Hey all, I have something of an interesting requirement for my project. I need a has_one relationship where it is either one class or the other, but without inheritance. I could get away with inheritance if it is the only way, but the two associate records have completely different data and aren't related at all.
What I need to figure...

If I create the top-level object and build_* the other child objects, I can retrieve all child objects through the relationships before and after save() on the original instance.

Hey all -
I have a model in my Rails app that uses the :class_name attribute for has_one:
class Foo < ActiveRecord:Base
has_one :main_bar, :class_name => "Bar"
# ...
end
I'm a bit unsure what to put in the migration for this class now. Can I use references? What will Rails be looking for as the column name for :main_bar? Can I d...

This is a really noob question but im having trouble finding the answer, is there a way in rails to have 0 or 1 association? For example, I create a user with no objects, than later on create an object for that user.
I tried using build with a 'has_one' association but that blew up... The only way I see this working is using 'has_many'....
One thing with which I have long had problems, within the CakePHP framework, is defining simultaneous hasOne and hasMany relationships between two models. For example:
BlogEntry hasMany Comment
BlogEntry hasOne MostRecentComment (where MostRecentComment is the Comment with the most recent created field)
Defining these relationships in...
I have two Models, Modela and Modelb.
Modela can only own one Modelb, but Modelb can be a part of many Modela's.
What I have right now is
class Modela < ActiveRecord::Base
has_one :modelb
end
class Modelb < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :modela, :foreign_key => "modela_id" #might not make sense?
end
Not too sure about the whole...
I have a legacy rails (version 1.2.3) app which runs without issue on a number of servers (not to mention my local environment). Deployed to its newest server, though, and I now get ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid: Mysql::Error: #23000Column 'video_id' cannot be null errors.

I have two models, User and Account. Each user may have one account.
Creating an account for a user works fine. My problem is that when I try to update the account, the previous accounts user_id is nullified and a new account row is created with the user_id. I do not want this happening. I want to update the existing row with the chang...
I'm new to rails, so be nice.
I'm building a "rolodex" type application, and this question is about the best way to handle creating an entity along with several relationship entities at the same time.
For (a contrived) example:
My application will have a Person model, which has_one Contact_Info model. On the create.html.erb page for P...
I need to setup a relationship so that A has one B, but there will be some entries where A doesn't have a B. Is this possible? If not, how can this be done?

I want to have a model called Status which will be relatively static after some user-defined set up (and different users may have different values on status).
The status can apply to different Models, such as Contact and Events.
so contact.status set of possible values will be different from event.status
I want to design the app so th...
I am working on a project where many ActiveRecord models can have a conversation associated with it. Users can discuss just about every aspect of the site. I have two ideas as to how this should be implemented.
1) Use a belongs_to in the asset, not the conversation - conversation will be totally unaware of its asset
class Product< Acti...
My data resembles this:
class Team < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :persons
has_one :leader
end
class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :team
end
Person only belongs to one Team, but of the many team members there is only 1 leader.
First question: should I use belongs_to instead of has_one in the Team model?
Second: Team i...
