Jacques Distler 9e909d5be3 Update Rails, rails_xss and Bundler
Update Bundler to 1.0.15.
Update Rails to 2.3.12.
Update rails_xss plugin.

The latter two were the
source of a considerable
amount of grief, as rails_xss
is now MUCH stricter about what
string methods can be used.

Also made it possible to use
rake 0.9.x with Instiki. But
you probably REALLY want to use

 ruby bundle exec rake ...

instead of just saying

 rake ....

# without passing on the exception.
#
# For example, you could do this in your controller to rollback a transaction:
#
# class BooksController < ActionController::Base
# def create
# Book.transaction do
# book = Book.new(params[:book])
# book.save!
# if today_is_friday?
# # The system must fail on Friday so that our support department
# # won't be out of job. We silently rollback this transaction
# # without telling the user.
# raise ActiveRecord::Rollback, "Call tech support!"
# end

# # by ActiveRecord::Base.transaction, so this line will still be reached
# # even on Friday.

# Active Record objects don't specify their attributes directly, but rather infer them from the table definition with
# which they're linked. Adding, removing, and changing attributes and their type is done directly in the database. Any change
# is instantly reflected in the Active Record objects. The mapping that binds a given Active Record class to a certain
# database table will happen automatically in most common cases, but can be overwritten for the uncommon ones.
#
# See the mapping rules in table_name and the full example in link:files/README.html for more insight.
#
# == Creation
#
# Active Records accept constructor parameters either in a hash or as a block. The hash method is especially useful when
# you're receiving the data from somewhere else, like an HTTP request. It works like this:
#
# user = User.new(:name => "David", :occupation => "Code Artist")
# user.name # => "David"
#
# You can also use block initialization:
#
# user = User.new do |u|
# u.name = "David"
# u.occupation = "Code Artist"
# end
#
# And of course you can just create a bare object and specify the attributes after the fact:
#
# user = User.new
# user.name = "David"
# user.occupation = "Code Artist"
#
# == Conditions
#
# Conditions can either be specified as a string, array, or hash representing the WHERE-part of an SQL statement.
# The array form is to be used when the condition input is tainted and requires sanitization. The string form can
# be used for statements that don't involve tainted data. The hash form works much like the array form, except
# only equality and range is possible. Examples:
#
# class User < ActiveRecord::Base
# def self.authenticate_unsafely(user_name, password)
# find(:first, :conditions => "user_name = '#{user_name}' AND password = '#{password}'")
# end
#
# def self.authenticate_safely(user_name, password)
# find(:first, :conditions => [ "user_name = ? AND password = ?", user_name, password ])
# end
#
# def self.authenticate_safely_simply(user_name, password)
# find(:first, :conditions => { :user_name => user_name, :password => password })
# end
# end
#
# The <tt>authenticate_unsafely</tt> method inserts the parameters directly into the query and is thus susceptible to SQL-injection
# attacks if the <tt>user_name</tt> and +password+ parameters come directly from an HTTP request. The <tt>authenticate_safely</tt> and
# <tt>authenticate_safely_simply</tt> both will sanitize the <tt>user_name</tt> and +password+ before inserting them in the query,
# which will ensure that an attacker can't escape the query and fake the login (or worse).
#
# When using multiple parameters in the conditions, it can easily become hard to read exactly what the fourth or fifth
# question mark is supposed to represent. In those cases, you can resort to named bind variables instead. That's done by replacing
# the question marks with symbols and supplying a hash with values for the matching symbol keys:
#
# Company.find(:first, :conditions => [
# "id = :id AND name = :name AND division = :division AND created_at > :accounting_date",
# { :id => 3, :name => "37signals", :division => "First", :accounting_date => '2005-01-01' }
# ])
#
# Similarly, a simple hash without a statement will generate conditions based on equality with the SQL AND
# operator. For instance:
#
# Student.find(:all, :conditions => { :first_name => "Harvey", :status => 1 })
# Student.find(:all, :conditions => params[:student])
#
# A range may be used in the hash to use the SQL BETWEEN operator:
#
# Student.find(:all, :conditions => { :grade => 9..12 })
#
# An array may be used in the hash to use the SQL IN operator:
#
# Student.find(:all, :conditions => { :grade => [9,11,12] })
#
# == Overwriting default accessors
#
# All column values are automatically available through basic accessors on the Active Record object, but sometimes you
# want to specialize this behavior. This can be done by overwriting the default accessors (using the same
# name as the attribute) and calling <tt>read_attribute(attr_name)</tt> and <tt>write_attribute(attr_name, value)</tt> to actually change things.
# Example:
#
# class Song < ActiveRecord::Base
# # Uses an integer of seconds to hold the length of the song
#
# def length=(minutes)
# write_attribute(:length, minutes.to_i * 60)
# end
#
# def length
# read_attribute(:length) / 60
# end
# end
#
# You can alternatively use <tt>self[:attribute]=(value)</tt> and <tt>self[:attribute]</tt> instead of <tt>write_attribute(:attribute, value)</tt> and
# <tt>read_attribute(:attribute)</tt> as a shorter form.
#
# == Attribute query methods
#
# In addition to the basic accessors, query methods are also automatically available on the Active Record object.
# Query methods allow you to test whether an attribute value is present.
#
# For example, an Active Record User with the <tt>name</tt> attribute has a <tt>name?</tt> method that you can call
# to determine whether the user has a name:
#
# user = User.new(:name => "David")
# user.name? # => true
#
# anonymous = User.new(:name => "")
# anonymous.name? # => false
#
# == Accessing attributes before they have been typecasted
#
# Sometimes you want to be able to read the raw attribute data without having the column-determined typecast run its course first.
# That can be done by using the <tt><attribute>_before_type_cast</tt> accessors that all attributes have. For example, if your Account model
# has a <tt>balance</tt> attribute, you can call <tt>account.balance_before_type_cast</tt> or <tt>account.id_before_type_cast</tt>.
#
# This is especially useful in validation situations where the user might supply a string for an integer field and you want to display
# the original string back in an error message. Accessing the attribute normally would typecast the string to 0, which isn't what you
# want.
#
# == Dynamic attribute-based finders
#
# Dynamic attribute-based finders are a cleaner way of getting (and/or creating) objects by simple queries without turning to SQL. They work by
# appending the name of an attribute to <tt>find_by_</tt>, <tt>find_last_by_</tt>, or <tt>find_all_by_</tt>, so you get finders like <tt>Person.find_by_user_name</tt>,
# <tt>Person.find_all_by_last_name</tt>, and <tt>Payment.find_by_transaction_id</tt>. So instead of writing
# <tt>Person.find(:first, :conditions => ["user_name = ?", user_name])</tt>, you just do <tt>Person.find_by_user_name(user_name)</tt>.
