Howdy. Ruby N. here.
I have a couple of methods in one of my models:
def program_asset
if promo?
PromoVersion.find(self[:promo_vid])
elsif feature?
play_id = self[:play_id]
my_play = Playdate.find(play_id)
my_fid = my_play[:fid]
ProductVersionFormat.find(my_fid)
else
logger.fatal "Came across a log item that was neither a promo nor
a feature: " + self
end
end
def program_asset_xml
program_asset.to_xml(:skip_instruct => true)
end
include the first-level associations.
alias_method :ar_to_xml, :to_xml
def to_xml(options = {})
default_methods = [:program_asset_xml]
options[:methods] = (options[:methods] ? options[:methods] +
default_methods : default_methods )
ar_to_xml(options)
end
Sort of works okay, except here is a snippet of XML that gets returned
to a browser or client:
…
<video_guide></video_guide>
<program_asset_xml>
<promo_version>
<anchor_type></anchor_type>
<artesia_did type=“integer”></artesia_did>
…
<video_guide>N</video_guide>
</promo_version>
</program_asset_xml>
…
The :include-d program asset’s XML gets converted into an escaped
string, where the angle brackets have been replaced by < and > .
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks very much in advance for any help, as well as any other
suggestions you may have!
