think you already have) which
belongs_to :employer
An Employer model which has_many :jobs, and has_one :user
A Job Model which belongs_to :employer

The code you listed shows all your Job activies in your employer
controller.
Get all your controller code generated. I have the feeling you got a
little mixed up.

thanks,
C.

If you are seeing all jobs for all posts you are making progress.

If your Employer model has_many :jobs than you can do something like

@first_employer = Employer.find(:first)

than in a view you can do

<% @first_employer.jobs.each do |job| %>
<%= job.id %>

<% end %>

It is user_id
