在 ActiveAdmin 过滤器中使用 ActiveRecord 范围——仅在选中时应用过滤器

Question

I have an ActiveRecord class Foo and I have an ActiveAdmin index view listing all my foos. Foo has a scope called bland and my UI requirement is that I have a checkbox in the Filters section so that I can see all the bland foos.

Ie, I'd like the Filters section to look like this:

I have read through questions and blogs like the following that say I need a custom ransacker:

Use ActiveRecord scope in ActiveAdmin filter

So my code is something like this:

ActiveAdmin.register Foo
  filter :bland, label: 'Bland Foos', as: :check_boxes, collection: ['exclude tasty']
end

class Foo < ApplicationRecord
  scope :bland, -> { where("tasty < 3") }
  def self.ransackable_scopes(_auth_object = nil)
    [:bland]
  end
end

However, when I try to run this I get an error like:

undefined method `bland_in' for #Ransack::Search:0x00007f8d18e61db8

Ouch.

As an experiment I tried something like this:

ActiveAdmin.register Foo
  filter :bland, label: 'Bland Foos'
end

class Foo < ApplicationRecord
  scope :bland, -> (dummy_param_not_used) { where("tasty < 3") }
  def self.ransackable_scopes(_auth_object = nil)
    [:bland]
  end
end

My idea here being: ok, ActiveAdmin will put up a string input and we'll fill in a value just to trigger the code ... but then the filter doesn't even show on my UI!

Answer 1

See if this can be of any use. You can change UI elements if required.

ActiveAdmin.register Foo
  ......
  scope :bland, -> { where("tasty < 3") }
  ......
end

Answer 2

One way to easily resolve that issue is adding suffix

_in

ActiveAdmin.register Foo
  filter :bland, label: 'Bland Foos'
end

class Foo < ApplicationRecord
  scope :bland_in, -> (dummy_param_not_used) { where("tasty < 3") }
  def self.ransackable_scopes(_auth_object = nil)
    [:bland_in]
