I am trying to use this gem activerecord-reputation-system https://github.com/twitter/activerecord-reputation-system
However that is not the problem I am running into, I am running into a problem with how ActiveRecord works with accepting params using form_for
Currently I have the :teacher param being saved in the update method of the controller like this:
@course.add_evaluation(key, params[:teacher], current_user)
In my view, this is the form I am using to submit to the Course
= form_for @course do |f|
= f.number_field :teacher
= f.submit
When you submit the form it gives this error
undefined method `teacher' for #<Course:0x007f00ea2f4030>
I know it gives this error because the "teacher" column does not exist in the Course, however I don't want it to exist in the Course because it already exists in the reputation tables.
Am I going about this the wrong way? How to I ensure that the reputation gets added to a specific course if I can't use this?
form_for @course
Do I have to do something like this? This feels like poor programming to me.
form_tag courses_path + course_name, :method => 'post'
