I have a Classs model with businesses, categories, and stages tag types.
classs.rb:
acts_as_taggable_on :businesses
acts_as_taggable_on :categories
acts_as_taggable_on :stages
BUSINESSES = [
"Service Professional (Financial Advisor, Realtor, etc.)",
"E-Commerce",
"F&B",
"Education & Coaching",
"Start-ups",
"B2B",
"B2C",
"Others"
]
CATEGORIES = [
"Social Media Marketing",
"Lead Generation",
"Content Strategy",
"Marketing Strategy",
"Branding Strategy"
]
STAGES = [
"Development (Little to no revenue)",
"Early (Small customer base with some market presence)",
"Growth (Established customer base and large amount of revenue)",
"Mature (Large customer base and profits)"
]
And a ClassSearch form where users can input their business, category, and stage respectively, searching for Classses.
class_searches_controller#show
@filter = @class_search.categories.push(@class_search.business).push(@class_search.stage).flatten.reject(&:blank?)
@classses = Classs.all.tagged_with(@filter, any: true)
I'm wondering if it's possible to rank/order @classses based on the number of tags that are similar to @class_search. If I'm not mistaken, acts_as_taggable_on ranks the results based on ID, which isn't too helpful in this case.
Thanks in advance :D
It's one of the available options that you can pass to the tagged_with method.
@classses = Classs.all.tagged_with(@filter, any: true, order_by_matching_tag_count: true)
Should give you a list ordered (descending) by number of matching tags.
