Usage

Adds sorting support to Rails models.

To sort by a model field position:

  sortable :position
end

You can customize the sorting behavior by passing an options hash. The following keys are supported:

:order sorting direction, can be one of :asc or :desc, defaults to :asc

:step stepping value, only integers allowed, defaults to 500

:scope scopes, defines the ActiveRecord scope applied before calculating the position field value. Defaults to []

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
