I am currently working on a sports app. Users should be able to create new teams and add users to the teams. When a user creates the team, he/she should be able to search for users to add to the team, however the search should only return users that are not yet part of the team. I created a task for it, here is the method

def search_users_for_team(team_id, search_item)
    available_users = Array.new 
    temp_users = store._users.where(name: { '$regex' => /.*#{search_item}.*/, '$options' => 'i' }).all
    team_users = store._teams.where(id: team_id).first._members
    team_users_ids = []
    team_users.each{ |user|
        team_users_ids << user.id
    }

    temp_users.each{ |user|
        if !team_users_ids.include?(user.id)
            available_users << user
        end         
    }
    available_users

end

However i always get a string back from the function.

Did i miss something about tasks in volt.

I use volt 0.9.4.

What string do you get back? You call methods on tasks as class methods, then they return a promise: ```SomeTask.search_users_for_team(...).then do |val| puts val end``` – Ryan Sep 01 '15 at 20:38
Seeing how you called the Task and specifically what string was returned would be useful here. – Rick Sep 02 '15 at 15:37
i get a string which is the representation of the values – kev97444 Sep 04 '15 at 08:19
Volt::ArrayModel[# ] Basically what i get when i use volt console – kev97444 Sep 04 '15 at 08:25
Can you try Volt::ArrayModel.new instead of Array.new? – Rick Sep 07 '15 at 15:08
I will. Until now, i was using to_h on the result to make it work – kev97444 Sep 07 '15 at 15:44
