Allow to set a table alias on columns
I have to work with quite some big tables where we use information from various models. Often joining multiple information from the same table, but through a different association.
For example:
Group to have multiple Users
Group to belong to one User as an admin
And then showing a table like this:
User | Group name | Group admin
Inspired by the addition of Rails 6.1.1 to allow where clause reference association by alias name this PR tries to solve this issue by allowing to overwrite the table_alias
of a particular column definition.
This solution should also solve the issue mentioned in https://github.com/jbox-web/ajax-datatables-rails/issues/363
