apply_constraints_to_record(record, options = {}) click to toggle source

Applies constraints to the given record.

Searches through the known columns for association columns. If the given constraint is an association, it assumes that the constraint value is an id. It then does a association.klass.find with the value and adds the associated object to the record.

For some operations ActiveRecord will automatically update the database. That’s not always ok. If it is ok (e.g. you’re in a transaction), then set :allow_autosave to true.

# File lib/active_scaffold/constraints.rb, line 141

  options[:allow_autosave] = false if options[:allow_autosave].nil?

  active_scaffold_constraints.each do |k, v|
    column = active_scaffold_config.columns[k]
    if column and column.association
      if column.plural_association?
        record.send("#{k}").send(:<<, column.association.klass.find(v))
      elsif column.association.options[:polymorphic]
        raise ActiveScaffold::MalformedConstraint, polymorphic_constraint_error(column.association), caller unless params[:parent_model]
        record.send("#{k}=", params[:parent_model].constantize.find(v))
      else # regular singular association
        record.send("#{k}=", column.association.klass.find(v))

        # setting the belongs_to side of a has_one isn't safe. if the has_one was already
        # specified, rails won't automatically clear out the previous associated record.
        #
        # note that we can't take the extra step to correct this unless we're permitted to
        # run operations where activerecord auto-saves the object.
        reverse = column.association.klass.reflect_on_association(column.association.reverse)
        if reverse.macro == :has_one and options[:allow_autosave]
          record.send(k).send("#{column.association.reverse}=", record)

      end

condition_from_association_constraint(association, value) click to toggle source

We do NOT want to use .search_sql. If anything, search_sql will refer to a human-searchable value on the associated record.

# File lib/active_scaffold/constraints.rb, line 87
def condition_from_association_constraint(association, value)
  # when the reverse association is a :belongs_to, the id for the associated object only exists as
  # the primary_key on the other table. so for :has_one and :has_many (when the reverse is :belongs_to),
  # we have to use the other model's primary_key.
  #
  # please see the relevant tests for concrete examples.
  field = if [:has_one, :has_many].include?(association.macro)
    association.klass.primary_key
  elsif [:has_and_belongs_to_many].include?(association.macro)
    association.association_foreign_key
  else
    association.options[:foreign_key] || association.name.to_s.foreign_key
  end

  table = case association.macro
    when :has_and_belongs_to_many
    association.options[:join_table]

    when :belongs_to
    active_scaffold_config.model.table_name

    else
    association.table_name
  end

  if association.options[:primary_key]
    value = association.klass.find(value).send(association.options[:primary_key])
  end

  condition = {"#{table}.#{field}" => value}
  if association.options[:polymorphic]
    raise ActiveScaffold::MalformedConstraint, polymorphic_constraint_error(association), caller unless params[:parent_model]
    condition["#{table}.#{association.name}_type"] = params[:parent_model].constantize.model.to_s
  end

  condition

conditions_from_constraints() click to toggle source

Returns search conditions based on the current scaffold constraints.

Supports constraints based on either a column name (in which case it checks for an association or just uses the search_sql) or a database field name.

All of this work is primarily to support nested scaffolds in a manner generally useful for other embedded scaffolds.

register_constraints_with_action_columns(constrained_fields = nil) click to toggle source

For each enabled action, adds the constrained columns to the ActionColumns object (if it exists). This lets the ActionColumns object skip constrained columns.

If the constraint value is a Hash, then we assume the constraint is a multi-level association constraint (the reverse of a has_many :through) and we do NOT register the constraint column.

# File lib/active_scaffold/constraints.rb, line 15
def register_constraints_with_action_columns(constrained_fields = nil)
  constrained_fields ||= []
  constrained_fields |= active_scaffold_constraints.reject{|k, v| v.is_a? Hash}.keys.collect(&:to_sym)
  exclude_actions = []
  [:list, :update].each do |action_name|
    if active_scaffold_config.actions.include? action_name
      exclude_actions << action_name unless active_scaffold_config.send(action_name).hide_nested_column
    end
  end

  if self.class.uses_active_scaffold?
    # we actually want to do this whether constrained_fields exist or not, so that we can reset the array when they don't
    active_scaffold_config.actions.each do |action_name|
      next if exclude_actions.include?(action_name)
      action = active_scaffold_config.send(action_name)
      next unless action.respond_to? :columns
      action.columns.constraint_columns = constrained_fields
