Use rails_admin for Sorting fields

Question

Is there a way to sort the fields in rails admin. Not like sorting to view, but sorting in model?

For better understanding:

You have a list of items.

• Arthur Dent [Sort ID: 1]
• Ford Prefect [Sort ID: 2]
• Tricia Marie McMillan [Sort ID: 3]

Now you rearrange them as rails_admin:

• Tricia Marie McMillan [Sort ID: 1]
• Arthur Dent [Sort ID: 2]
• Ford Prefect [Sort ID: 3]

And the Sort ID automatically switches.

I hope you understand what I mean, a little hard to describe

Answer 1

By default, rows are sorted by id in reverse order. You can change the default behavior to two methods: sort_by and sort_reverse

RailsAdmin.config do |config| config.model Player do list do sort_by :name field :name do sort_reverse false end end end end
