Hi all,
I need some hints and suggestions on setting up a correct self-
reference table relationship.
The database is populated externally with text data, and I want to use
only this data to declare the parent-child relationship.
Assuming we have following pseudo structure for a person. It also
includes the name of the mother as "first_name last_name"
class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
hobo_model
fields do
first_name :string
last_name :string
mother :string
end
belongs_to :mother
has_many :childs, :finder_sql => "select * from persons where mother =
"#{first_name} #{last_name}""
Would be nice to get some ideas, hopefully circumventing a has_many
childs :through parentship relationship!
Thanks,
Sebastian
