How can I use scopes with Ransack in Rails 3?-Collection of common programming errors

In my Widget model I have the following:

scope :accessible_to, lambda { |user|
  if user.has_role?('admin')
    self.all
  else
    roles = user.roles
    role_ids = []
    roles.each { |r| role_ids  role_ids)
   end
}

Ideally, I would like to use this scope as a filter for Ransack’s search results, so in my controller I have:

def index
  @q = Widget.accessible_to(current_user).search(params[:q])
  @widgets = @q.result.order('created_at DESC')
end

Doing this generates the following error:

undefined method `search’ for Array:0x007ff9b87a0300

I’m guessing that Ransack is looking for an ActiveRecord relation object and not an array. Is there anyway that I can use my scope as a filter for Ransack?
