gcorbel / activeform-rails Goto Github PK

Hello,

Sorry for the newbie issue, but I have problems validating an object I create using activeform-rails.

I created a new class, and included ActiveForm::Form and ActiveForm::ValidateUniqueness. When I attempt to validate a valid object (valid?), it works fine. When I attempt to validate an invalid object, I get "NameError: uninitialized constant ActiveForm::Form::ClassMethods::UnpersistentModel".

If I put in my class "include ActiveForm::UnpersistentModel" I get "NameError: uninitialized constant ActiveForm::UnpersistentModel".

If I put in my .rb file (or on my irb console) the actual code from the unpersistent_model.rb file, everything works fine.

I am sure I am doing something simple incorrectly, perhaps mixing ActiveForm::UnpersistentModel into my class incorrectly.

Your help appreciated.

Any plans to update (if any such updates are even needed) for Rails 4?

@GCorbel, I was pretty excited when I saw your form object the other day, so integrated at the earliest opportunity. Thanks for contributing it to the community. However, as you can see, I've hit a number of issues using it and have done what I can to help by submitting my two pull requests #2 and #1.

I have now gone home and started wondering if I made the right choice changing from our home grown object models to this gem simply because it's turned out to be a lot more work than I thought. I then did a bit of searching too and came across https://github.com/apotonick/reform.

I'd like to know specifically what you were aiming to achieve with this Gem as opposed to simply using https://github.com/apotonick/reform? I am happy to help contribute, but equally if there is a gem out there that already does the job well, I'd like to know why we shouldn't just use that.
