I'm a bit unclear what's going on with relations. I'm hoping someone can
help explain it to me.
Lets say we have a model with orders and line_items such that an order has
many line_items. Thus:
class Order
has_may :line_items
end
class LineItem
belongs_to :order
end
When I have an order and call line_items what's going on? e.g.
Order order = Order.first
order.line_items.each {|li| puts li }
I thought that was basically an alias for:
Order order = Order.first
LineItem.where(:order_id => order.id).each {|li| puts li }
but, this isn't consistent with batching.
So if we do
Order order = Order.first
# this doesn't appear to work, it's not batching, just finding all of the
line items and iterating
order.line_items.find_each {|li| puts li }
# this seems to work as expected (i.e. it batches the retrieval from the db)
LineItem.where(:order_id => order.id).find_each {|li| puts li }
Can anyone explain to me why these to are different?
