12.3 Iteration G3: Downloading an eBook 12.1 Iteration G1: Capturing an Order

12.2 Iteration G2: Atom Feeds

Demonstrate various respond_to/format options, as well as "through" relations and basic authentication.

Define a "who_bought" member action

edit app/controllers/products_controller.rb
  def who_bought
    @product = Product.find(params[:id])
    @latest_order = @product.orders.order(:updated_at).last
    if stale?(@latest_order)
      respond_to do |format|
        format.atom
      end
    end
  end

Define an Atom view (using the Atom builder)

edit app/views/products/who_bought.atom.builder
atom_feed do |feed|
  feed.title "Who bought #{@product.title}"
 
  feed.updated @latest_order.try(:updated_at) 
 
  @product.orders.each do |order|
    feed.entry(order) do |entry|
      entry.title "Order #{order.id}"
      entry.summary type: 'xhtml' do |xhtml|
        xhtml.p "Shipped to #{order.address}"
 
        xhtml.table do
          xhtml.tr do
            xhtml.th 'Product'
            xhtml.th 'Quantity'
            xhtml.th 'Total Price'
          end
          order.line_items.each do |item|
            xhtml.tr do
              xhtml.td item.product.title
              xhtml.td item.quantity
              xhtml.td number_to_currency item.total_price
            end
          end
          xhtml.tr do
            xhtml.th 'total', colspan: 2
            xhtml.th number_to_currency \
              order.line_items.map(&:total_price).sum
          end
        end
 
        xhtml.p "Paid by #{order.pay_type}"
      end
      entry.author do |author|
        author.name order.name
        author.email order.email
      end
    end
  end
end

Add "orders" to the Product class

edit app/models/product.rb
class Product < ApplicationRecord
  has_many :line_items
  has_many :orders, through: :line_items
  #...
end

Add to the routes

edit config/routes.rb
