About this app

This is a small app just for practicing purposes.

Setup

• Clone the repo
• Change into the app directory
• $ bundle install
• $ rake db:setup
• $ rake db:test:prepare

The exercise

The app has two models: User and Address. You'll notice most (if not all) their fields are string fields. We need to be able to search users and addresses with a string query that will return all matching records from the database wherever that string happens to be, e.g. if I search users for 'anelle', I want all matching records whether the string is on the user's first name, last name, nickname, email address.

Given this requirement, here are the constraints:

• No gems that implement full-text search are allowed.
• Make sure your solution returns an ActiveRecord::Relation object and not an Array. This way, you can chain scopes and ensure pagination via Kaminari or will_paginate works as expected.
• Try to develop a solution through TDD.
