Give Each User A Friends List With Rails Associations - Ruby On Rails Friend List App #8

In this video I'll show you how to create friend lists for each logged in user by using Rails Associations.
Rails Associations allow us to associate different tables of our database together. It allows us to say, hey...this friend belongs to this user; and this user has many friends.
Database Table Associations with Rails are really easy to do, and you'll learn how to do them in this video!

what if someone inspects the page changes the id value, and submits, does it add a friend to another user?

[@CharlesDv]

You should assign the current user id inside the controller or model instead of as a hidden input. Thanks.

[@chokopepites6295]

yeah, you' re right, in the method create :
"
@friend = Friend.new(friend_params)
@friend.user_id = current_user.id "
Cleanest and more secure

[@robertmasters01]

would you be able to show how a sorting feature would work with ruby on rails, with say sort by first name in alphabetical order?
