I would like to annotate my properties with a ":searchable" option, that is then used by a search class scope to do a simple LIKE query
class Customer property :company, String, :searchable => true def self.search(term) all(:company.like => "%#{term}%") end end Finally I would like to build something like is_searchable mixin that creates the search method in all classes that have at least one property with the :searchable flag set. If extending the possible options for property is not possible or not recommended, then maybe the is_searchable mixin would take the property names as arguments like this: class Customer is_searchable :company end Any thoughts? PS: Yes I am aware of the existing is-searchable mixin but it uses a second db repository iirc -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DataMapper" group.
