ruby on rails - Defining methods on the activerecord relationship
I want to define a custom method on an activerecord relation, eg:
Transaction.all.summed_values
A simple example would be where summed_values should evaluate sum(:value) on the relation.
Where should I define the method summed_values? Looks like it should be on ActiveRecord::Relation. If it should be directly there, which file should I put it in?
Also, if this new method only has meaning for Transactions, is there any way to tell rails to only define this method for ActiveRecord::Relations that consist of Transactions?
