Hello

First of all, if there are 2 models ... then i think you got it wrong ... assuming you have


class Book < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :likes
has_one :book_expire
end

class BookExpire < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :book
end

class Like < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :book
end

Then you could add " , :counter_cache => true " to the belongs_to association (if needed add a likes_count field in the Book table)

if you do that .., then you could do a very easy query like

@books = Book.joins(:book_expire).all.order(' likes_count ASC, book_expires.end_at DESC') # and i would add a limit ()

have a look here : http://railscasts.com/episodes/23-counter-cache-column (even the move uses rails 2.x ... the concept and syntax is still valid )

Hello Friends,

I have a rails application where requirement is that, I want to display books based on likes and expiry date..

I am using the following query

"select books.*, (select count(*) from likes where likes.book_id = books.id) as ct
from books, book_expires where book_expires.book_id = books.id order by ct ASC, book_expires.end_at DESC"

And the output I am getting is on the bases of count not end_date..

Please let me know where I am getting wrong thanks...


Thanks
abhis
