undefined method for #<FactoryGirl::Declaration::Implicit

[kadoudal]

I am trying to reference an implicit parameter after creating a factory instance

 account is an implicit parameter :  FactoryGirl.create(:site, account: @account)  or FactoryGirl.create(:site)

but it seems I cannot access it in the after_create block .. any clue ?

FactoryGirl.define do

  factory :site  do |s|

    ignore do

     account { FactoryGirl.create(:account) }

    end

......

    after(:create) do |site| 

      subdomain = FactoryGirl.build(:subdomain, ...)

      s.account.subdomains << subdomain

    end

  end

end

I tried rewriting it this way, wo any success => Exception: undefined local variable or method `account_id'

FactoryGirl.define do

  factory :site  do |cs|

    ignore do

     account_id { FactoryGirl.create(:account).id }

    end

......

    after(:create) do |site| 

      subdomain = FactoryGirl.build(:subdomain, ...)

 account = Account.find(account_id)

      account.subdomains << subdomain

    end

  end

end

[SOLVED]    account is not an attribute of Site..  and I don't want to modify the Site model to add it  ( in a gem)

so I resolved to take it out of the Factory (keeping it simple) and modify my test

    @site = FactoryGirl.create(:site)

    @subdomain = FactoryGirl.create(:subdomain, site: @site )

    @account.subdomains << @subdomain

Hi,

Looks like you're going in the right direction

Something to keep in mind for the future:

after(:create) takes 2 parameters, the object being build and the parameter context, which is often called the evaluator.

FactoryGirl.define do

  factory :account do

  end

  factory :subdomain do

  end

  factory :site  do

    association :subdomain

    ignore do

     account { FactoryGirl.create(:account) } #maybe this should be a build

    end

    after(:create) do |site, evaluator|

      evaluator.account.subdomains << site.subdomain

    end

  end

end

Hope that helps
