The results will # be returned as an array with columns requested encapsulated as attributes of the model you call # this method from. If you call Product.find_by_sql then the results will be returned in # a Product object with the attributes you specified in the SQL query. # # If you call a complicated SQL query which spans multiple tables the columns specified by the # SELECT will be attributes of the model, whether or not they are columns of the corresponding # table. # # The +sql+ parameter is a full SQL query as a string. It will be called as is, there will be # no database agnostic conversions performed. This should be a last resort because using, for example, # MySQL specific terms will lock you to using that particular database engine or require you to # change your call if you switch engines. # # ==== Examples # # A simple SQL query spanning multiple tables # Post.find_by_sql "SELECT p.title, c.author FROM posts p, comments c WHERE p.id = c.post_id" # > [#"Ruby Meetup", "first_name"=>"Quentin"}>, ...] # # # You can use the same string replacement techniques as you can with ActiveRecord#find # Post.find_by_sql ["SELECT title FROM posts WHERE author = ? AND created > ?", author_id, start_date] # > [#"The Cheap Man Buys Twice"}>, ...] def find_by_sql(sql, binds = []) logging_query_plan do connection.select_all(sanitize_sql(sql), "#{name} Load", binds).collect! { |record| instantiate(record) } end end # Returns the result of an SQL statement that should only include a COUNT(*) in the SELECT part. # The use of this method should be restricted to complicated SQL queries that can't be executed # using the ActiveRecord::Calculations class methods. Look into those before using this. # # ==== Parameters # # * +sql+ - An SQL statement which should return a count query from the database, see the example below. # # ==== Examples # # Product.count_by_sql "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM sales s, customers c WHERE s.customer_id = c.id" def count_by_sql(sql) sql = sanitize_conditions(sql) connection.select_value(sql, "#{name} Count").to_i end end end
