Saving enum from select in Rails 4.1

Question

I am using the enums in Rails 4.1 to keep track of colors of wine.

Wine.rb

class Wine < ActiveRecord::Base
    enum color: [:red,         


        

Answer 1

If you use enum in Rails 4 then just call Model.enums:

f.select :color, Wine.colors.keys

To create HTML:

    red
    white
     sparkling 

Or add method in controller:

def update_or_create
    change_enum_to_i
    ....
end

def change_enum_to_i
    params[:f]["color"] = params[:f]["color"].to_i
end
