Designing a registration with nested attributes does not create an association
I have User and Account models with has_one association and nested attributes.
My problem is that when registering a user through Devise, no account is created and no error is generated in the log. I am using Rails 3.2 with Devise 2.0.4.
user.rb
class User
include Mongoid::Document
has_one :account, :inverse_of => :user
accepts_nested_attributes_for :account
field :name
validates_presence_of :name
validates_uniqueness_of :name, :email, :case_sensitive => false
attr_accessible :name, :email, :password, :password_confirmation, :remember_me, :account_attributes
devise :database_authenticatable, :registerable,
:recoverable, :rememberable, :trackable, :validatable
...
end
account.rb
class Account
include Mongoid::Document
belongs_to :user, :inverse_of => :account
field :name
validates_presence_of :user
attr_accessible :name, :user_id
end
registration_controller.rb
class RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController
def new
resource = build_resource({})
resource.build_account
respond_with resource
end
end
view
<h2>Sign up</h2>
<%= form_for(resource, :as => resource_name, :url => registration_path(resource_name)) do |f| %>
<%= devise_error_messages! %>
<%= f.fields_for :account do |account_form| %>
<div><%= account_form.label 'Company' %>
<%= account_form.text_field :name %></div>
<% end %>
...
here is my console output

As you can see, I don't see anything about creating an Account . Also verified that the Account collection is not being created by browsing MongoDB. What am I missing? Thank you for your help in advance.

Solved a problem.
I needed to enable: autosave
has_one :account, :inverse_of => :user, :autosave => true
mongoid docs pointed out the problem.
Please note that the autosave option must be enabled for relational associations that use accepts_nested_attributes_for if you do not want to manually save the relationship on update.
