undefined method `map' for #<ActionController::Parameters> Rails 5.1

Question

I am upgrading my rails application from 3.2.2 to 5.1.4. I am gettign error on map method by using on params directly. Error:

undefined method `map' for ActionController::Parameters

On following line.

@assignments= params[:assignments].map {|_k, value| Assignment.new(value.merge assignment_params)}

Any alternative to do that in rails 5.1?

Answer 1

You can try to convert params to hash by using to_unsafe_h:

@assignments= params[:assignments].to_unsafe_h.map {|_k, value| Assignment.new(value.merge assignment_params)}

Alternatively, you can iterate over params with each:

@assignments=[]
params[:assignments].each{|(_k, value)| @assignments << Assignment.new(value.merge assignment_params)}
