Public Class methods

new(expr, separator=nil)

Set the expression and separator

[show source]

Public Instance methods

distinct()

Return a modified StringAgg that uses distinct expressions

[show source]
    # File lib/sequel/extensions/string_agg.rb
160 def distinct
161   self.class.new(@expr, @separator) do |sa|
162     sa.instance_variable_set(:@order_expr, @order_expr) if @order_expr
163     sa.instance_variable_set(:@distinct, true)
164   end
165 end
is_distinct?()

Whether the current expression uses distinct expressions

[show source]
    # File lib/sequel/extensions/string_agg.rb
155 def is_distinct?
156   @distinct == true
157 end
order(*o)

Return a modified StringAgg with the given order

[show source]
    # File lib/sequel/extensions/string_agg.rb
168 def order(*o)
169   self.class.new(@expr, @separator) do |sa|
170     sa.instance_variable_set(:@distinct, @distinct) if @distinct
171     sa.instance_variable_set(:@order_expr, o.empty? ? nil : o.freeze)
