Rails has_many with dynamic conditions
Rails 4+ way (Thanks to Thomas who answered this below):
has_many :faixas_aliquotas, -> (object) {
where("regra_fiscal = ?", object.regra_fiscal)
},
:class_name => 'Fiscal::FaixaAliquota'
Rails 3.1+ way:
has_many :faixas_aliquotas, :class_name => 'Fiscal::FaixaAliquota',
:conditions => proc { "regra_fiscal = #{self.regra_fiscal}" }
Rails 3 and below:
has_many :faixas_aliquotas, :class_name => 'Fiscal::FaixaAliquota',
:conditions => ['regra_fiscal = #{self.regra_fiscal}']
No. This is not a mistake. The conditions are specified in single quotes and still contains the code #{self.regra_fiscal}
. When the conditions clause is evaulated, the regra_fiscal method will be called on the object of self
(whatever the class is). Putting double quotes will not work.
I hope this is what you are looking for.
Rails 4+ way:
has_many :faixas_aliquotas,
-> (object){ where("regra_fiscal = ?", object.regra_fiscal)},
:class_name => 'Fiscal::FaixaAliquota'
There is another kind of solution. However, this wont be the default scope.
has_many :faixas_aliquotas, :class_name => 'Fiscal::FaixaAliquota' do
def filter(situacao_fiscal)
find(:all, :conditions => {:regra_fiscal => situacao_fiscal.regra_fiscal})
end
end
This way you would be able to do
situacao_fiscal.faixas_aliquotas.filter(situacao_fiscal)
I am not sure if this is elegant and something that would solve your problem. There may be better ways of doing this.
Rails 4+ another way:
has_many :faixas_aliquotas, -> (object){ where(regra_fiscal: object.regra_fiscal) }, :class_name => 'Fiscal::FaixaAliquota'