# And instead of writing <tt>Person.find(:all, :conditions => ["last_name = ?", last_name])</tt>, you just do <tt>Person.find_all_by_last_name(last_name)</tt>.
#
# It's also possible to use multiple attributes in the same find by separating them with "_and_", so you get finders like
# <tt>Person.find_by_user_name_and_password</tt> or even <tt>Payment.find_by_purchaser_and_state_and_country</tt>. So instead of writing
# <tt>Person.find(:first, :conditions => ["user_name = ? AND password = ?", user_name, password])</tt>, you just do
# <tt>Person.find_by_user_name_and_password(user_name, password)</tt>.
#
# It's even possible to use all the additional parameters to find. For example, the full interface for <tt>Payment.find_all_by_amount</tt>
# is actually <tt>Payment.find_all_by_amount(amount, options)</tt>. And the full interface to <tt>Person.find_by_user_name</tt> is
# actually <tt>Person.find_by_user_name(user_name, options)</tt>. So you could call <tt>Payment.find_all_by_amount(50, :order => "created_on")</tt>.
# Also you may call <tt>Payment.find_last_by_amount(amount, options)</tt> returning the last record matching that amount and options.
#
# The same dynamic finder style can be used to create the object if it doesn't already exist. This dynamic finder is called with
# <tt>find_or_create_by_</tt> and will return the object if it already exists and otherwise creates it, then returns it. Protected attributes won't be set unless they are given in a block. For example:
#
# # No 'Summer' tag exists
# Tag.find_or_create_by_name("Summer") # equal to Tag.create(:name => "Summer")
#
# # Now the 'Summer' tag does exist
# Tag.find_or_create_by_name("Summer") # equal to Tag.find_by_name("Summer")
#
# # Now 'Bob' exist and is an 'admin'
# User.find_or_create_by_name('Bob', :age => 40) { |u| u.admin = true }
#
# Use the <tt>find_or_initialize_by_</tt> finder if you want to return a new record without saving it first. Protected attributes won't be set unless they are given in a block. For example:
#
# # No 'Winter' tag exists
# winter = Tag.find_or_initialize_by_name("Winter")
# winter.new_record? # true
#
# To find by a subset of the attributes to be used for instantiating a new object, pass a hash instead of
# a list of parameters. For example:
#
# Tag.find_or_create_by_name(:name => "rails", :creator => current_user)
#
# That will either find an existing tag named "rails", or create a new one while setting the user that created it.
#
# == Saving arrays, hashes, and other non-mappable objects in text columns
#
# Active Record can serialize any object in text columns using YAML. To do so, you must specify this with a call to the class method +serialize+.
# This makes it possible to store arrays, hashes, and other non-mappable objects without doing any additional work. Example:
#
# class User < ActiveRecord::Base
# serialize :preferences
# end
#
# user = User.create(:preferences => { "background" => "black", "display" => large })
# User.find(user.id).preferences # => { "background" => "black", "display" => large }
#
# You can also specify a class option as the second parameter that'll raise an exception if a serialized object is retrieved as a
# descendant of a class not in the hierarchy. Example:
#
# class User < ActiveRecord::Base
# serialize :preferences, Hash
# end
#
# user = User.create(:preferences => %w( one two three ))
# User.find(user.id).preferences # raises SerializationTypeMismatch
#
# == Single table inheritance
#
# Active Record allows inheritance by storing the name of the class in a column that by default is named "type" (can be changed
# by overwriting <tt>Base.inheritance_column</tt>). This means that an inheritance looking like this:
#
# class Company < ActiveRecord::Base; end
# class Firm < Company; end
# class Client < Company; end
# class PriorityClient < Client; end
#
# When you do <tt>Firm.create(:name => "37signals")</tt>, this record will be saved in the companies table with type = "Firm". You can then
# fetch this row again using <tt>Company.find(:first, "name = '37signals'")</tt> and it will return a Firm object.
#
# If you don't have a type column defined in your table, single-table inheritance won't be triggered. In that case, it'll work just
# like normal subclasses with no special magic for differentiating between them or reloading the right type with find.
#
# Note, all the attributes for all the cases are kept in the same table. Read more:
# http://www.martinfowler.com/eaaCatalog/singleTableInheritance.html
#
# == Connection to multiple databases in different models
#
# Connections are usually created through ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection and retrieved by ActiveRecord::Base.connection.
# All classes inheriting from ActiveRecord::Base will use this connection. But you can also set a class-specific connection.
# For example, if Course is an ActiveRecord::Base, but resides in a different database, you can just say <tt>Course.establish_connection</tt>
# and Course and all of its subclasses will use this connection instead.
#
# This feature is implemented by keeping a connection pool in ActiveRecord::Base that is a Hash indexed by the class. If a connection is
# requested, the retrieve_connection method will go up the class-hierarchy until a connection is found in the connection pool.
#
# == Exceptions
#
# * ActiveRecordError - Generic error class and superclass of all other errors raised by Active Record.
# * AdapterNotSpecified - The configuration hash used in <tt>establish_connection</tt> didn't include an
# <tt>:adapter</tt> key.
# * AdapterNotFound - The <tt>:adapter</tt> key used in <tt>establish_connection</tt> specified a non-existent adapter
# (or a bad spelling of an existing one).
# * AssociationTypeMismatch - The object assigned to the association wasn't of the type specified in the association definition.
# * SerializationTypeMismatch - The serialized object wasn't of the class specified as the second parameter.
# * ConnectionNotEstablished+ - No connection has been established. Use <tt>establish_connection</tt> before querying.
# * RecordNotFound - No record responded to the +find+ method. Either the row with the given ID doesn't exist
# or the row didn't meet the additional restrictions. Some +find+ calls do not raise this exception to signal
# nothing was found, please check its documentation for further details.
# * StatementInvalid - The database server rejected the SQL statement. The precise error is added in the message.
# * MultiparameterAssignmentErrors - Collection of errors that occurred during a mass assignment using the
# <tt>attributes=</tt> method. The +errors+ property of this exception contains an array of AttributeAssignmentError
# objects that should be inspected to determine which attributes triggered the errors.
# * AttributeAssignmentError - An error occurred while doing a mass assignment through the <tt>attributes=</tt> method.
# You can inspect the +attribute+ property of the exception object to determine which attribute triggered the error.
#
# *Note*: The attributes listed are class-level attributes (accessible from both the class and instance level).
# So it's possible to assign a logger to the class through <tt>Base.logger=</tt> which will then be used by all
# instances in the current object space.

