Hello
I am writing a RoR application which connects to a noSQL database (couchDB).
In the database, I have an author document. The author has a first_name and a last_name. It also have inside another document: a book. The book has a title and a year of publication.
Example: { author { "first_name" : "abc", "last_name" : "def" "book" { "title" : "the jungle book", "year" : "1922" } } }
I am trying to define the Author model file so I can access Author's information as so related book information:
class Author < CouchRest::Model::Base
property :first_name property :last_name property :book
... end
However, when in the HTML file I try to access to the book author's information, I get errors.
HTML example: <td><%=h author.first_name %> <%=h author.last_name %> <%=h author.book.title %></td>
The error I get is: undefined method `title' for Symbol
It's the first time I am developing a RoR application using a CouchDB application, so I am pretty sure that the problem comes from the way I am defining the Author's model file.
Can anyone help me about that?
Thank you
