Serialize array with strong_parameters

Question

I am trying to save a array using the strong_parameters gem. But I am having issues with how the form is sending my array. The params look like this:

> pa         


        

Answer 1

Try using this:

def circuit_params
  params.require(:circuit).permit(:title, :id, viewable_tasks:[], ... )
end

Answer 2

the serialized items must be in the end of the permit parameters. In my experience (and i dont know exactly why), you cannot input another unserialized item after a serialized one... try and let us know.

Answer 3

I just had the same issue and this was the correct syntax:

def circuit_params
  params.require(:circuit).permit(:title, :id, {:viewable_tasks => []}, ... )
end
