Remove deprecated #search method (#1147)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
`#search` is deprecated in v2.1.1 and it scheduled to remove the
method in v2.3.
activerecord-hackery/ransack#975

But the method still exists in v2.3.2. So let's remove the method.

If we removed the method, users can remove the patch for `search`
(`ActiveRecord::Base.class_eval('remove_method :search'`).

### Ransack #search method

Ransack will try to make the class method `#search` available in your
models, but if `#search` has already been defined elsewhere, you can always use
the default `#ransack` class method. So the following are equivalent:

```ruby
Article.ransack(params[:q])
Article.search(params[:q])
```

Users have reported issues of `#search` name conflicts with other gems, so
the `#search` method alias will be deprecated in the next major version of
Ransack (2.0). It's advisable to use the default `#ransack` instead.

For now, if Ransack's `#search` method conflicts with the name of another
method named `search` in your code or another gem, you may resolve it either by
patching the `extended` class_method in `Ransack::Adapters::ActiveRecord::Base`
to remove the line `alias :search :ransack unless base.respond_to? :search`, or
by placing the following line in your Ransack initializer file at
`config/initializers/ransack.rb`:

```ruby
Ransack::Adapters::ActiveRecord::Base.class_eval('remove_method :search')
```

### Associations

You can easily use Ransack to search for objects in `has_many` and `belongs_to`
