Rails 中的 Twitter 模型关联

Question

我正在尝试在 Rails 中构建类似 twitter 的数据模型。这就是我想出的。

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :microposts, :dependent => :destroy
end

class Micropost < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :user
  has_many :mentions
  has_many :hashtags
end

class Mention< ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :micropost
end

class Hashtag < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :micropost
end

我应该在某处通过关联使用 has_many 还是这样准确？

编辑：最终的 twitter MVC 模型。

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :microposts, :dependent => :destroy

  userID
end

class Micropost < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :user

  has_many :link2mentions, :dependent => :destroy
  has_many :mentions, through: :link2mentions

  has_many :link2hashtags, :dependent => :destroy
  has_many :hashtags, through: :link2hashtags

  UserID
  micropostID
  content
end

class Link2mention < ActiveRecord::Base
    belongs_to :micropost
    belongs_to :mention

    linkID
    micropostID
    mentionID
end

class Mention < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :link2mentions, :dependent => :destroy
  has_many :microposts, through: :link2mentions

  mentionID
  userID
end

Answer 1

如果两个微博使用相同的主题标签，您可能不想为该主题标签创建两条数据库记录。在这种情况下，您将使用has_many through:

class Hashtagging < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :micropost
  belongs_to :hashtag
end

class Hashtag < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :hashtaggings
  has_many :microposts, through: :hashtaggings
end

class Micropost < ActiveRecord::Base
  ...
  has_many :hashtaggings
  has_many :hashtags, through: :hashtaggings
end

创建Hashtagging 迁移时，请确保它具有micropost_id 和hashtag_id 列。
