Hello,-
does anyone have a good idea of how to trace a fault in the following:
I have a User model (user.rb) with these methods:
def create_reset_code
code = User.get_random_string(10) #working class method
self.password_reset_code = code
self.save(false)
@reset = true
#Notifier.deliver_reset_notification(self) #works from here
end
def recently_reset?
@reset
end
Also I have an Observer with this code:
class UserObserver < ActiveRecord::Observer
def after_save(user)
debugger
puts "I observe " + user.username
puts "Did " + user.username + " reset his password? " +
user.recently_reset?.to_s
Notifier.deliver_reset_notification(user) if user.recently_reset?
end
end
The problem is that the user.recently_reset? in the Observer returns
nil.
When I test def recently_reset? interactively in the console (testing
the User model), it works as intended. So the user model works correctly
and the Observer does, too (as evidenced by the debugger and the first
puts statement).
I tried to test the UserObserver interactively but get this:
obs = UserObserver.new
NoMethodError: private method `new’ called for UserObserver:Class
from (irb):1
Why does the Observer fail to read the user.recently_reset? correctly?
Thanks a lot,
Vahagn
