Rails: handling two paged lists on single view

Question

Assuming following model:

class Account < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :orders
end

class Order < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :account

  scope :active, -> { where('orders.state = ?', 'ACTIVE') }
  scope :closed, -> { where('orders.state <> ?', 'ACTIVE') }

end

In account/show view I have two lists: one for active orders and other with closed ones.

Now I need to add a paging for each of the lists (using will_paginate gem) but I don't know what is the best way to route the requests for that and how to handle two collections in the controller action.

As explained here, you need to set to set different :param_name values for your two calls to will_paginate:

<%= will_paginate @orders.active, :param_name => 'active_page' %>
<%= will_paginate @orders.closed, :param_name => 'closed_page' %>

How about controller? to what collection should I apply `.page()` filter? – Michael D. Jun 07 '14 at 12:51
figured it out. instead of `@orders.active` created instance var `@active_orders = @account.orders.active.page(params['active_page'])`. – Michael D. Jun 07 '14 at 13:23
