Filtering in RailsAdmin using an integer belongs_to association field
I am trying to set up "search fields" on my User
model using RailsAdmin and an belongs_to
association called Budget
.
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :budget
end
class Budget < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :users
end
The object Budget
has a price_in_dollars
type field Integer
.
In RailsAdmin, while browsing the object Budget
, I can click Add Filter and select Dollar Price, which allows filtering using Number or Between ... and ... specifying a range.
I want to use similar filtering in my model User
to filter by Budget
using a column price_in_dollars
.
The RailsAdmin list documentation says:
Belongs to associations:
- will search for their Foreign_key (: team_id)
- or on their label if the label is not virtual (: name ,: title, etc.)
- You can also specify columns on target table or source table
Based on this, I added this block to my model User
:
rails_admin do
list do
field :budget do
searchable [:price_in_dollars]
end
end
end
With this block, I can now enter a value such as "500" and price_in_dollars
filter using "contains" or "exactly" and the price_in_dollars
foreign key identifier column is used price_in_dollars
.
However, I have no way to filter by range as I do when going directly to the admin page Budget
.
Is there a way to force the filter menu to use number or integer specific options? It looks like it can be thought of as a string datatype with respect to filtering.
