craic / meta_search_custom_column_sort.rb
Created June 10, 2011 17:53
This gist includes a Rails helper and controller code that lets you sort on custom columns alongside the meta-search gem search and sort features
# Helper method - place in application_helper.rb
def custom_sort_helper(path, sort_term, sort_label, search, sort_string)
uri = String.new(path)
# copy the current search terms but exclude meta_sort
search_array = Array.new
search.search_attributes.each { |key, val| (search_array << "search[#{key}]=#{val}") unless key == 'meta_sort' }
uri << '?'
