The documentation says to return a code 422 with a packet in the following format:
<errors type="array"><error>First cannot be empty</error></errors>
So that is what I am doing. But my model will not raise an exception on a create call that returns such a response, and a record created that way returns true for its valid? call.
I simply do:
Menu.create
Which triggers validation errors in the other application, which responds with 422 and the following packet, because a "name" field is required:
<errors type="array"> <error>Name cannot be empty</error> </errors>
Why would ActiveResource interpret such a response as valid? Is there something more I need to do in my model for validations to take effect? My models themselves are dead simple:
class ApplicationResource < ActiveResource::Base self.site = 'http://localhost/frontend/www/api’ end
class Menu < ApplicationResource end
