Rails - belongs_to, has_many

I'm trying to setup a model relationship in rails and could use your help, as it's not working :0

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :request_threads
end

class RequestThread < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :user, :foreign_key => :creator_id
end

In terms of schemas, the request_threads table has creator_id instead of user_id, maybe that's the issue?开发者_Go百科

I want to be able to do:

@user.request_threads

But this isn't working, errors. Ideas?

Try this out.

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :request_threads, :foreign_key => :creator_id
end

class RequestThread < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :user
end

Controller looks ok. Ok try this out in your RequestThread model.

alias_attribute :user_id, :creator_id

This should work for you.

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :request_threads, :foreign_key => :creator_id
end

class RequestThread < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :user, :foreign_key => :creator_id
end
