I have User model and I have following in the User model
def name
last_name.blank? ? first_name : "#{first_name} #{last_name}"
end
How can I add a find_by_name function to the User model so that I can do this:
User.find_by_name("Peter Smith")
I think you can do that using
named_scopeJim and NAD answers for this similar question Rails virtual attribute search or sql combined column search are probably a good start.
