Has_many,通过协会

Question

警告:Total Rails Newb(TRN).这应该是一个非常基本的问题,所以我希望有人可以节省几分钟来帮助解决问题.

假设我有以下模型:用户,组和成员用户可以拥有多个组(比如说朋友,家人等).组可以有很多成员,即其他用户.

我该如何构建这个？

最初我试过这个:

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :groups
  has_many :groups, :through => :members
end

class Groups < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :users, :through => :members
  belongs_to :user
end

class Member < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :group
  belongs_to :user
end

但是这给了我一个用户错误,所以我改变了

has_many :groups, :through => :members

至

has_many :memberships, :through => :members, :source => :groups

当我尝试时,仍然会收到关于缺少关联的错误

group = Group.new
group.user.new

它将很有用:http://railscasts.com/episodes/47-two-many-to-many

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :members
  has_many :groups, :through => :members
  has_many :groups_as_owner, :class_name => "Group"
end

class Groups < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :members
  has_many :users, :through => :members
  belongs_to :owner, :class_name => "User", :foreign_key => :user_id
end

class Member < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :group
  belongs_to :user
end
