I have a couple of virtus objects:

class Calculation
  include Virtus.model
  include ActiveModel::Validations
  include ActiveModel::Model

  attribute :age_ranges, Array[AgeRange], default: [{from: 16, to: 22},{from: 24, to: 30}]
end


class AgeRange
  include Virtus.model
  include ActiveModel::Validations

  attribute :from, Integer
  attribute :to, Integer
end

And I would like to use form_for on the new view calculation: I tried this code in the view

<%= form_for(@calculation) do |f| %>

  <% @calculation.age_ranges.each do |age_range| %>
    <%= f.fields_for :age_ranges, age_range do |age_range_form_builder| %>
      <%= age_range_form_builder.text_field :from %>
      <%= age_range_form_builder.text_field :to %>
    <% end %>
  <% end %>

<% end %>

but it doesn't work because the input element is rendered as

<input type="text" value="16" name="calculation[age_ranges][from]">

instead of

<input type="text" value="16" name="calculation[age_ranges[][from]]">

The only way I managed to do it through is the following:

<% @calculation.age_ranges.each do |age_range| %>
  <div class="col-sm-6">
    <label for="age_from">From</label>
    <%= text_field("calculation", "age_ranges[][from]", value: age_range.from) %>
  </div>
  <div class="col-sm-6">
    <label for="age_from">To</label>
    <%= text_field("calculation", "age_ranges[][to]", value: age_range.to) %>
  </div>
<% end %>

Is there any way to correctly use form_for here?

  • Can you try this? ``` <%= f.fields_for :age_ranges, @calculation.age_ranges do |age_range_form_builder| %> <%= age_range_form_builder.text_field :from %> <%= age_range_form_builder.text_field :to %> <% end %> ``` is it the same error? I mean, do it as a collection instead. – thelastinuit Feb 07 '19 at 16:39
