From 92a603387c084f13a36bbf3844d89029bb73a753 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: sgrif Date: Fri, 17 May 2013 18:23:57 -0600 Subject: Add ability to specify how a class is converted to Arel predicate This adds the ability for rails apps or gems to have granular control over how a domain object is converted to sql. One simple use case would be to add support for Regexp. Another simple case would be something like the following: class DateRange < Struct.new(:start, :end) def include?(date) (start..end).cover?(date) end end class DateRangePredicate def call(attribute, range) attribute.in(range.start..range.end) end end ActiveRecord::PredicateBuilder.register_handler(DateRange, DateRangePredicate.new) More complex cases might include taking a currency object and converting it from EUR to USD before performing the query. By moving the existing handlers to this format, we were also able to nicely refactor a rather nasty method in PredicateBuilder. --- .../relation/predicate_builder/relation_handler.rb | 13 +++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+) create mode 100644 activerecord/lib/active_record/relation/predicate_builder/relation_handler.rb (limited to 'activerecord/lib/active_record/relation/predicate_builder/relation_handler.rb') diff --git a/activerecord/lib/active_record/relation/predicate_builder/relation_handler.rb b/activerecord/lib/active_record/relation/predicate_builder/relation_handler.rb new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..618fa3cdd9 --- /dev/null +++ b/activerecord/lib/active_record/relation/predicate_builder/relation_handler.rb @@ -0,0 +1,13 @@ +module ActiveRecord + class PredicateBuilder + class RelationHandler # :nodoc: + def call(attribute, value) + if value.select_values.empty? + value = value.select(value.klass.arel_table[value.klass.primary_key]) + end + + attribute.in(value.arel.ast) + end + end + end +end -- cgit v1.2.3
