[...] I did just recently move a legacy site from 2.0.2 to 2.1, primarily for gem bundling and because named scopes are awesome. You need to be careful with this — there aren’t many compatibility issues from 2.0.x to 2.1, but [...]

@Karl lambda allows the lazy evaluation of that code, a block would be ran at loading time..

Am I missing something or is: “lower(#{column}) LIKE ?”, “%#{text.downcase}%” opening up the query to sql injection if you pass in something from the user, like: Model.contains(:name, params[:name]). I believe we’d want this instead:
“lower(#{column}) LIKE ?”, “%#{connection.quote_string(text.downcase)}%”

Um, just a distinction… In all your examples don’t you mean to use User instead of user? Your calling the method on the Model, not an instance? Correct me if I’m wrong.

Don’t forget how well this blends into things like pagination:

@users = User.active.by_name.paginate( :page => params[:page], rder => 'created_on DESC', :per_page => (params[:users_per_page] || 12) )

For example

I also like how I could pull an array as well (without making a new named_scope or tinkering with sorts):

@users = User.active.by_name[0..3]

I’m glad this made it into production.

Nice post – I’m loving named_scope aswell – realised the other day that it’s easy to use them with has_many associations.

Nice article. I’ve been putting off upgrading my 1.x application, but you’ve just given me more incentive to do so.

Gotta love ‘em!

I hope for round two, they get rid of the ‘lamba’ nonsense and just accept a &block. Much more rails-ish.
