Select receive custom value in Rails

Question

I own a select in my form:

<%= form.select :status, options_for_select([ ["Ativo", 0], ["Inativo", 1] ]), {include_blank: "Selecione ..."}, class: "form-control", required: true %>

To include a new record, my code works, only when I click the button to change the product, my select, does not receive the value of the database.

Example: Certain product, is with the value = 1, so when I click the change, it should be with the value = "Inactive".

Answer 1

It should automatically pick up the same model you’re using. You’re using Enum for that status column? Maybe that’s it.To solve the problem you can add the config selected

<%= form.select :status, 
      options_for_select(
        [ ["Ativo", 0], ["Inativo", 1] ],
        { selected: form.object.status }
      ), 
      {include_blank: "Selecione ..."}, 
      class: "form-control", 
      required: true %>
