TLDR: Button to update status attribute of a table

Mission: add buttons to change the status of a task

change-status.gif

HOWTO:

migration - add status column to tasks

add_column :tasks, :status, :string, null: false, default: "planned"
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

task.rb - list available statuses

  validates :status, presence: true  STATUSES = [:planned, :progress, :done]
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

tasks_controller.rb - add action to change status

  def change_status    @task = Task.find(params[:id])    if params[:status].present? && Task::STATUSES.include?(params[:status].to_sym)      @task.update(status: params[:status])    end    redirect_to @task, notice: "Status updated to #{@task.status}"  end
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

routes.rb - add actionable link to change status.

  resources :tasks do    member do      patch :change_status    end  end
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

tasks/show.html.erb

  <% Task::STATUSES.each do |status| %>    <%= link_to change_status_task_path(@task, status: status), method: :patch do %>      <%= status %>    <% end %>  <% end %>
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Voila, that's it!
