How do I automatically sort a has_many relationship in Rails?

Question

This seems like a really simple question but I haven\'t seen it answered anywhere.

In rails if you have:

class Article < ActiveRecord::Base 
  has         


        

Answer 1

You can use ActiveRecord's find method to get your objects and sort them too.

  @article.comments.find(:all, :order => "created_at DESC")
