Edge Rider was created with two intents:

1. Provides a number of utility methods to facilitate hardcore work with scopes.
2. Provide a stable API for working with scopes across multiple versions of Rails, since Rails has a tradition of breaking details of its scope API every other release.

The gem bundles multiple patches and initializers we've been using for hardcore work with scopes (or relations):

• collect_column
• collect_ids
• to_id_query
• to_sql
• traverse_association

Please refer to the Edge Rider README Show archive.org snapshot for detailed documentation of all included helper methods.
