How to get posts with votes above a certain number? - Rails

I'm trying to make a feed page where users can see the popular posts and the posts of whom they followed. This what I tried (but failed):

  @popularPosts = Post.where(cached_votes_score > '2')

returning an error.

undefined local variable or method `cached_votes_score' for #<PagesController:0x007fa2ae08f630> Did you mean? cache_store

Any thought on this?

Solution

  • What you want is done:

    Post.where('cached_votes_score > 2')

    What you where trying to do was interpreted as trying to call a method cached_votes_score in the controller and comparing if its returned value is greater than '2'.

    Rails doesn't have a Railsism to do greater than comparisons, so you do a SQL segment to accomplish it.
