Rails, search item in different model?
I have a kase model which I am using a simple search form in. The problem I am having is some kases are linked to companies through a company model, and people through a people model.
At the moment my search (in Kase model) looks like this:
# SEARCH FACILITY
def self.search(search)
search_condition = "%" + search + "%"
find(:all, :conditions => ['jobno LIKE ? OR casesubject LIKE ? OR transport LIKE ? OR goods LIKE ? OR comments LIKE ? OR invoicenumber LIKE ? OR netamount LIKE ? OR clientref LIKE ? OR kase_status LIKE ? OR lyingatlocationaddresscity LIKE ?', search_condition, search_condition, search_condition, search_condition, search_condition, search_condition, search_condition, search_condition, search_condition, search_condition])
end
What I am trying to work out, is what condition can I add to allow a search by Company or Person to show the cases they are linked to.
@kase.company.companyname
and
company.companyname
don't work :(
Is this possible?
Thanks,
Danny
EDIT:
find(:all, :conditions => ["kase.jobno LIKE :q OR kase.casesubject LIKE :q OR kase.transport LIKE :q OR company.companyname LIKE :q OR person.personname LIKE :q", {:q => search_condition}])
Like that?
EDIT 2:
kase model:
class Kase < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :company # foreign key: company_id
belongs_to :person # foreign key in join table
belongs_to :surveyor,
:class_name => "Company",
:foreign_key => "appointedsurveyor_id"
belongs_to :surveyorperson,
:class_name => "Person",
:foreign_key => "surveyorperson_id"
kase controller:
# SEARCH FACILITY
def self.search(search)
search_condition = "%" + search + "%"
find(:all, :conditions => ['jobno LIKE ? OR casesubject LIKE ? OR transport LIKE ? OR goods LIKE ? OR comments LIKE ? OR invoicenumber LIKE ? OR netamount LIKE ? OR clientref LIKE ? OR kase_status LIKE ? OR lyingatlocationaddresscity LIKE ?', search_condition, search_condition, search_condition, search_condition, search_condition, search_con开发者_Go百科dition, search_condition, search_condition, search_condition, search_condition])
# find(:all, :conditions => ["kases.jobno LIKE :q OR kases.casesubject LIKE :q OR kases.transport LIKE :q OR kases.goods LIKE :q OR kases.comments LIKE :q OR kases.clientref LIKE :q OR kases.kase_status LIKE :q OR kases.lyingatlocationaddresscity LIKE :q OR companies.companyname LIKE :q OR people.personname LIKE :q", {:q => search_condition}], :join => [:person, :company])
end
You probably want to use the :joins => [:company, :person]
option and then rewrite the :conditions
to 'kase.jobno LIKE ? ... company.companyname LIKE ? ...'
.
So:
find(:all, :conditions => ["kases.jobno LIKE :q OR kases.casesubject LIKE :q OR kases.transport LIKE :q OR companies.companyname LIKE :q OR people.personname LIKE :q", {:q => search_condition}], :joins => [:person, :company])
