ruby - Trouble accessing column value rails console -

i'm trying access integer stored in column called totalvotes in uservotes table maintain getting no method error

i have been trying debug console:

1.9.3-p327 :006 > uservote = uservote.where("soundcloud_id = 68061927") uservote load (0.2ms) select "user_votes".* "user_votes" (soundcloud_id = 68061927) => [#<uservote id: 5, user_id: "1", party_profile_id: "1", soundcloud_id: "68061927", totalvotes: 0, created_at: "2013-02-19 04:57:58", updated_at: "2013-02-19 04:57:58">]

good far...

1.9.3-p327 :007 > uservote.totalvotes nomethoderror: undefined method `totalvotes' #<activerecord::relation:0x007febb49ab350>

then breaks , i'm not sure why. best way me access totalvotes value?

your issue you're calling .totalvotes ar relation. phone call .first first should have no problem.

>> uservote = uservote.where("soundcloud_id = 68061927").first >> uservote.totalvotes