# Find operates with four different retrieval approaches:
#
# * Find by id - This can either be a specific id (1), a list of ids (1, 5, 6), or an array of ids ([5, 6, 10]).
# If no record can be found for all of the listed ids, then RecordNotFound will be raised.
# * Find first - This will return the first record matched by the options used. These options can either be specific
# conditions or merely an order. If no record can be matched, +nil+ is returned. Use
# <tt>Model.find(:first, *args)</tt> or its shortcut <tt>Model.first(*args)</tt>.
# * Find last - This will return the last record matched by the options used. These options can either be specific
# conditions or merely an order. If no record can be matched, +nil+ is returned. Use
# <tt>Model.find(:last, *args)</tt> or its shortcut <tt>Model.last(*args)</tt>.
# * Find all - This will return all the records matched by the options used.
# If no records are found, an empty array is returned. Use
# <tt>Model.find(:all, *args)</tt> or its shortcut <tt>Model.all(*args)</tt>.
#
# All approaches accept an options hash as their last parameter.
#
# ==== Parameters
#
# * <tt>:conditions</tt> - An SQL fragment like "administrator = 1", <tt>[ "user_name = ?", username ]</tt>, or <tt>["user_name = :user_name", { :user_name => user_name }]</tt>. See conditions in the intro.
# * <tt>:order</tt> - An SQL fragment like "created_at DESC, name".
# * <tt>:group</tt> - An attribute name by which the result should be grouped. Uses the <tt>GROUP BY</tt> SQL-clause.
# * <tt>:having</tt> - Combined with +:group+ this can be used to filter the records that a <tt>GROUP BY</tt> returns. Uses the <tt>HAVING</tt> SQL-clause.
# * <tt>:limit</tt> - An integer determining the limit on the number of rows that should be returned.
# * <tt>:offset</tt> - An integer determining the offset from where the rows should be fetched. So at 5, it would skip rows 0 through 4.
# * <tt>:joins</tt> - Either an SQL fragment for additional joins like "LEFT JOIN comments ON comments.post_id = id" (rarely needed),
# named associations in the same form used for the <tt>:include</tt> option, which will perform an <tt>INNER JOIN</tt> on the associated table(s),
# or an array containing a mixture of both strings and named associations.
# If the value is a string, then the records will be returned read-only since they will have attributes that do not correspond to the table's columns.
# Pass <tt>:readonly => false</tt> to override.
# * <tt>:include</tt> - Names associations that should be loaded alongside. The symbols named refer
# to already defined associations. See eager loading under Associations.
# * <tt>:select</tt> - By default, this is "*" as in "SELECT * FROM", but can be changed if you, for example, want to do a join but not
# include the joined columns. Takes a string with the SELECT SQL fragment (e.g. "id, name").
# * <tt>:from</tt> - By default, this is the table name of the class, but can be changed to an alternate table name (or even the name
# of a database view).
# * <tt>:readonly</tt> - Mark the returned records read-only so they cannot be saved or updated.
# * <tt>:lock</tt> - An SQL fragment like "FOR UPDATE" or "LOCK IN SHARE MODE".
# <tt>:lock => true</tt> gives connection's default exclusive lock, usually "FOR UPDATE".
#

