How can I set default order in Model.rb?

Rails
1

Hi, all
How can I set a default order in a model.rb?

For an instance, I have a model called “Bulletin”
I want all query with ‘find’ method return records by ordered.

Bulletin.all #=> Same as: Bulletin.find(:all, {:order => "publish_at 
DESC"})

Should I write a method to do that? Or I can set something in the
bulletin
model?

Thanks!

117,
99, 104, 33].map{|c| c.chr}.join

It depends on what version of Rails you’re running. 2.3 has it built
in. Prior to that there is a plugin. Go to agilewebdevelopment.com/
plugins and search for “default order”. Or read the release notes for
2.3.
