Ruby Question
Rails 4.2.1: Cannot create record
today I tried creating a new model like usual I created my controller first:
rails g controller Newsletters
Then I created my model:
rails g model Newsletter
Then I updated my migration:
class CreateNewsletters < ActiveRecord::Migration
def change
create_table :newsletters do |t|
t.string :subject
t.text :message
t.string :recipient
t.boolean :send, default: false
t.timestamps null: false
end
end
end
Finally I ran my migration:
rake db:migrate
I setup my controller:
class NewslettersController < ApplicationController
def index
@newsletters = Newsletter.all
end
def show
@newsletter = Newsletter.find_by(id: params[:id])
end
def new
@newletter = Newsletter.new
end
def create
@newletter = Newsletter.new(newsletter_params)
if @newsletter.save
flash[:success] = "Newsletter saved"
redirect_to newletter_path
else
render 'new'
end
end
def edit
end
def update
end
def destroy
newsletter = Newsletter.find_by(id: params[:id]).destroy
flash[:success] = "Successfully destroyed"
end
private
def newsletter_params
params.require(:newsletter).permit(:subject, :message, :recipient, :send)
end
end
Now here is the problem. When I try to create a record in the console I get this error:
irb(main):001:0> newsletter = Newsletter.create(subject: "test", message: "test test", recipient: "all")
ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (given 2, expected 0)

What I tried this far:
- I rolled everything back and removed all files generated and did it all by hand again.
- I install the bundle again in case something is outdated
I don't really get what the error is so if someone could help me I would appreciate it a lot.
PS: I have read on github that it could be a problem with the "rb-fsevent" gem but my logs dont show the same thing:
https://github.com/guard/listen/issues/431
UPDATE:
My Newsletter model
class Newsletter < ActiveRecord::Base
end
PS: I am running ruby 2.3.0

send is a Ruby method and it leads to problems when you have an attribute with the same name.
Just rename that column to something else - like email_send or was_send and you will be fine.
