Continuing along this thread... I'm interested in creating a SCOPE in the project model (project.rb) that returns all the project's members (bassed on the permissions table <> users & role tables.
Desired output: user.name, role.name Here's my scope in the model, which isn't returning the desired output: class Project < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :permissions has_many :users, :through => :permissions #Playing with Scopes scope :teammembers, Project.permissions.joins(:users, :roles) end trying to figure out how to get the output with ActiveRecord.
