# Active Queryable

Active Queryable is a lightweight Ruby gem designed to simplify sorting, filtering, and paginating models in Rails applications. Its intuitive API and seamless integration with ActiveModel make building complex queries a breeze.

## Features
* Easy integration with Rails models.
* Support for dynamic sorting, filtering, and pagination.
* Compatible with JSON:API specification for pagination parameters.
* Extensible through custom scopes for advanced filtering needs.

## Installation

Ensure you have Rails >= 5.2 (or specify another version if needed) and then add Active Queryable to your Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'active_queryable'
```

or alternatively `bundle add active_queryable`

## Usage

First, include the `as_queryable` method in your model to enable the gem.

```ruby
class Person < ActiveModel::Base
# Add this line to enable the gem
as_queryable
end
```

Then, configure the order and filters you want to use:

```ruby
class Person < ActiveModel::Base
# Add this line to enable the gem
as_queryable

# Configure order and filters
queryable order: { name: :asc },
filter: [:name]
end
```

This will allow you to query your model using the `query_by` method:

```ruby
Person.query_by(order: '-name') # SELECT * FROM people ORDER BY name DESC LIMIT 25
Person.query_by(filter: { name: 'john'}) # SELECT * FROM people WHERE people.name = 'john' LIMIT 25
```

### Pagination
You can also use pagination, using [kaminari](https://github.com/kaminari/kaminari) under the hood:

```ruby
Person.query_by(per: 20, page: 2) # SELECT * FROM people LIMIT 20 OFFSET 20
# Accepts also JSON:API-styled parameters
Person.query_by(page: { number: 2, size: 20 }) # SELECT * FROM people LIMIT 20 OFFSET 20
```

### Custom scopes and orders
You can also use custom scopes to extend the filtering and ordering capabilities.

The gem will look for a scope with the same name as the filter, and a method with the same name as the order.

```ruby
class Person < ActiveModel::Base
# Add this line to enable the gem
as_queryable

# Configure order and filters
queryable order: { fullname: :asc },
filter: [:name_like]

# the `of_name_like` scope will be used when filtering by `name_like`
scope :of_name_like, ->(name) { where('name LIKE ?', "%#{name}%") }
# the `by_name` method will be used when ordering by `name`
order :by_name, ->(direction) { order(firstname: direction, lastname: direction) }
end
```
