Accessing rails flash[:notice] in a model
- by titaniumdecoy
I am trying to assign a message to flash[:notice] in a model observer.
This question has already been asked: Ruby on Rails: Observers and flash[:notice] messages?
However, I get the following error message when I try to access it in my model:
undefined local variable or method `flash' for #<ModelObserver:0x2c1742c>
Here is my code:
class ModelObserver < ActiveRecord::Observer
observe A, B, C
def after_save(model)
puts "Model saved"
flash[:notice] = "Model saved"
end
end
I know the method is being called because "Model saved" is printed to the terminal.
Is it possible to access the flash inside an observer, and if so, how?
