Cannot retrieve group members in pg

[NanoMeko]

[30] pry(main)> g.members.count
(0.7ms) SELECT DISTINCT COUNT(DISTINCT "users"."id") FROM "users" INNER JOIN "group_memberships" ON "users"."id" = "group_memberships"."member_id" WHERE "group_memberships"."group_id" = $1 AND "group_memberships"."group_type" = $2 AND "group_memberships"."member_type" = $3 [["group_id", 4], ["group_type", "Group"], ["member_type", "User"]]
=> 1

so far so good.

Same here.

Seems to be a side-effect of how distinct works in ActiveRecord. See rails/rails#17706

SELECT DISTINCT users.* won't work if there is a json column. The solution would be to switch to using SELECT DISTINCT ON (users.id) users.*

@dwbutler has there been any resolution for this?

[kcollignon]

@NanoMeko were you ever able to resolve this?

[NanoMeko]

Yeap, I decided to build my own group relationships with ActiveRecord 🤷🏽‍♂️
