Constructor Details

#initialize(base, target, metadata) ⇒ Many

Instantiate a new references_many relation. Will set the foreign key and the base on the inverse object.

Examples:

Create the new relation.

Referenced::Many.new(base, target, )

Parameters:

  • base (Document)

    The document this relation hangs off of.

  • target (Array<Document>)

    The target of the relation.

  • metadata (Metadata)

    The relation’s metadata.

Since:

  • 2.0.0.beta.1

    raise_mixed if klass.embedded?
  end
end

Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method

#method_missing(name, *args, &block) ⇒ Criteria, Object (private)

If the target array does not respond to the supplied method then try to find a named scope or criteria on the class and send the call there.

If the method exists on the array, use the default proxy behavior.

Parameters:

  • name (Symbol, String)

    The name of the method.

  • args (Array)

    The method args

  • block (Proc)

    Optional block to pass.

Returns:

  • (Criteria, Object)

    A Criteria or return value from the target.

Since:

  • 2.0.0.beta.1
