Rails

DHH’s acts_as_taggable is now much more usable with this patch.

http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/3866

This patch adds scoped finders, documentation, and tests:

Get tags for all articles in a blog

@blog.articles.tags

Get tags for articles in a blog published in the last year

@blog.articles.tags :conditions => [‘published_at > ?’, 1.year.ago]

Get related tags from article tags in a blog

@blog.articles.find_related_tags [‘code’, ‘rails’]

Get blog articles tagged with any/all tags

@blog.articles.find_tagged_with :all => [‘code’, ‘rails’]
@blog.articles.find_tagged_with :any => [‘code’, ‘rails’]
@blog.articles.find_tagged_with [‘code’, ‘rails’] # Depreciated
interface

I would appreciate any feedback.

Hi Sean

I hope I’m not confused and that you are actually referring to this:

http://dev.rubyonrails.org/ticket/3928

This patch looks really good and I’m going to be using/testing it. I was
pulling my hair out a bit with the original. Thanks to everyone who
worked on this.

Very very nice!

I’m looking forward to test it in the near future.
(Thanks for having followed up on the initial patches :wink:

IIRC, the first version had difficulty discriminating between tags in
STI classes.

If you did this…

B < A
and
C < A

and then did

C.find_tagged_with(“tag”)

it would return all A,B, and C with that tag.

Does this ticket fix that?
