In the context of a real estate app, where you want to associate property owners (contacts/users) with properties and allow searching and saving of these associations, you'll need to set up a relationship between the models and implement the necessary features. Here's a general outline of how you could approach this using Ruby on Rails and Jumpstart Pro:
Assuming you have models named Property and User (contacts), and you want to associate multiple users with a property (since there can be multiple owners for a property), you can use a many-to-many relationship.
Set up Models and Associations:
In your app/models directory, create the model files for Property and User. For a many-to-many relationship, you'll need a join table to associate properties and users. Let's call it Ownership.
Database Migrations:
Generate migrations to create the necessary database tables.
User Interface:
In the property show page, you can implement a search box to search for users and associate them with the property. This could involve an AJAX-based search to provide real-time results as the user types.
For the search functionality, you can use Rails' built-in ActionView::Helpers::FormHelper with AJAX requests. The specifics of this step can vary based on your design and technology stack. You would need to create a form that submits search queries to a controller action, and the controller action would return the search results (users) in a JSON format to be displayed on the page.
Controller Actions:
Create a controller action to handle the AJAX search and saving of associations.
JavaScript and AJAX:
You'll need to implement JavaScript code to handle the AJAX search and addition of owners on the property show page. This would involve making asynchronous requests to the controller actions and updating the page accordingly.
Remember that the details of the JavaScript implementation depend on your chosen libraries and design patterns.
Displaying Owners:
On the property show page, you can display the associated owners (users) with the property using the property.owners relationship. You can iterate over this collection to show the list of owners.
