class RelatedList < ActiveRecord::Base
extend Enumerize
enumerize :list_type, in: %w(groups projects)
belongs_to :content
has_many :contents, :order =&g
Alternatively, you can put the order
clause on the model, for instance:
has_many :options, order: 'name' # In class Answer
Becomes
has_many :options # In class Answer
default_scope { order 'name' } # In class Option
PS: I got ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments (1 for 0)
when doing has_many :things, -> {}
.
This works for me with Rails 4 & MongoDB
has_many :discounts, order: :min_amount.asc
It took me a while to figure out how to do order and include, I eventually found that you chain the scope statements,
has_many :things, -> { includes(:stuff).order("somedate desc") }, class_name: "SomeThing"
In Rails 4, :order
has been deprecated and needs to be replaced with lambda scope block as shown in the warning you've posted in the question. Another point to note is that this scope block needs to be passed before any other association options such as dependent: :destroy
etc.
Give this a try:
has_many :contents, -> { order(:position) }
To specify order direction, i.e. either asc
or desc
as @joshua-coady and @wsprujit have suggested, use:
has_many :contents, -> { order 'position desc' }
or, using the hash style:
has_many :contents, -> { order(position: :desc) }
Further reference on Active Record Scopes for has_many.
Just thought I'd add that if you have any option hash arguments, they have to go after the lambda, like this:
has_many :things, -> { order :stuff }, dependent: :destroy
Took me a minute to figure this out myself - hopefully it helps anyone else coming to this question having the same problem.
