- acts_as_tree
- ============
-
- Specify this +acts_as+ extension if you want to model a tree structure by providing a parent association and a children
- association. This requires that you have a foreign key column, which by default is called +parent_id+.
-
- class Category < ActiveRecord::Base
- acts_as_tree :order => "name"
- end
-
- Example:
- root
- \_ child1
- \_ subchild1
- \_ subchild2
-
- root = Category.create("name" => "root")
- child1 = root.children.create("name" => "child1")
- subchild1 = child1.children.create("name" => "subchild1")
-
- root.parent # => nil
- child1.parent # => root
- root.children # => [child1]
- root.children.first.children.first # => subchild1
