In rails 4.0.2, I am trying to use a search plugin called dusen. Using this, I can search same model's values but I am not able to search other(associated) model values. How can I achieve this for single association(has_one / belongs_to) & multi association(has_many) model values?
Reference link:
https://github.com/makandra/dusen
Gem which I am using is dusen (0.4.10)
In controller,
#query = params[:query] || ""
Contact.search(#query)
In model,
belongs_to :city, :class_name=>"City"
search_syntax do
search_by :text do |scope, phrases|
columns = [:name, :contact_number, :email]
scope.where_like(columns => phrases)
end
end
Here, It will search only :name, :contact_number, :email fields, if i try to add below piece of code then it will show an error like undefined method 'search_text' for #<Dusen::Description:0xb438a248>
search_text do
[city.name]
end
Please suggest a solution for this issue.
Assuming your model name is 'User', you'd set it up as follows:
# User.rb
belongs_to :city, :class_name=>"City"
search_syntax do
search_by :text do |scope, phrases|
# namespaced fields to search by.
columns = ["users.name", "users.contact_number", "users.email", "cities.name"]
# specify association to City in scope.
scope.joins(:city).where_like(columns => phrases)
end
end
I hope this helps!

I'm new to rails, and I'm currently trying to develop an API based app using Rails 5, on one of my controllers I have a function to filter the allow parameters like so
def provider_params
params.require(:provider).permit(:name, :phone, :email, :website, :address, :provider_id, :bio, :specialty_ids => [])
end
Then posting from Paw I noticed that the arguments that are not attributes of the table are no included in provider_params, the parameter I'm supposed to receive is an array, which is defined by a HABTM relation-ship.
This is how my models look like
specialty.rb
class Specialty < ApplicationRecord
has_and_belongs_to_many :providers
end
provider.rb
class Provider < ApplicationRecord
has_and_belongs_to_many :specialties
end
And this is how the join table was created via migration
class CreateProvidersSpecialties < ActiveRecord::Migration[5.0]
def change
create_table :providers_specialties, :id => false do |t|
t.integer :provider_id
t.integer :specialty_id
end
add_index :providers_specialties, :provider_id
add_index :providers_specialties, :specialty_id
end
end
The JSON I'm posting
{
"name": "the name",
"specialty_ids": [
1,
2
]
}
So as I mentioned, the array specialty_ids doesn't seem to be coming through, and even if it did, I suspect there's still something else I need to do in order for rails to insert the content of specialty_ids in the ProvidersSpecialties Table
So the problem was finally solved by removing the requir call from the method provider_params, since I wasn't wrapping the json-payload in a provider key. Apparently once you add the require(:key) call you would only be able to add parameters that belong to the Model, which is weird since an error should be raised when the key is not present, what was the case with my payload, lacking the provider key.
I want to dry up my models; but Sunspot only allows one(1) "searchable" block in a model. making 2 just ignores the second one. Failed Example below:
digital.rb
class Digital < ActiveRecord::Base
include BaseConcerns
belongs_to :digitable, polymorphic: true
# IGNORES THIS
searchable do
string :url
text :url
string :remark
text :remark
end
end
base_concerns.rb
module BaseConcerns extend ActiveSupport::Concern
included do
before_create{
self.id = UUIDTools::UUID.timestamp_create().to_s.downcase if id.blank?
}
self.primary_key = 'id'
# DOES THIS
searchable do
text :id
time :created_at
time :updated_at
end
end
end
I want to DRY up my models using some concern and want some similarly named columns to be searchable; while others I can just specify; how can I do this?
I am running Ruby 2.1 and Mongoid 5.0 (no Rails).
I want to track on a before_save callback whether or not an embedded field has changed.
I can use the document.attribute_changed? or document.changed methods to check normal fields, but somehow these don't work on relations (embed_one, has_one, etc).
Is there a way of detecting these changes before saving the document?
My model is something like this
class Company
include Mongoid::Document
include Mongoid::Attributes::Dynamic
field :name, type: String
#...
embeds_one :address, class_name: 'Address', inverse_of: :address
#...
before_save :activate_flags
def activate_flags
if self.changes.include? 'address'
#self.changes never includes "address"
end
if self.address_changed?
#This throws an exception
end
end
One example of how I save my document is:
#...
company.address = AddressUtilities.parse address
company.save
#After this, the callback is triggered, but self.changes is empty...
#...
I have read the documentation and Google the hell out of it, but I can't find a solution?
I have found this gem, but it's old and doesn't work with the newer versions of Mongoid. I want to check if there is another way of doing it before considering on trying to fix/pull request the gem...
Adding these two methods to your Model and calling get_embedded_document_changes should provide you an hash with the changes to all its embedded documents:
def get_embedded_document_changes
data = {}
relations.each do |name, relation|
next unless [:embeds_one, :embeds_many].include? relation.macro.to_sym
# only if changes are present
child = send(name.to_sym)
next unless child
next if child.previous_changes.empty?
child_data = get_previous_changes_for_model(child)
data[name] = child_data
end
data
end
def get_previous_changes_for_model(model)
data = {}
model.previous_changes.each do |key, change|
data[key] = {:from => change[0], :to => change[1]}
end
data
end

I am just learning Ruby and datamapper, I have read the docs about associations from the official DataMapper site, but I still have two problems.
First whenever I add associated object, I can not see it when displaying all objects.
I have test class like:
class Test
include DataMapper::Resource
property :id, Serial
property :name, String
has 1, :phonen, :through => Resource
end
And then phonen class like:
class Phonen
include DataMapper::Resource
property :id, Serial
property :number, String
belongs_to :test
end
Then I am creating those 2 objects
#test = Test.create(
:name => "Name here"
)
#phone = Phonen.create(
:number => "Phone number"
)
#test.phonen = #phone
#test.save
And I want to display them like that (I want to return json)
get '/' do
Test.all.to_json
end
What am I doing wrong? maybe its something with the to_json...
I honestly don't know..
But I have one additional question to this topic, lets say I managed to connect those two classes, if I display JSON will I get Phonen { } or just inside class { }?
I know its probably very easy question, but I can't figure it out. That's why I decided to ask you guys. Thanks for help
Test.all
Is returning an active record association in array form, not a hash, when you try to convert to json it's failing.
You can try:
render json: Test.all
As asked in this question:

I have a mongoid model
class MyMongoidModel
include Mongoid::Document
include Mongoid::Timestamps
field :name, :type => String
field :data_id, :type => Integer
has_and_belongs_to_many :the_other_model, :class_name => 'class_name_model'
has_many :model2
def self.all
[
#.... the hardcoded data that will never be changed
]
end
end
it's used by the other model and it uses them as well. However, it contains the data that won't be changed for a very long time, let's say, at all. Thus, I don't want to retrieve it from db, I want it to be hardcoded and, at the same time, I want it acts like a normal mongoid model. Using caching is not what I'm looking for.
I hope you understand what I mean.
How do accomplish it?
There's a great gem called active_hash that provides this functionality for ActiveRecord: defining a fixed set of data as models you can reference/relate to normal models, but have it defined in code and loaded in memory (not stored/retrieved from DB).
https://github.com/zilkey/active_hash
Interestingly, since Mongoid and ActiveRecord both share common ActiveModel basis, you may be able to use active_hash with a Mongoid document now.
For example:
class Country < ActiveHash::Base
self.data = [
{:id => 1, :name => "US"},
{:id => 2, :name => "Canada"}
]
end
class Order
include Mongoid::Document
include Mongoid::Timestamps
has_one :country
end
