【Question】When use colon(::) for class name.

[kntmrkm]

Hi there.

• Rails 4.1.2
• attr_searchable 0.0.4

my setting is below..

models

• Account
• Setting

Account

class Account < ActiveRecord::Base
  attr_searchable :name
  attr_searchable setting: ["account_settings.formal_name"]
  has_one :setting
end

Setting

database tablename is "account_settings"

class Account::Setting < ActiveRecord::Base

end

Directory structure is ...

• app/models
  • account
    • setting.rb
  • account.rb

I tried. but NameError happened.

uninitialized constant AccountSetting

How do I write to model setting?

Hi, thanks for posting.

I added a patch to make #attr_searchable_alias support this case.
Could you add the upstream version to your Gemfile:

gem 'attr_searchable', :git => 'https://github.com/mrkamel/attr_searchable.git'

and check if the following is sufficient for you:

class Account < ActiveRecord::Base
  include AttrSearchable

  attr_searchable :name
  attr_searchable :setting => "account_settings.formal_name"

  attr_searchable_alias :account_settings => :setting

  has_one :setting
end

Thanks for response.
I tried.
but... error happend.

PG::UndefinedTable: ERROR:  missing FROM-clause entry for table "account_settings"

                                                             ^
: SELECT  "accounts".* FROM "accounts"  WHERE ("accounts"."id" != 0) AND (("accounts"."name" ILIKE '%柔術%' OR "account_settings"."formal_name" ILIKE '%柔術%')) LIMIT 25 OFFSET 0
  Account Load (0.6ms)  
    SELECT
        "accounts" . *
    FROM
        "accounts"
    WHERE
        (
            "accounts" . "id" != 0
        )
        AND (
            (
                "accounts" . "name" ILIKE '%柔術%'
                OR "account_settings" . "formal_name" ILIKE '%柔術%'
            )
        ) LIMIT 25 OFFSET 0

I have make sure existense of "account_settings".
my mistake?

Loading development environment (Rails 4.1.2)
4.1.2@2.1.2 (main)> Account::Setting.all.to_sql
=> "SELECT \"account_settings\".* FROM \"account_settings\""

part of code.

class Account < Common
  include AttrSearchable
  attr_searchable :name
  attr_searchable :setting => "account_settings.formal_name"

  attr_searchable_alias :account_settings => :setting
  scope :search_scope, -> {  }

  has_one :setting, dependent: :destroy
end

This error does not belong to the primary issue.

An empty :search_scope can't be sufficient here, because you want to search within associations. You rather have to not define a scope :search_scope to let AttrSearchable auto-eagerload the associations - or - manually load the associations you're searching in

scope :search_scope, -> { eager_load :setting }

# OR

scope :search_scope, -> { joins :setting }

# OR arbitrary other definitions

# OR not use search_scope at all to let AttrSearchable auto-eagerload :setting

[kntmrkm]

Very Sorry.....

I got it.

I used scope :search_scope, -> { }.
because, when I search for only main model (account), a gem "bullet" issue warning below.

Unused Eager Loading detected
  Account => [[]]
  Remove from your finder: :include => [:[]]

So, I tried empty search_scope.

Anyway. very thanks.

and sorry my English.

[mrkamel]

Nothing to worry about.

Moreover, it's already on my agenda to extend the auto-eagerloading to only eager load what is really neccessary (only the associations referenced within the query string), such that the warning will go away soon.

[kntmrkm]

It's pretty good!
I'm looking forward to it.
