Hi,
I've just discovered the "named_scope" method which seems great. I'm
wondering there is any reason why you wouldn't always use a named scope (to
get the advantages), over a custom method on your model to return an array
of records?
That is using:
class Shirt < ActiveRecord::Base
named_scope :red, :conditions => {:color => 'red'}
end
instead of
class Shirt < ActiveRecord::Base
def red
Shirt.find_all_by_color('red')
end
end
Comments?
