I have a store administration tool I’m trying to build.
One view is an item view. Each item can have many attributes.
Example:
item: bike
item_id: 2333
attribute: id: 3 #auto-increment
item_id: 2333 #primary key
attribute_type: wheels #a type of attribute
attribute_order: 1 #the order it shows up in the
list
attribute: id: 4 #auto-increment
item_id: 2333 #primary key
attribute_type: wheels #a type of attribute
attribute_order: 2 #the order it shows up in the
list
attribute: id: 6 #auto-increment
item_id: 2333 #primary key
attribute_type: colors #a type of attribute
attribute_order: 1 #the order it shows up in the
list
This bike may have many wheel attributes, many color attributes, etc.
What I’d like to do is be able to have a view that displays both the
item level information, and all of the attributes of that item so I can
edit them all on one page.
I’m not sure how the name of the input tag would be structured.
ex:
But how do I specify which one of the attributes?
And then how would I update the entire list of attributes in the
controller?
@item.update_attributes(params[XYZ])
?
Thanks for your help!
