module ActiveRecord
module NamedScope
# All subclasses of ActiveRecord::Base have two named \scopes:
# * <tt>all</tt> - which is similar to a <tt>find(:all)</tt> query, and
# * <tt>scoped</tt> - which allows for the creation of anonymous \scopes, on the fly: <tt>Shirt.scoped(:conditions => {:color => 'red'}).scoped(:include => :washing_instructions)</tt>
#
# These anonymous \scopes tend to be useful when procedurally generating complex queries, where passing
# intermediate values (scopes) around as first-class objects is convenient.
def self.included(base)
base.class_eval do
extend ClassMethods
named_scope :scoped, lambda { |scope| scope }
end
end
module ClassMethods
def scopes
read_inheritable_attribute(:scopes) || write_inheritable_attribute(:scopes, {})
end
# Adds a class method for retrieving and querying objects. A scope represents a narrowing of a database query,
# such as <tt>:conditions => {:color => :red}, :select => 'shirts.*', :include => :washing_instructions</tt>.
#
# class Shirt < ActiveRecord::Base
# named_scope :red, :conditions => {:color => 'red'}
# named_scope :dry_clean_only, :joins => :washing_instructions, :conditions => ['washing_instructions.dry_clean_only = ?', true]
# end
#
# The above calls to <tt>named_scope</tt> define class methods Shirt.red and Shirt.dry_clean_only. Shirt.red,
# in effect, represents the query <tt>Shirt.find(:all, :conditions => {:color => 'red'})</tt>.
#
# Unlike <tt>Shirt.find(...)</tt>, however, the object returned by Shirt.red is not an Array; it resembles the association object
# constructed by a <tt>has_many</tt> declaration. For instance, you can invoke <tt>Shirt.red.find(:first)</tt>, <tt>Shirt.red.count</tt>,
# <tt>Shirt.red.find(:all, :conditions => {:size => 'small'})</tt>. Also, just
# as with the association objects, named \scopes act like an Array, implementing Enumerable; <tt>Shirt.red.each(&block)</tt>,
# <tt>Shirt.red.first</tt>, and <tt>Shirt.red.inject(memo, &block)</tt> all behave as if Shirt.red really was an Array.
#
# These named \scopes are composable. For instance, <tt>Shirt.red.dry_clean_only</tt> will produce all shirts that are both red and dry clean only.
# Nested finds and calculations also work with these compositions: <tt>Shirt.red.dry_clean_only.count</tt> returns the number of garments
# for which these criteria obtain. Similarly with <tt>Shirt.red.dry_clean_only.average(:thread_count)</tt>.
#
# All \scopes are available as class methods on the ActiveRecord::Base descendent upon which the \scopes were defined. But they are also available to
# <tt>has_many</tt> associations. If,
#
# class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
# has_many :shirts
# end
#
# then <tt>elton.shirts.red.dry_clean_only</tt> will return all of Elton's red, dry clean
# only shirts.
#
# Named \scopes can also be procedural:
#
# class Shirt < ActiveRecord::Base
# named_scope :colored, lambda { |color|
# { :conditions => { :color => color } }
# }
# end
#
# In this example, <tt>Shirt.colored('puce')</tt> finds all puce shirts.
#
# Named \scopes can also have extensions, just as with <tt>has_many</tt> declarations:
#
# class Shirt < ActiveRecord::Base
# named_scope :red, :conditions => {:color => 'red'} do
# def dom_id
# 'red_shirts'
# end
# end
# end
#
#
# For testing complex named \scopes, you can examine the scoping options using the
# <tt>proxy_options</tt> method on the proxy itself.
#
# class Shirt < ActiveRecord::Base
# named_scope :colored, lambda { |color|
# { :conditions => { :color => color } }
# }
# end
#
# expected_options = { :conditions => { :colored => 'red' } }
# assert_equal expected_options, Shirt.colored('red').proxy_options
