Question

I am sending an array from jquery via the url requerts to the rails controller.

when I do this in my controller

log_array = (params[:log_ids])
logger.debug "This is the array #{log_array.to_a}"

I get this in my server log

This is the array 85,84,83,82

I am trying this query to get all the selected logs:

@logs = Log.where(['"logs"."id" IN (?)', log_array])

I get this on the server log

SELECT "logs".* FROM "logs" WHERE ("logs"."id" IN ('85,84,83,82'))

It sould be like this

SELECT "logs".* FROM "logs" WHERE ("logs"."id" IN (85,84,83,82))

It seems like it puts the arry in like a string.

Is there any way to make the sql right for an array?

Answer 1

Or Log.where(:id => params[:log_ids]) if you want to use where() goodness.
