Question

my model is

class Job < ActiveRecord::Base
    belongs_to :client
end

class Client < ActiveRecord::Base
   has_many :jobs
end

in controller i want get client with sorted jobs.
If i do (without ordering)

@client = Client.find(params[:id], :include => {:jobs => :status})

It is all ok. But if i add ordering:

@client = Client.find(params[:id], :include => {:jobs => :status}, :order => 'job.level DESC')

// :order is dynamicly set (not in this example) – i know about :order in has_many.

the result is only 3 rows (for every job.level one). I logged the sql query and executed it and result is ok, but in app i have only these 3 rows.
What is the right way to sort jobs? Thank you

Answer 1

This is not what i originally wanted, but it works, so this is answer

@jobs = @client.jobs.find(:all, :order => sort_column + " " + sort_direction)
