Instance Method Details

#acts_as_nested_set(options = {}) ⇒ Object

Configuration options are:

  • :parent_column - specifies the column name to use for keeping the position integer (default: parent_id)

  • :primary_column - specifies the column name to use as the inverse of the parent column (default: id)

  • :left_column - column name for left boundry data, default “lft”

  • :right_column - column name for right boundry data, default “rgt”

  • :depth_column - column name for the depth data, default “depth”

  • :scope - restricts what is to be considered a list. Given a symbol, it’ll attach “_id” (if it hasn’t been already) and use that as the foreign key restriction. You can also pass an array to scope by multiple attributes. Example: acts_as_nested_set :scope => [:notable_id, :notable_type]

  • :dependent - behavior for cascading destroy. If set to :destroy, all the child objects are destroyed alongside this object by calling their destroy method. If set to :delete_all (default), all the child objects are deleted without calling their destroy method.

  • :counter_cache adds a counter cache for the number of children. defaults to false. Example: acts_as_nested_set :counter_cache => :children_count

  • :order_column on which column to do sorting, by default it is the left_column_name Example: acts_as_nested_set :order_column => :position
