How to select where ID in Array Rails ActiveRecord without exception

Viewed 150478

When I have array of ids, like

ids = [2,3,5]

and I perform

Comment.find(ids)

everything works fine. But when there is id that doesn't exist, I get an exception. This occurs generaly when I get list of IDs that match some filter and than I do something like

current_user.comments.find(ids)

This time I may have a valid comment ID, which however does not belong to given User, so it is not found and I get an exception.

I've tried find(:all, ids), but it returns all of the records.

The only way I can do it now is

current_user.comments.select { |c| ids.include?(c.id) }

But that seems to me like super inefficient solution.

Is there better way to select ID in Array without getting exception on non-existing record?
