Fix issue with ransackable_attribute not handling symbols correctly
Fix: https://github.com/activerecord-hackery/ransack/issues/1538
If the behavior is as intended, please close this PR.
Problem
When using the ransackable_attributes method in ActiveRecord, passing an array of symbols causes the search conditions for the corresponding attributes to be ignored. However, passing an array of strings works as expected.
Steps to Reproduce
1: Create a migration for a users table with a name column:
class CreateUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration[7.1]
def change
create_table :users do |t|
t.string :name
t.timestamps
end
end
end
2: Define the User model with ransackable_attributes returning a symbol array:
class User < ApplicationRecord
def self.ransackable_attributes(auth_object = nil)
[:name]
end
end
3: Attempt to perform a Ransack query with a condition on the name attribute:
User.ransack(name_cont: "hoge").result.to_sql
Actual Behavior
The generated SQL query ignores the condition for name:
SELECT "users".* FROM "users"
