How to use `after_update' callback in rails?

I want to use after_update callback method for a method, which updates the product's stock in shopping cart application. The code in controller is:
ProductsController.rb:



  def update
order = current_order
@order_item = order.order_items.find(params[:id])
@order_item.product.save
end


And in ProudctModel:



 after_update :remove_stock
def remove_stock
puts "this is #{order_items}"
order_items.collect do |oi|
puts "this is product id: #{oi.product.id}"

end
end


However, on running the above the log is as follows:



order items product: 1
order items product: 1
order items product: 1
order items product: 1
order items product: 1
order items product: 1
order items product: 1
order items product: 1
order items product: 1
order items product: 1
order items product: 1
order items product: 1


Why is this showing so many product_ids, when there is only one product present in order_item?



PS: My associations are as follows:



product has_many order_items



order_items belongs_to order



order has_many order_items



What am I missing ?
Please help.
Thanks inadvance.

  • you're printing order items id instead of product id, if I'm not wrong

  • Yes sorry about that. But my real question is, why is it looping through so many times? Even when I changed it to product.id, it is print the id as many times as shown in the question. Why so ?

  • because you're looping over all the order_items, order_items.collect do |oi|
    – Ravi Mariya

  • I checked it. There is only one order_item in order_items.

 after_update :remove_stock
def remove_stock
puts "this is product id: #{self.id}"
end


since you're in Product model itself, you have access to the Product object
