Currently, my ReactJS application is connected to a Rails 5 API.
The React application sends a single JSON POST request to api/v1/job in order to create a new job record. This request contains information for two HABTM relationships with Tools and Technologies.
Job - has_and_belongs_to_many :technologiesJob - has_and_belongs_to_many :toolsI am wondering how I can update the appropriate join tables in my rails controller with the ID's related to Job, Technologies, and Tools.
The structure of the request is as follows, where the numbers represent IDs:
{
"job" : {
...
"technologies" : [ "1", "6", "9" ],
"tools" : [ "3", "5" ],
...
}
}
It's important to note that the request is sent as an axios POST request with JSON data, so there are no traditional form fields.
In my controller, I can access the params successfully like this:
@technologies = params[job][technologies]
