Hello
I am developing an application on rails using a couchDB database. I already can connect to the database and view some information. Now I am trying to create a new object of my model.
My model is named author. My controller is named authors.
The code of my model is the following one:
[code] class Author < CouchRest::Model::Base
timestamps!
property :_id, String property :id, Integer property :title, String property :first_name, String property :last_name, String
view_by :id, :map => "function(doc) { if(doc._id.indexOf('Authors_') == 0) { emit(null, doc); } }" end [/code]
The code of my controller is the following one:
[quote] class AuthorsController < ApplicationController def list @authors = Author.by_id() end
def new @author =Author.new respond_to do |format| format.html # new.html.erb format.xml { render :xml => @author } end end
end [/quote]
The code of my new.html.erb file is the following one:
[quote] <h1>New author form</h1>
<% form_for @author do |f| %> <div class="field"> <p><%= f.label :title %> <%= f.text_field :title %></p> </div>
<p><%= f.label :first_name %> <%= f.text_field :first_name %></p>
<p><%= f.label :last_name %> <%= f.text_field :last_name %></p>
<div class="action"> <p><%= f.submit :create %></p> </div>
<% end %>
<%= link_to 'Back', authors_path %> [/quote]
The list method is working fine, it shows what I am expecting to. However, the "new" html page does not shows anything except the title and the "back" link. No error is generated. Everything is ok except that the form is not generated/displayed/rendered. Does anyone have an idea about the problem/solution of it? Thank you Best regards
