How to Properly Configure Rails 4.1 Enums in ActiveAdmin

Question

I\'ve got a Rails 4.1 app in which I use an enum to represent the privacy level of an object.

In my schema:

t.integer \"privacy_level\", default: 0
         


        

Answer 1

In order to use enums in ActiveAdmin's filters use:

filter :level, as: :select, collection: Model.levels

assuming an enum attribute named level

This will make sure to actually put the integer value in the query and not the key name.