# provide since database rows are unordered. Give an explicit <tt>:order</tt>
# to ensure the results are sorted.
#
# ==== Examples
#
# # find first
# Person.find(:first) # returns the first object fetched by SELECT * FROM people
# Person.find(:first, :conditions => [ "user_name = ?", user_name])
# Person.find(:first, :conditions => [ "user_name = :u", { :u => user_name }])
# Person.find(:first, :order => "created_on DESC", :offset => 5)
#
# # find last
# Person.find(:last) # returns the last object fetched by SELECT * FROM people
# Person.find(:last, :conditions => [ "user_name = ?", user_name])
# Person.find(:last, :order => "created_on DESC", :offset => 5)
#
# # find all
# Person.find(:all) # returns an array of objects for all the rows fetched by SELECT * FROM people
# Person.find(:all, :conditions => [ "category IN (?)", categories], :limit => 50)
# Person.find(:all, :conditions => { :friends => ["Bob", "Steve", "Fred"] }
# Person.find(:all, :offset => 10, :limit => 10)
# Person.find(:all, :include => [ :account, :friends ])
# Person.find(:all, :group => "category")
#
# Example for find with a lock: Imagine two concurrent transactions:
# each will read <tt>person.visits == 2</tt>, add 1 to it, and save, resulting
# in two saves of <tt>person.visits = 3</tt>. By locking the row, the second
# transaction has to wait until the first is finished; we get the
# expected <tt>person.visits == 4</tt>.
#
# Person.transaction do
# person = Person.find(1, :lock => true)
# person.visits += 1
# person.save!
# end

