defining multiple state params from different factories

[justwes2]

We have a page where I want to add an instances of attendances, our join table. The function is called on an event page, and the user selects from a dropdown of students. I'm trying to figure out how to define the student ID by the dropdown selection and the event ID by the event page. What I have so far is:

this.addAttendance = function() {
        let attendance = {
          student_id: this.student.id,
          event_id: this.event.id
        }
      }

but that's erroring out at this.student= StudentFactory.query({id: $stateParams.id}); saying that query is expecting an array but getting an object. I'm not sure how to identify the student based on the selection in the dropdown menu.

Actually, only if you have include :event on your back end in the create method of your attendance controller does the second change make sense.

console.log(attendance) in the callback. we need more information here

          $state.go("eventShow", {id: event.id})
          // change to
          $state.go("eventShow", {id: attendance.event_id})

Ran the console log, nothing popped, so the addAttendance function isn't even touched.

How come the function isn't attached?

Can we close this issue and open up a new dedicated issue "Creating a new Attendance in ShowEventController"?

Sure.
