has_one,:through =>模型VS简单方法?

Har*_*tor 12 ruby activerecord model ruby-on-rails ruby-on-rails-3

我有一些问题使用has_one, through => model.最好的是告诉你我的情况.

class Category
  has_many :articles
end

class Article
  has_many :comments
  belongs_to :category
end

class Comment
  belongs_to :article
  has_one :category, :through => :articles
end

Everthing工作正常.我能做到comment.category.问题是当我创建新评论并设置其文章时,我已保存评论以使关联有效.示例:

 >> comment = Comment.new
 >> comment.article = Article.last
 >> comment.category
     -> nil
 >> comment.article.category
     -> the category
 >> comment.save
 >> comment.category
     -> nil
 >> comment.reload
 >> comment.category
     -> the category

has_one, through => model无论如何不要设置,构建构造函数和创建方法.所以,我想通过以下方式替换我的评论模型:

class Comment
  belongs_to :article
  def category
    article.category
  end
end

听起来不错?

你的想法没有错.我看不到很多情况has_one :category, :through => :articles会是明显更好的选择(除非急于加载Comment.all(:include => :category)).

提示delegate:

class Comment
  belongs_to :article
  delegate :category, :to => :article

一种不同的方法:

class Comment
  belongs_to :article
  has_one :category, :through => :article

  def category_with_delegation
    new_record? ? article.try(:category) : category_without_delegation
  end

  alias_method_chain :category, :delegation
