Hi experts,
I am new to rails and am struggling for several days with a following
model
(Rails 2.2.2).
People are submitting requests, each request has one submitter, one
approver, several reviewers and several responsible people.
I was able to get this model working:
class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :Requests
end
class Request < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :Approver, :class_name => “Person”, :foreign_key =>
“approver_id”
belongs_to :Submitter, :class_name => “Person”, :foreign_key =>
“submitter_id”
end
But I am really stuck in creating HABTM relationship between
requests<->reviewers and requests<->responsible_people… I do not want
to
create separate tables for each group of people as one is sometimes
submitter/approver and sometimes belongs to reviewers/responsible.
Can you someone point me the right direction?
Thanks!
