User has many Posts and many Comments. Posts has many Comments.

If I have @post, how do I get all unique user comments of this post?

For example. User Foo and user Bar have comments on @post. User Foo has 10 comments, while user Bar has 5 comments.

The result only needs to return Foo and Bar. How do I go about this?

I tried the following to no avail:

@post.comments.select('DISTINCT users.email').joins(:user)

Im using MySql by the way.

    I’m assuming by “needs to return Foo and Bar” you mean the users Foo and Bar.

    If an array will do, consider this:

    @post.comments.collect(&:user).uniq
