Issue with CanCan resource loading
I'm using CanCan and I've run into an error I'm having trouble diagnosing.
Some users testing my application have received NoMethodError: undefined method 'where' for nil:NilClass
originating from the line noted below.
Under what circumstances would load_and_authorize_resource
leave @jobs
as nil
at that point?
class JobsController < ApplicationController
load_and_authorize_resource
def index
if Job::STATES.include? params[:state]
if p开发者_如何学Goarams[:state] == 'in_progress'
@jobs = @jobs.where(['state = ? or state = ?', params[:state], 'needs_confirmation'])
else
###################################################
# Error thrown here
@jobs = @jobs.where(['state = ?', params[:state]])
###################################################
end
end
end
end
And the relevent CanCan code:
if user.role? :employee
can :read, Job do |j|
(j.employee == user) or ( j.employee == nil )
end
end
You should be doing Job.where(...)
- you are getting that error because you are indeed calling where
on a nil instance variable. I personally do not rely too much on load_resource
, there's no harm in being explicit.