# Executes a custom SQL query against your database and returns all the results. The results will
# be returned as an array with columns requested encapsulated as attributes of the model you call
# this method from. If you call <tt>Product.find_by_sql</tt> then the results will be returned in
# a Product object with the attributes you specified in the SQL query.
#
# If you call a complicated SQL query which spans multiple tables the columns specified by the
# SELECT will be attributes of the model, whether or not they are columns of the corresponding
# table.
#
# The +sql+ parameter is a full SQL query as a string. It will be called as is, there will be
# no database agnostic conversions performed. This should be a last resort because using, for example,
# MySQL specific terms will lock you to using that particular database engine or require you to
# change your call if you switch engines.
#
# ==== Examples
# # A simple SQL query spanning multiple tables
# Post.find_by_sql "SELECT p.title, c.author FROM posts p, comments c WHERE p.id = c.post_id"
# > [#<Post:0x36bff9c @attributes={"title"=>"Ruby Meetup", "first_name"=>"Quentin"}>, ...]
#
# # You can use the same string replacement techniques as you can with ActiveRecord#find
# Post.find_by_sql ["SELECT title FROM posts WHERE author = ? AND created > ?", author_id, start_date]
# > [#<Post:0x36bff9c @attributes={"first_name"=>"The Cheap Man Buys Twice"}>, ...]

# Returns true if a record exists in the table that matches the +id+ or
# conditions given, or false otherwise. The argument can take five forms:
#
# * Integer - Finds the record with this primary key.
# * String - Finds the record with a primary key corresponding to this
# string (such as <tt>'5'</tt>).
# * Array - Finds the record that matches these +find+-style conditions
# (such as <tt>['color = ?', 'red']</tt>).
# * Hash - Finds the record that matches these +find+-style conditions
# (such as <tt>{:color => 'red'}</tt>).
# * No args - Returns false if the table is empty, true otherwise.
#
# For more information about specifying conditions as a Hash or Array,
# see the Conditions section in the introduction to ActiveRecord::Base.
#
# Note: You can't pass in a condition as a string (like <tt>name =
# 'Jamie'</tt>), since it would be sanitized and then queried against
# the primary key column, like <tt>id = 'name = \'Jamie\''</tt>.
#
# ==== Examples
# Person.exists?(5)
# Person.exists?('5')
# Person.exists?(:name => "David")
# Person.exists?(['name LIKE ?', "%#{query}%"])
# Person.exists?

