Overview

This node is essentially a container that will result in Arel predicate nodes once visited. It stores the expression (normally an attribute name, function, or operation), the Arel predicate method name, and a value. these are then interpreted when visited by the PredicateVisitor to generate a condition against the appropriate columns.

Constructor Details

#initialize(expr, method_name = :eq, value = :__undefined__) ⇒ Predicate

Create a new Predicate node with the given expression, method name, and value

Parameters:

  • expr

    The expression for the left hand side of the predicate.

  • method_name (Symbol) (defaults to: :eq)

    The Arel predication method

  • value (defaults to: :__undefined__)

    An optional value. If not given, one will need to be supplied before the node can be visited properly.

Instance Method Details

#%(val) ⇒ Predicate

Set the value for this predicate

Parameters:

  • val

#hashObject

Implemented for equality testing

# File 'lib/squeel/nodes/predicate.rb', line 40

def hash
  [@expr, @method_name, @value].hash
end

#to_symNilClass

expand_hash_conditions_for_aggregates assumes our hash keys can be converted to symbols, so this has to be implemented, but it doesn’t really have to do anything useful.

Returns:

  • (NilClass)

    Just to avoid bombing out on expand_hash_conditions_for_aggregates

def to_sym
  nil
end

#value?Boolean

Whether the value has been assigned yet.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

    Has the value been set?
