I am trying to override a model of forem gem so that I could use thumbs_up gem for voting purpose.
I did a rails g model Post and trying to inherit the post model of forem by this line of code
class Post < Forem::Post
acts_as_voteable
end
same for the controller
class PostsController < Forem::Postscontroller
def vote_up
begin
current_user.vote_for(@post = Post.find(params[:id]))
render :nothing => true, :status => 200
rescue ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid
render :nothing => true, :status => 404
end
end
end
I keep getting this error
undefined method `vote_up_post_path'
in my route.rb
mount Forem::Engine, :at => "/forums"
resources :posts do
member do
post :vote_up
end
end
I guess I am doing something really stupid out here and I am not overriding the model correctly. I was using this Clarification on how to use "thumbs_up" voting gem with Rails 3 post to set up thumbs_up
Can someone help??
It seems it was a stupid mistake, realized it while having discussion with patrickmcgraw.
forem hides your routes and and you have to mention main_app before the routes, so after writing
main_app.vote_up_post_path
instead of vote_up_post_path
the page was up again.
Hope it helps someone trying to use forem.
