Render and Redirect in Rails 3

Render and Redirect

The normal controller/view flow is to display a view template corresponding to the current controller action, but sometimes we want to change that. We use render in a controller when we want to respond within the current request, and redirect_to when we want to spawn a new request.

Render

The render method is very overloaded in Rails. Most developers encounter it within the view template, using render :partial => 'form' or render @post.comments, but here we'll focus on usage within the controller.

:action

Reverse polymorphic associations in Rails

Polymorphic Associations reversed

It's pretty easy to do polymorphic associations in Rails: A Picture can belong to either a BlogPost or an Article. But what if you need the relationship the other way around? A Picture, a Text and a Video can belong to an Article, and that article can find all media by calling @article.media

This example shows how to create an ArticleElement join model that handles the polymorphic relationship. To add fields that are common to all polymorphic models, add fields to the join model.

Ways to use VCR for a request made by a let block
# 1) Use VCR.use_cassette in your let block. This will use
# the cassette just for requests made by creating bar, not
# for anything else in your test.
let(:foo) { VCR.use_cassette("foo") { create(:bar) } }
it "uses foo" do
foo
end
# 2) Wrap the it block that uses #foo in VCR.use_cassette.
