ruby-on-rails-4 – 为什么Relation.size有时会在Rails 4中返回Hash

我可以用两种不同的方式运行查询来返回一个Relation.

当我询问Relation的大小时,一个查询按预期给出一个Fixnum,另一个给出一个Hash,它是Relations Group By语句中每个值的哈希值,每个值的出现次数.

在Rails 3中,我认为它总是返回一个Fixnum,因为我从来没有遇到过Rails 4的问题,它有时会返回一个Hash和一个像Rel.size.zero这样的语句？给出错误：

undefined method `zero?’ for {}:Hash

我最好只使用.blank吗？检查零记录以确保避免意外错误的方法？

这是一段代码,包含两个查询和生成的日志的looging语句

码：

assessment_responses1=AssessmentResponse.select("process").where("client_id=? and final = ?",self.id,false).group("process")
logger.info("-----------------------------------------------------------")
logger.info("assessment_responses1.class = #{assessment_responses1.class}")
logger.info("assessment_responses1.size.class = #{assessment_responses1.size.class}")
logger.info("assessment_responses1.size value = #{assessment_responses1.size}")

logger.info("............................................................")

assessment_responses2=AssessmentResponse.select("distinct process").where("client_id=? and final = ?",false)
logger.info("assessment_responses2.class = #{assessment_responses2.class}")
logger.info("assessment_responses2.size.class = #{assessment_responses2.size.class}")
logger.info("assessment_responses2.size values = #{assessment_responses2.size}")
logger.info("-----------------------------------------------------------")

解决方法

ActiveRecord :: Relation对象上的大小转换为count,因为前者试图获取Relation的计数.但是当您在分组的Relation对象上调用count时,您会收到一个哈希值.

此哈希的键是分组列的值;此哈希的值是各自的计数.

AssessmentResponse.group(:client_id).count # this will return a Hash
AssessmentResponse.group(:client_id).size # this will also return a Hash

这适用于following methods：计数,总和,平均值,最大值和最小值.

如果要检查是否存在行,只需使用exists？即执行以下操作：

AssessmentResponse.group(:client_id).exists?

而不是这个：

AssessmentResponse.group(:client_id).count.zero?
