Conditional named_scope chaining with params (Need help)

Rails
1

Hello there,

I have a model that has more then one named_scope.

In my action Index of the controller that handle this model I want to do
this in a drier way:

if params[:ownership] == "mine"
    @posts = Post.tagged_with(params[:tags], :on =>

:tags).owner(current_user.id).paginate :all, :page => params[:page],
:order => ‘created_at DESC’
else
@posts = Post.tagged_with(params[:tags], :on => :tags).paginate
:all, :page => params[:page], :order => ‘created_at DESC’
end

This is just a example, I have a lot of options that is why I don’t want
to use the if else end structure.

Thanks,

David S.

chain = Posts.tagged_with(params[:tags], :on => :tags)
chain = chain.owner(current_user.id) if params[:owner]
chain = chain.posted_since(params[:since]) if params[:since]

@posts = chain.paginate(:page => params[:page], :order => “created_at
DESC”)
