Hi,
I’m creating multi page form (wizard like pages) in my application using
code at
http://snippets.dzone.com/posts/show/277#related
problem ===> When I create a new coupon first time, it is stored in DB.
After saving I try to clear out(delete old session in which coupon
object is stored) session using session.delete(‘partial_coupon’) But
session is not get clear and also coupon object is not get store in DB.
Please tell me what went wrong?
Following is controller code---->
class CouponsController < ApplicationController
before_filter :get_partial_coupon_from_session, :only =>
[:business_coupon]
after_filter :save_partial_coupon_in_session, :only =>
[:business_coupon]
def business_coupon
case request.method
when :post
@current_stage = params[‘current_stage’]
if @current_stage == “stage1”
@coupon.attributes = {:title => params[:coupon][:title]}
if valid_for_attributes(@coupon,[“title”])
@current_stage = “stage2”
end
elsif @current_stage == “stage2”
@coupon.attributes = {:tag_line => params[:coupon][:tag_line]}
if valid_for_attributes(@coupon,[“tag_line”])
@current_stage = “stage3”
end
elsif @current_stage == “stage3”
@coupon.attributes = {:price => params[:coupon][:price]}
if @coupon.save
HERE I TRY TO CLEAR SESSION DATA
session.delete('partial_coupon')
flash['notice'] = "Coupon successfully created."
render :action => "show", :id => @coupon
else
flash[:error] = "Could not save coupon
#{@coupon.errors.full_messages().join(', ')}"
end
end
when :get
@current_stage = "stage1"
end
end
private
def get_partial_coupon_from_session
unless session[‘partial_coupon’].nil?
@coupon = session[‘partial_coupon’]
else
@coupon = Coupon.new
end
end
def save_partial_coupon_in_session
unless @coupon.nil?
session['partial_coupon'] = @coupon
end
end
def valid_for_attributes( model, attributes )
unless model.valid?
errors = model.errors
our_errors = Array.new
errors.each { |attr,error|
if attributes.include? attr
our_errors << [attr,error]
end
}
errors.clear
our_errors.each { |attr,error| errors.add(attr,error) }
return false unless errors.empty?
end
return true
end
def clear_stage_errors
unless session[‘partial_coupon’].nil?
session[‘partial_coupon’].errors.clear
end
end
end
