Overview

# Cannot Be Inline Scope Error

Error CannotBeInlineScopeError occurs when an inline scope has been used to define a filter that takes a parameter. This is not valid for use as a Filterameter filter because an inline scope always has an arity of -1 meaning the factory cannot tell if it has an argument or not. As such, all inline scopes are assumed to not have arguments and thus be conditional scopes.

[The Rails guide](guides.rubyonrails.org/active_record_querying.html#passing-in-arguments) provides guidance suggesting scopes that take arguments be written as class methods. This takes that guidance a step further and makes it a requirement for a scope that will be used as a filter.
