module ActiveAdmin::ResourceController::DataAccess

This module overrides most of the data access methods in Inherited Resources to provide Active Admin with it's data.

The module also deals with authorization and resource callbacks.

Protected Instance Methods

apply_authorization_scope(collection) click to toggle source

Gives the authorization library a change to pre-scope the collection.

In the case of the CanCan adapter, it calls `#accessible_by` on the collection.

@param [ActiveRecord::Relation] collection The collection to scope

@return [ActiveRecord::Relation] a scoped collection of query

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 198
def apply_authorization_scope(collection)
  action_name = action_to_permission(params[:action])
  active_admin_authorization.scope_collection(collection, action_name)
end
apply_decorations(resource) click to toggle source

@param resource [ActiveRecord::Base] @return [ActiveRecord::Base] resource

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 300
def apply_decorations(resource)
  apply_decorator(resource)
end
apply_filtering(chain) click to toggle source

Applies any Ransack search methods to the currently scoped collection. Both `search` and `ransack` are provided, but we use `ransack` to prevent conflicts.

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 216
def apply_filtering(chain)
  @search = chain.ransack(params[:q] || {})
  @search.result
end
apply_includes(chain) click to toggle source
# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 231
def apply_includes(chain)
  if active_admin_config.includes.any?
    chain.includes *active_admin_config.includes
  else
    chain
  end
end
apply_pagination(chain) click to toggle source
# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 251
def apply_pagination(chain)
  # skip pagination if already was paginated by scope
  return chain if chain.respond_to?(:total_pages)
  page_method_name = Kaminari.config.page_method_name
  page = params[Kaminari.config.param_name]

  chain.public_send(page_method_name, page).per(per_page)
end
apply_scoping(chain) click to toggle source
# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 221
def apply_scoping(chain)
  @collection_before_scope = chain

  if current_scope
    scope_chain(current_scope, chain)
  else
    chain
  end
end
apply_sorting(chain) click to toggle source
# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 203
def apply_sorting(chain)
  params[:order] ||= active_admin_config.sort_order
  order_clause = active_admin_config.order_clause.new(active_admin_config, params[:order])

  if order_clause.valid?
    order_clause.apply(chain)
  else
    chain # just return the chain
  end
end
assign_attributes(resource, attributes) click to toggle source

@param resource [ActiveRecord::Base] @param attributes [Array<Hash] @return [ActiveRecord::Base] resource

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 287
def assign_attributes(resource, attributes)
  if resource.respond_to?(:assign_attributes)
    resource.assign_attributes(*attributes)
  else
    resource.attributes = attributes[0]
  end

  resource
end
build_new_resource() click to toggle source

Builds a new resource. This method uses the method_for_build provided by Inherited Resources.

@return [ActiveRecord::Base] An un-saved active record base object

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 130
def build_new_resource
  scoped_collection.send(
    method_for_build,
    *resource_params.map { |params| params.slice(active_admin_config.resource_class.inheritance_column) }
  )
end
build_resource() click to toggle source

Builds, memoize and authorize a new instance of the resource. The actual work of building the new instance is delegated to the build_new_resource method.

This method is used to instantiate and authorize new resources in the new and create controller actions.

@return [ActiveRecord::Base] An un-saved active record base object

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 114
def build_resource
  get_resource_ivar || begin
    resource = build_new_resource
    resource = apply_decorations(resource)
    resource = assign_attributes(resource, resource_params)
    run_build_callbacks resource
    authorize_resource! resource

    set_resource_ivar resource
  end
end
collection() click to toggle source

Retrieve, memoize and authorize the current collection from the db. This method delegates the finding of the collection to find_collection.

Once collection has been called, the collection is available using either the @collection instance variable or an instance variable named after the resource that the collection is for. eg: Post => @post.

