Rails DB Seeding

For some reason, the food_id field in 'ratings' isn't populating when I run the seed.rb file below. Can somebody help me figure out why?

Seed file contains the following lines:

Food.create(:id => 1, :description => 'Stonyfield Farm Yomommy 4oz. Strawberry')
OverallRating.create(:score => 0, :count => 1, :food_id => 1)

Code for Food and Rating are as follows: class OverallRating < Rating b开发者_如何学JAVAelongs_to :food end

class Food < ActiveRecord::Base
   has_one :overall_rating
end

class Rating < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :food
end

The rating migration file is as follows:

class CreateRatings < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def self.up
    create_table :ratings do |t|
      t.integer :food_id
      t.integer :count
      t.decimal :score
      t.string :type
      t.timestamps
    end
  end

  def self.down
    drop_table :ratings
  end
end

how are you invoking the seeds.rb file? You may have to do a rake db:seed

Is that really the actual code? I would guess you've got an attr_accessible or attr_protected declaration in Rating/OverallRating that is preventing the option from being set in the instantiated object.

Instead of hardcoding the id, try something like this:

food = Food.create(:description => 'blah')
food.create_overall_rating(:score => 0, :count => 1)

I just tried your exact method though, and it worked for me without a problem. So perhaps you have something else awry.
