Rails not save data in DB (with Angular)

Question

I have problem with save data in DB. This is my orders_controller:

def create
    order = meal.build_order(order_params)
    respond_with order
end

Function in orders factory:

o.create = function(order) {
    return $http.post('/orders.json', order).success(function(data){
      console.log(data);
      o.orders.push(data);
    });
};

Call orders.create in ordersCtrl (in angular controller)

if (!angular.isUndefined($scope.meal)) {
    orders.create({
      meal_id: $scope.meal.id,
      status: "ordered",
    });
}

What can be wrong with that code? When I've wrote order.save in Rails controller - order has been saved.

Your question is misleading. the title says Rails not save data in DB but then you explicitly say in the description When I've wrote order.save in Rails controller - order has been saved.. which one is it? — MilesStanfield

From the docs:

build_association(attributes = {})

Returns a new object of the associated type that has been instantiated with attributes and linked to this object through a foreign key, but has not yet been saved.

So basically when you use build_order it is not saving it (and this is how rails works). You could use create_order.
