rails method to get the association name of a model
rails-activerecord, ruby-on-rails
Solution
You're looking for `reflect_on_all_associations`.
So in short:
Post.reflect_on_all_associations(:has_many)
...will give an array (of object with attributes like `name`, etc) of all `has_many` associations.
Problem
Is there a way to find out what associations a model has? Take these 2 models: ``` class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :commentable end class Post < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :comments belongs_to :user end ``` I'm looking for something like: ``` Post.has_many #=> ['comments', ...] Post.belongs_to # => ['user'] Comment.belongs_to # => ['commentable'] ```
