Rails Eager Loading on All Finds

Question

OK, I\'ve been playing around with some of the eager loading things, and have 2 models something like:

Class Recipe < ActiveRecord::Base
    belongs_to :c         


        

Answer 1

You should be able to do this with named scopes, but I understand that there were a number of possible bugs with that, hopefully they are all fixed now.

Answer 2

I've been using default_scope to do it on selected models where I always want to eager load:

class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :comments
  default_scope :include => :comments, :order => ["title ASC"]
  ...
end
