working with `NoMethodError` when trying to use `pluck` with a scope in Rails 7
I'm migrating some code and I recently switched to After trying multiple solutions online, I still can't figure this out... I'm sure I'm missing something obvious here, but I'm working on a project and hit a roadblock. I'm running into a `NoMethodError` when trying to use `pluck` on a scoped ActiveRecord relation in Rails 7. I'm trying to retrieve a list of user emails for users who have activated their accounts. I've defined a scope on my `User` model like this: ```ruby class User < ApplicationRecord scope :activated, -> { where(activated: true) } end ``` When I attempt to run the following query: ```ruby User.activated.pluck(:email) ``` I receive the following behavior: ``` NoMethodError: undefined method `pluck' for #<ActiveRecord::Relation:0x0000560b3a2b87f8> ``` I've confirmed that the `activated` scope returns a proper ActiveRecord relation, as I can successfully call `.count` on it. I've also tried simplifying the scope to just `User.where(activated: true).pluck(:email)` and it works, but I want to understand why it fails with the scope. I checked the Rails documentation and it mentions that `pluck` should work on relations; am I missing something in my implementation? Any insights would be appreciated! My development environment is Linux. I'd really appreciate any guidance on this. This is part of a larger service I'm building. I've been using Ruby for about a year now. How would you solve this? I'm using Ruby LTS in this project. Am I approaching this the right way? I recently upgraded to Ruby 3.11.
