Maybe you could make it happen with the :select and :table parameters to make the data type look like a table/std AR object? # :select - By default, this is "*" as in "SELECT * FROM", but can be changed if you, for example, want to do a join but not include the joined columns. Takes a string with the SELECT SQL fragment (e.g. "id, name"). # :from - By default, this is the table name of the class, but can be changed to an alternate table name (or even the name of a database view).
Or, does postgres have views? Could you create a view that for the data type and returns what looks like a std table result and use that?
