Doesn't save tags passed as associations after upgrading to 6.0.0

[Hirurg103]

Hello,

in our project we assign tags the following way:

tag = ActsAsTaggableOn::Tag.create! name: 'people'

Article.create! title: 'Title', content: 'Text', tags: [tag]
#or
Article.create! title: 'Title', content: 'Text', tags_ids: [tag.id]

Especially we have many pieces like this in our tests.

After upgrade from AATO 5.0.0 to 6.0.0 it started to fail with

ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid:
  Validation failed: Tag taggings is invalid

Seems like that tagging cannot be saved because context is blank. Should it save tags passed to tags association with DEFAULT_CONTEXT = 'tags' by default?

If it should could you please confirm and fix it, otherwise I need to change the way we assign tags in our code

Thank you!

I am upgrading from 5.00 to 6.00 version and I have the same issue.

How did you solve it @Hirurg103 ?

[jackbit]

Don't specify config.load_defaults <rails_v>

in application.rb

You can also remove the validator for the taggable association:

# config/initializers/aato.rb

chain = ActsAsTaggableOn::Tagging.send(:get_callbacks, :validate)
callback = chain.find{|cb| cb.filter.attributes == [:taggable]}
chain.delete(callback)

Works on rails 5.1 with aato 7.0.0