# Creates an object (or multiple objects) and saves it to the database, if validations pass.
# The resulting object is returned whether the object was saved successfully to the database or not.
#
# The +attributes+ parameter can be either be a Hash or an Array of Hashes. These Hashes describe the
# attributes on the objects that are to be created.
#
# ==== Examples
# # Create a single new object
# User.create(:first_name => 'Jamie')
#
# # Create an Array of new objects
# User.create([{ :first_name => 'Jamie' }, { :first_name => 'Jeremy' }])

# User.create(:first_name => 'Jamie') do |u|
# u.is_admin = false

# Updates an object (or multiple objects) and saves it to the database, if validations pass.
# The resulting object is returned whether the object was saved successfully to the database or not.
#
# ==== Parameters
#
# * +id+ - This should be the id or an array of ids to be updated.
# * +attributes+ - This should be a hash of attributes to be set on the object, or an array of hashes.
#
# ==== Examples
#
# # Updating one record:
# Person.update(15, :user_name => 'Samuel', :group => 'expert')
#
# # Updating multiple records:
# people = { 1 => { "first_name" => "David" }, 2 => { "first_name" => "Jeremy" } }
# Person.update(people.keys, people.values)
def update(id, attributes)

end
end
# Deletes the row with a primary key matching the +id+ argument, using a
# SQL +DELETE+ statement, and returns the number of rows deleted. Active
# Record objects are not instantiated, so the object's callbacks are not
# executed, including any <tt>:dependent</tt> association options or
# Observer methods.
#
# You can delete multiple rows at once by passing an Array of <tt>id</tt>s.
#
# Note: Although it is often much faster than the alternative,
# <tt>#destroy</tt>, skipping callbacks might bypass business logic in
# your application that ensures referential integrity or performs other
# essential jobs.
#
# ==== Examples
#
# # Delete a single row
# Todo.delete(1)
#
# # Delete multiple rows
# Todo.delete([2,3,4])
def delete(id)
delete_all([ "#{connection.quote_column_name(primary_key)} IN (?)", id ])
end
# Destroy an object (or multiple objects) that has the given id, the object is instantiated first,
# therefore all callbacks and filters are fired off before the object is deleted. This method is
# less efficient than ActiveRecord#delete but allows cleanup methods and other actions to be run.
#
# This essentially finds the object (or multiple objects) with the given id, creates a new object
# from the attributes, and then calls destroy on it.
#
# ==== Parameters
#
# * +id+ - Can be either an Integer or an Array of Integers.
#
# ==== Examples
#
# # Destroy a single object
# Todo.destroy(1)
#
# # Destroy multiple objects
# todos = [1,2,3]
# Todo.destroy(todos)
def destroy(id)
if id.is_a?(Array)
id.map { |one_id| destroy(one_id) }
else
find(id).destroy
end
end
# Updates all records with details given if they match a set of conditions supplied, limits and order can
# also be supplied. This method constructs a single SQL UPDATE statement and sends it straight to the
# database. It does not instantiate the involved models and it does not trigger Active Record callbacks.
#
# ==== Parameters
#
# * +updates+ - A string of column and value pairs that will be set on any records that match conditions. This creates the SET clause of the generated SQL.
# * +conditions+ - An SQL fragment like "administrator = 1" or [ "user_name = ?", username ]. See conditions in the intro for more info.
# * +options+ - Additional options are <tt>:limit</tt> and <tt>:order</tt>, see the examples for usage.
#
# ==== Examples
#
# # Update all billing objects with the 3 different attributes given
# Billing.update_all( "category = 'authorized', approved = 1, author = 'David'" )
#
# # Update records that match our conditions
# Billing.update_all( "author = 'David'", "title LIKE '%Rails%'" )
#
# # Update records that match our conditions but limit it to 5 ordered by date
# Billing.update_all( "author = 'David'", "title LIKE '%Rails%'",
# :order => 'created_at', :limit => 5 )

