Adding search to Casein

gistfile1.txt

For example, to add search-by-email to a model called User

in views/casein/users/index.html.erb

<%= content_for :sidebar do %>
	<li>
		<%= form_tag casein_users_path, {:method => 'get'} do %>
			<div class='form-group'>
				<small><%= label_tag "search", "Search by email", {:class => "control-label"} %></small>
				<%= text_field_tag "search", params[:search], {:class => "form-control", :size => "100%"} %>
			</div>
		<% end %>
	</li>
<% end %>

in controllers/casein/users_controller.rb, expand index to be:

 def index

  if params[:search]
    @casein_page_title = "Users (search for: #{params[:search]})"
    @users = User.where(User.arel_table[:email].matches("%#{params[:search]}%")).order(sort_order("created_at")).paginate :page => params[:page]
  else
    @casein_page_title = 'Users'
    @users = User.order(sort_order(:created_at)).paginate :page => params[:page]
  end
end
