Ruby on Rails- Query Amount between two dates from console

Question

I want to query total amount (which is a column in all the records) and have an option to choose dates to get the sum of the amount between those dates.

What is the best way to do that?

Answer 1

You can use sum :

Model.sum(:amount)

To select dates, just add where :

Model.where(date: from_date..to_date).sum(:amount)
