OrderOrder
Simple extensions to ActiveRecord for common 'order' queries
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'order_order'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install order_order
Usage
This gem adds the following class methods to ActiveRecord::Base
:
::chronological # Order records by date, with the newest records first.
::reverse_chronological # Order records by date, with the oldest records first.
::alphabetical # Order records alphabetically.
::reverse_alphabetical # Order records reverse alphabetically.
By default, the 'chronological' methods sort by the created_at
column, and
the 'alphabetical' methods look for a column called name
to sort by. To
override this, pass the column name to the methods:
Post.alphabetical("title") # => ActiveRecord::Relation
Comment.reverse_chronological("time") # => ActiveRecord::Relation
There is also a finder method called since
:
user_0 = User.create(created_at: 5.days.ago)
user_1 = User.create(created_at: 3.days.ago)
user_2 = User.create(created_at: 2.days.ago)
new_users = User.since(4.days.ago)
new_users.include?(user_0) # => false
new_users.include?(user_1) # => true
new_users.include?(user_2) # => true
