I'm working on app in Ruby on Rails (5.1.4)- I've recently created scaffold for user with 2 parameters- Username and Name. After some time I changed Username for Index. Now there's a problem with creating new User. Obviously- in every model, controller, etc. I know there's Username- I changed it for Index. The question is- can I do this? Or should I create new scaffold with right parameters? If so- how do I do this? I don't want to lose my work with controllers and views.
So here's how I created scaffold:
rails generate scaffold Student index:string name:string
That's an error I'm getting every time when I try to create new user:
And the changes I made:
app/models/user.rb
class User < ApplicationRecord
has_and_belongs_to_many :movies, :join_table => :users_movies
has_many :topics
has_many :posts
has_secure_password
validates :name, presence: true, uniqueness: true, length: { in: 3..50 }
validates :index, presence: true, length: { is: 6 }, uniqueness: true
validates :password, presence: true, length: { minimum: 6 }
def follows?(movie)
self.movies.include?(movie)
end
end

# This file is auto-generated from the current state of the database. Instead

# Note that this schema.rb definition is the authoritative source for your
# database schema. If you need to create the application database on another
