I have this example code which raises a "Duplicate Expection". Instead, I want just to skip if a duplicate exists.



(1..10).each do |page|
group.products << [id: 1, title: "Example A", id: 2, title: "Example B"]
group.save
end


The product array is static just for this example, what matter is that it has ID's, so products exist in the database.



The problem is when I assign a product that I have already assigned in the past which raise a "Not Unique exception". In this scenario, I would just skip the association. How is that possible?

          You could use create_with in combination with find_or_create_by:



          (1..10).each do |page|
          group.products << Product.create_with(title: "Example A").find_or_create_by(id: 1)
          group.products << Product.create_with(title: "Example B").find_or_create_by(id: 2)
          group.save
          end

            You are assigning the same dynamic array of objects to group.products in a ten times loop which is creating duplicates. Why are you not running this without a loop? I don't think so there is a need for a loop.
