3
+ Periscope provides a simple way to chain scopes on your models and to open those scopes up to your users.
4
+
5
+ ## The Problem
6
+
7
+ More often than not, the index action in a RESTful Rails controller is expected to do a lot more than simply return all the records for a given model. We ask it to do all sorts of stuff like filtering, sorting and paginating results. Of course, this is typically done using _scopes_.
8
+
9
+ But it can get ugly building long, complicated chains of scopes in the controller, especially when you try to give your users control over the scoping. Picture this:
10
+
11
+ ```ruby
12
+ def index
13
+ @articles = Article.scoped
14
+ @articles = @articles.published_after(params[:published_after]) if params.key?(:published_after)
15
+ @articles = @articles.published_before(params[:published_before]) if params.key?(:published_before)
16
+ end
17
+ ```
18
+
19
+ You can imagine how bad this would get if more than two scopes were involved.
20
+
21
+ ## The Solution
22
+
23
+ With Periscope, you can have this instead:
24
+
25
+ ```ruby
26
+ def index
27
+ @articles = Article.periscope(request.query_parameters)
28
+ end
29
+ ```
30
+
31
+ The `periscope` method will find keys in your params matching your scope names and chain your scopes for you.
32
+
33
+ **Note:** We're using `request.query_parameters` so that we can exclude our controller and action params. `request.query_parameters` will just return the params that appear in the query string.
34
+
35
+ ## But Wait!
36
+
37
+ "What if I don't want to make all my scopes publicly accessible?"
38
+
39
+ Within your model you can use the `scope_accessible` method to specify which scopes you want Periscope to honor.
40
+
41
+ ```ruby
42
+ class User < ActiveRecord::Base
43
+ scope :gender, lambda{|g| where(gender: g) }
44
+ scope :makes, lambda{|s| where('salary >= ?', s) }
45
+
46
+ scope_accessible :gender
47
+ end
48
+ ```
49
+
50
+ And in your controller:
51
+
52
+ ```ruby
53
+ class UsersController < ApplicationController
54
+ def index
55
+ @users = User.periscope(request.query_parameters)
56
+ end
57
+ end
58
+ ```
59
+
60
+ Requests to `/users?gender=male` will filter results to only male users. But a request to `/users?makes=1000000` will return all users, silently ignoring the protected scope.
61
+
62
+ By default, all scopes are protected.
63
+
64
+ ## There's More!
65
+
66
+ ### Custom Parameter Parsing
67
+
68
+ Sometimes the values you get from the query parameters aren't quite good enough. They may need to be massaged in order to work with your scopes and class methods. In those cases, you can provide a `:parser` option to your `scope_accessible` method.
69
+
70
+ Parsers must respond to the `call` method, receiving the raw query parameter and returning an array of arguments to pass to the scope or class method.
71
+
72
+ ```ruby
73
+ class User < ActiveRecord::Base
74
+ scope :gender, lambda{|g| where(gender: g) }
75
+
76
+ scope_accessible :gender, parser: lambda{|g| [g.downcase] }
77
+ end
78
+ ```
79
+
80
+ ### On/Off Scopes
81
+
82
+ But not all scopes accept arguments. For scopes that you want to toggle on or off, you can set a `:boolean => true` option. Whenever the received parameter is truthy, the scope will be applied. Otherwise, it will be skipped.
83
+
84
+ ```ruby
85
+ class User < ActiveRecord::Base
86
+ scope :male, where(gender: 'male')
87
+ scope :female, where(gender: 'female')
88
+
89
+ scope_accessible :male, :female, boolean: true
90
+ end
91
+ ```
92
+
93
+ ### Custom Method Names
94
+
95
+ Sometimes the query parameters you want to open up to your users may collide with existing method names or reserved Ruby words. In order to avoid collision, you can set a `:method` option to specify what method to use for a query parameter.
96
+
97
+ ```ruby
98
+ class Project < ActiveRecord::Base
99
+ scope_accessible :begin, method: :begins_after
100
+ scope_accessible :end, method: :ends_before
101
+
102
+ def self.begins_after(date)
103
+ where('begins_at >= ?', date)
104
+ end
105
+
106
+ def self.ends_before(date)
107
+ where('ends_at <= ?', date)
108
+ end
109
+ end
110
+ ```
111
+
112
+ Alternatively, you can set `:prefix` and/or `:suffix` options, which will be applied to the query parameter name to determine the corresponding method name.
113
+
114
+ ```ruby
115
+ class Project < ActiveRecord::Base
116
+ scope_accessible :begin, :end, suffix: '_date'
117
+
118
+ def self.begin_date(date)
119
+ where('begins_at >= ?', date)
120
+ end
121
+
122
+ def self.end_date(date)
123
+ where('ends_at <= ?', date)
124
+ end
125
+ end
126
+ ```
127
+
128
+ ## This sucks. How can I make it better?
129
+
130
+ 1. Fork it.
131
+ 2. Make it better.
132
+ 3. Send me a pull request.
