I'm having trouble understanding how the "tagged_with" method would work in the case where I wanted to search "by context".
For example, if I have the following @user:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
acts_as_taggable_on :skills, :interests
end
@user1 = User.new(:name => "Bobby")
@user1.interest_list = "1, 2"
@user1.skill_list = "5, 3, 4"
@user1.save
@user2 = User.new(:name => "Al")
@user2.interest_list = "2, 4"
@user2.skill_list = "1, 3, 4"
@user2.save
I know that
User.tagged_with(["1"], :any => true)
will give me back both @user1 and @user2, b/c it doesn't distinguish between interest"1" tag or skill"1" tag. But my question is: Is there a way to search for Users with tag "1" in "interests" context only and not "skills" context ? In other words, how do i fetch just @user2 by specifying "skill" "1" somehow ?
Thanks for you help, guys
Use the on
option:
User.tagged_with(["1"], :on => :skills)
See the section entitled "Dynamic Tag Contexts" at the readme and this cheat sheet for a reference.