@return [ActiveRecord::Relation] The collection for the index

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 42
def collection
  get_collection_ivar || begin
    collection = find_collection
    authorize! Authorization::READ, active_admin_config.resource_class
    set_collection_ivar collection
  end
end
collection_applies(options = {}) click to toggle source
# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 260
def collection_applies(options = {})
  only   = Array(options.fetch(:only, COLLECTION_APPLIES))
  except = Array(options.fetch(:except, []))

  COLLECTION_APPLIES & only - except
end
collection_before_scope() click to toggle source
# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 239
def collection_before_scope
  @collection_before_scope
end
configured_per_page() click to toggle source
# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 279
def configured_per_page
  Array(active_admin_config.per_page).first
end
create_resource(object) click to toggle source

Calls all the appropriate callbacks and then creates the new resource.

@param [ActiveRecord::Base] object The new resource to create

@return [void]

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 142
def create_resource(object)
  run_create_callbacks object do
    save_resource(object)
  end
end
current_scope() click to toggle source
# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 243
def current_scope
  @current_scope ||= if params[:scope]
                       active_admin_config.get_scope_by_id(params[:scope])
                     else
                       active_admin_config.default_scope(self)
                     end
end
destroy_resource(object) click to toggle source

Destroys an object from the database and calls appropriate callbacks.

@return [void]

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 180
def destroy_resource(object)
  run_destroy_callbacks object do
    object.destroy
  end
end
dynamic_per_page() click to toggle source
# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 275
def dynamic_per_page
  params[:per_page] || @per_page
end
find_collection(options = {}) click to toggle source

Does the actual work of retrieving the current collection from the db. This is a great method to override if you would like to perform some additional db # work before your controller returns and authorizes the collection.

@return [ActiveRecord::Relation] The collection for the index

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 56
def find_collection(options = {})
  collection = scoped_collection
  collection_applies(options).each do |applyer|
    collection = send("apply_#{applyer}", collection)
  end
  collection
end
find_resource() click to toggle source

Does the actual work of finding a resource in the database. This method uses the finder method as defined in InheritedResources.

@return [ActiveRecord::Base] An active record object.

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 102
def find_resource
  scoped_collection.send method_for_find, params[:id]
end
per_page() click to toggle source
# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 267
def per_page
  if active_admin_config.paginate
    dynamic_per_page || configured_per_page
  else
    active_admin_config.max_per_page
  end
end
resource() click to toggle source

Retrieve, memoize and authorize a resource based on params. The actual work of finding the resource is done in find_resource.

This method is used on all the member actions:

* show
* edit
* update
* destroy

@return [ActiveRecord::Base] An active record object

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 88
def resource
  get_resource_ivar || begin
    resource = find_resource
    resource = apply_decorations(resource)
    authorize_resource! resource

    set_resource_ivar resource
  end
end
save_resource(object) click to toggle source

Calls all the appropriate callbacks and then saves the new resource.

@param [ActiveRecord::Base] object The new resource to save

@return [void]

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 153
def save_resource(object)
  run_save_callbacks object do
    object.save
  end
end
scoped_collection() click to toggle source

Override this method in your controllers to modify the start point of our searches and index.

This method should return an ActiveRecord::Relation object so that the searching and filtering can be applied on top

Note, unless you are doing something special, you should use the scope_to method from the Scoping module instead of overriding this method.

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 73
def scoped_collection
  end_of_association_chain
end
smart_resource_url() click to toggle source

@return [String]

Calls superclass method
# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 305
def smart_resource_url
  if create_another?
    new_resource_url(create_another: params[:create_another])
  else
    super
  end
end
update_resource(object, attributes) click to toggle source

Update an object with the given attributes. Also calls the appropriate callbacks for update action.

@param [ActiveRecord::Base] object The instance to update

@param [Array] attributes An array with the attributes in the first position

and the Active Record "role" in the second. The role
may be set to nil.

@return [void]

# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 169
def update_resource(object, attributes)
  object = assign_attributes(object, attributes)

  run_update_callbacks object do
    save_resource(object)
  end
end

Private Instance Methods

create_another?() click to toggle source

@return [Boolean] true if user requested to create one more

resource after creating this one.
# File lib/active_admin/resource_controller/data_access.rb, line 317
def create_another?
  params[:create_another].present?
end
