Two different properties from the same property

[Filipe Rocha]

Hi,

I have a property :clinical_sign which represents the main clinical sign. But I'd also would like to include a collection of clinical signs for more details. I have two models Patient and ClinicalSign.

Basically all I want is a belongs_to and a collection_of clinical signs on different fields. Can you help me?

Thanks,

Filipe

Hi Filipe,

There should not be a problem with including both:

class Patient < CouchRest::Model::Base

  belongs_to :clinical_sign

  collection_of :clinical_signs

end

If you wanted to use shorter helper method names, you could also do:

class Patient < CouchRest::Model::Base

  belongs_to :sign, class_name: 'ClinicalSign'

  collection_of :signs, class_name: 'ClinicalSign'

end

These will of course store the ids of the associated ClinicalSign documents inside the Patient. If you wanted to embed a ClinicalSign object, you'd use the property field:

class Patient < CouchRest::Model::Base

  property :clinical_sign, ClinicalSign

  property :clinical_signs, [ClinicalSign]

end

Hope that helps.

Hi Sam,

thanks. You've helped a lot! :)

Since I’m asking for help how would you create a view that instead of showing the ids it would show the sign_name property of ClinicalSign?

Thanks,

Filipe
