π€ Motivation
In the case of ..,
- The form in the view isn't made from only one model
- You don't want to write the form specific logic in the model
You might want to introduce a form object. Because it isolates the responsibility from model/view/controller to form.
π Solution
1. Introduce a form class
# forms/dog_form.rb
class DogForm
include ActiveModel::Model
attr_accessor :id, :name
validates :name, presence: true
# This method is for getting dog collection with some εΆη΄
def search
rel = Operation
rel = rel.where(id: id) if id.present?
rel = rel.where("name LIKE (?)", "%#{name}%") if name.present?
rel = rel.newer
end
def save
return false if invalid?
# do something ( save, notify, logging)
true
end
end
2. Use it in any controller
# dogs_controller.rb
def index
@serach_form = DogForm.new(params[:search])
@dogs = @serach_form.search.page params[:page]
end
3. The erb will be like this
# dogs/index.html.erb
<%= form_for(@serach_form, as: 'search', url: manage_dogs_path, html:{method: :get}) do |f| %>
<div>
<div><%= f.text_field :id %></div>
<div><%= f.text_field :name %></div>
</div>
<%= f.button t('words.actions.search') %>
<% end %>
