Hi everyone!
I have a model (Document) which presents a non-table-column attribute
"review_required?". I need to be able to filter the input to hobo_index
and/or table-plus such that only the records with a true value are
displayed.
The review_required? attribute is a relatively complex function of the
children of the Document model that would be extremely tedious and
error-prone to replace with a pre-calculated table column.
What works:
hobo_index Document
and
<table-plus fields="this, review_required?" without-search-form param/>
Produces a nice list of documents
Document Review Required
doc 1 Yes
doc 3 No
doc 4 No
doc 6 Yes
etc.
So I am sure the review_required? attribute works.
What doesn't work:
I have tried numerous ways of filtering the output of Document.
Document.find(:all, :conditions=> ... ) doesn't work because
review_required is not field in the table.
Document.review_required(true) doesn't work because it doesn't recognize
the method review_required (its there).
I have tried many variations on this theme, including adding a second
method review_required without the ?, but all fail for the same reason.
Document.apply_scopes(:review_required => true) same failure, can't find
review_required. Grasping at straws here.
I used the output of Document.find(:all) to create an array of the
records that meet the criterion, but hobo_index fails because the array
is not a finder.
Help anyone! :-[
