ruby on rails - How to use nested_attributes when processing JSON? -


i'm trying write update method processes json. json looks this:

{   "organization": {     "id": 1,     "nodes": [       {         "id": 1,         "title": "hello",         "description": "my description."       },       {         "id": 101,         "title": "fdhgh",         "description": "my description."       }     ]   } } 

organization model:

has_many :nodes accepts_nested_attributes_for :nodes, reject_if: :new_record? 

organization serializer:

attributes :id has_many :nodes 

node serializer:

attributes :id, :title, :description 

update method in organizations controller:

def update   organization = organization.find(params[:id])   if organization.update_attributes(nodes_attributes: node_params.except(:id))     render json: organization, status: :ok   else     render json: organization, status: :failed   end end  private   def node_params     params.require(:organization).permit(nodes: [:id, :title, :description])   end 

i tried adding accepts_nested_attributes_for organization serializer, not seem correct generated error (undefined method 'accepts_nested_attributes_for'), i've added accepts_nested_attributes_for model , not serializer.

the code above generates error below, referring update_attributes line in update method. doing wrong?

no implicit conversion of string integer

in debugger node_params returns:

unpermitted parameters: id {"nodes"=>[{"id"=>101, "title"=>"gsdgdsfgsdg.", "description"=>"dgdsfgd."}, {"id"=>1, "title"=>"ertret.", "description"=>"etewtete."}]} 

update: got work using following:

def update   organization = organization.find(params[:id])   if organization.update_attributes(nodes_params)     render json: organization, status: :ok   else     render json: organization, status: :failed   end end  private   def node_params     params.require(:organization).permit(:id, nodes_attributes: [:id, :title, :description])   end 

to serializer added root: :nodes_attributes.

it works, i'm concerned including id in node_params. safe? wouldn't possible edit id of organization , node (which shouldn't allowed)? would following proper solution not allowing update id's:

if organization.update_attributes(nodes_params.except(:id, nodes_attributes: [:id])) 

looks super close.

your json child object 'nodes' need 'nodes_attributes'.

{   "organization": {     "id": 1,     "nodes_attributes": [       {         "id": 1,         "title": "hello",         "description": "my description."       },       {         "id": 101,         "title": "fdhgh",         "description": "my description."       }     ]   } }
