Strong Parameters in Rails 3.2.8

问题

This video states that it is possible to protect the input coming in via the controller yet still be able to do mass assignment via models and specs. However, I have not seen this documented as a feature when using strong_parameters in 3.2.8.

I understand that I need to mix in ActiveModel::ForbiddenAttributesProtection into my models and set config.active_record.whitelist_attributes = false in config/application.rb. I have also pulled all of my attr_accessible calls from the model.

With or without the mixin I am getting mass assignment errors.

ActiveModel::MassAssignmentSecurity::Error: Can't mass-assign protected attributes: home_phone, cell_phone

Am I missing something?

The suggested RailsCast is probably a good start, but here is a summary of what you have to do in Rails 3.x to get strong parameters working instead of attr_accessible:

1. Add gem 'strong_parameters' to your Gemfile and run bundle.

2. Comment out (or set to false) config.active_record.whitelist_attributes = true in config/application.rb

3. Mix in the ActiveModel::ForbiddenAttributesProtection in your model. Do this per model, or apply globally to all models with:

   ActiveRecord::Base.send(:include, ActiveModel::ForbiddenAttributesProtection)

   (The railscast proposes to do this in a new initializer: config/initializers/strong_parameters.rb )

4. From now on you will have to use syntax such as this:

   model_params = params[:model].permit( :attribute, :another_attribute )
   @model.update_attributes( model_params )
   

   when you update your models. In this case any attribute in params[:model] except :attribute and :another_attribute will cause an ActiveModel::ForbiddenAttributes error.

You can also use the rest of the new magic from ActionController::Parameters, such as .require(:attribute) to force the presence of an attribute.

It isn't the same as your issue but it may come up for someone else getting MassAssignmentSecurity::Error. I've hit an issue that 'id' and 'type' attributes seem to be protected by default even when I had taken the prescribed steps to switch to using strong parameters rather than mass assignment protection. I had an association named 'type' which I renamed to 'project_type' to resolve the problem (the attribute was already project_type_id).
