Rails 3 equivalent of complex SQL query
- by Bryan
Given the following models:
class Recipe < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :recipe_ingredients
has_many :ingredients, :through => :recipe_ingredients
end
class RecipeIngredient < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :recipe
belongs_to :ingredient
end
class Ingredient < ActiveRecord::Base
end
How can I perform the following SQL query using Arel in Rails 3?
SELECT * FROM recipes WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT * FROM ingredients WHERE
name IN ('chocolate', 'cream') AND
NOT EXISTS (
SELECT * FROM recipe_ingredients WHERE
recipe_ingredients.recipe_id = recipes.id AND
recipe_ingredients.ingredient_id = ingredients.id))
