guacamole: Models in subfolders

[Klaus Humme]

Hi everybody,

in my rails app I decided to sort my models in subfolders, i.e. app/models for normal user frontend-dependent models, app/models/admin for administration models and so on.

The models in app/models/admin look like:

class Admin::FilingReasonTemplate
  include Guacamole::Model
 
  #...
end

and for the referring collection which reside in app/collections/admin

class Admin::FilingReasonTemplatesCollection
  include Guacamole::Collection
end

Now, when I try to create a model with

seed = Admin::FilingReasonTemplate.new(description: 'something)
Admin::FilingReasonTemplatesCollection.save seed

the creation of the collection fails with

GET http://localhost:8529/_db/ecasso_development/_api/collection/admin/filing_reason_templates
GET http://localhost:8529/_db/ecasso_development/_api/collection/admin/filing_reason_templates 404
POST http://localhost:8529/_db/ecasso_development/_api/collection
POST http://localhost:8529/_db/ecasso_development/_api/collection 400
Ashikawa::Core::BadSyntax: 1208: cannot create collection: illegal name

I think Ashikawa tries to create a subfolder 'admin' in collections instead of creating a collection named admin_filing_reason_templates.

Are there any suggestions how to solve this?

Cheers
Klaus

Hi Klaus,

great to see you're going all the way with Guacamole. And sorry for the problems along that way.

Currently we don't have a nice configuration interface for that sort of things nor do handle namespaces
correctly.

Nevertheless you could 'just' overwrite the responsible methods in your collection classes:

class Admin::FilingReasonTemplatesCollection
include Guacamole::Collection

def self.collection_name
super.gsub('/', '_')
end

def self.model_class
Admin::FilingReasonTemplate
end
end

This should fix your problems for now. I will create an issue to address this.

Cheers
Dirk
