Create a many_through_many association. Arguments:

  • name - Same as associate, the name of the association.
  • through - The tables and keys to join between the current table and the associated table. Must be an array, with elements that are either 3 element arrays, or hashes with keys :table, :left, and :right. The required entries in the array/hash are:
    :table (first array element) :The name of the table to join.
    :left (middle array element) :The key joining the table to the previous table. Can use an array of symbols for a composite key association.
    :right (last array element) :The key joining the table to the next table. Can use an array of symbols for a composite key association.

    If a hash is provided, the following keys are respected when using eager_graph:

    :block :A proc to use as the block argument to join.
    :conditions :Extra conditions to add to the JOIN ON clause. Must be a hash or array of two pairs.
    :join_type :The join type to use for the join, defaults to :left_outer.
    :only_conditions :Conditions to use for the join instead of the ones specified by the keys.
  • opts - The options for the associaion. Takes the same options as many_to_many.