# Destroys the records matching +conditions+ by instantiating each
# record and calling its +destroy+ method. Each object's callbacks are
# executed (including <tt>:dependent</tt> association options and
# +before_destroy+/+after_destroy+ Observer methods). Returns the
# collection of objects that were destroyed; each will be frozen, to
# reflect that no changes should be made (since they can't be
# persisted).
#
# Note: Instantiation, callback execution, and deletion of each
# record can be time consuming when you're removing many records at
# once. It generates at least one SQL +DELETE+ query per record (or
# possibly more, to enforce your callbacks). If you want to delete many
# rows quickly, without concern for their associations or callbacks, use
# +delete_all+ instead.
#
# ==== Parameters
#
# * +conditions+ - A string, array, or hash that specifies which records
# to destroy. If omitted, all records are destroyed. See the
# Conditions section in the introduction to ActiveRecord::Base for
# more information.
#
# ==== Examples
#
# Person.destroy_all("last_login < '2004-04-04'")
# Person.destroy_all(:status => "inactive")
def destroy_all(conditions = nil)
find(:all, :conditions => conditions).each { |object| object.destroy }
end
# Deletes the records matching +conditions+ without instantiating the records first, and hence not
# calling the +destroy+ method nor invoking callbacks. This is a single SQL DELETE statement that
# goes straight to the database, much more efficient than +destroy_all+. Be careful with relations
# though, in particular <tt>:dependent</tt> rules defined on associations are not honored. Returns
# the number of rows affected.
#
# ==== Parameters
#
# * +conditions+ - Conditions are specified the same way as with +find+ method.
#
# ==== Example
#
# Post.delete_all("person_id = 5 AND (category = 'Something' OR category = 'Else')")
# Post.delete_all(["person_id = ? AND (category = ? OR category = ?)", 5, 'Something', 'Else'])
#
# Both calls delete the affected posts all at once with a single DELETE statement. If you need to destroy dependent
# associations or call your <tt>before_*</tt> or +after_destroy+ callbacks, use the +destroy_all+ method instead.
def delete_all(conditions = nil)
sql = "DELETE FROM #{quoted_table_name} "
add_conditions!(sql, conditions, scope(:find))
connection.delete(sql, "#{name} Delete all")
end
# Returns the result of an SQL statement that should only include a COUNT(*) in the SELECT part.
# The use of this method should be restricted to complicated SQL queries that can't be executed
# using the ActiveRecord::Calculations class methods. Look into those before using this.
#
# ==== Parameters
#
# * +sql+ - An SQL statement which should return a count query from the database, see the example below.
#
# ==== Examples
#
# Product.count_by_sql "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM sales s, customers c WHERE s.customer_id = c.id"
def count_by_sql(sql)
sql = sanitize_conditions(sql)
connection.select_value(sql, "#{name} Count").to_i
end
# Resets one or more counter caches to their correct value using an SQL
# count query. This is useful when adding new counter caches, or if the
# counter has been corrupted or modified directly by SQL.
#
# ==== Parameters
#
# * +id+ - The id of the object you wish to reset a counter on.
# * +counters+ - One or more counter names to reset
#
# ==== Examples
#
# # For Post with id #1 records reset the comments_count
# Post.reset_counters(1, :comments)
def reset_counters(id, *counters)
object = find(id)
counters.each do |association|
child_class = reflect_on_association(association.to_sym).klass
belongs_name = self.name.demodulize.underscore.to_sym
counter_name = child_class.reflect_on_association(belongs_name).counter_cache_column
value = object.send(association).count
connection.update(<<-CMD, "#{name} UPDATE")
UPDATE #{quoted_table_name}
SET #{connection.quote_column_name(counter_name)} = #{value}
WHERE #{connection.quote_column_name(primary_key)} = #{quote_value(object.id)}
CMD
end
return true
end
# A generic "counter updater" implementation, intended primarily to be
# used by increment_counter and decrement_counter, but which may also
# be useful on its own. It simply does a direct SQL update for the record
# with the given ID, altering the given hash of counters by the amount
# given by the corresponding value:
#
# ==== Parameters
#
# * +id+ - The id of the object you wish to update a counter on or an Array of ids.
# * +counters+ - An Array of Hashes containing the names of the fields
# to update as keys and the amount to update the field by as values.
#
# ==== Examples
#
# # For the Post with id of 5, decrement the comment_count by 1, and
# # increment the action_count by 1
# Post.update_counters 5, :comment_count => -1, :action_count => 1
# # Executes the following SQL:
# # UPDATE posts
# # SET comment_count = comment_count - 1,
# # action_count = action_count + 1
# # WHERE id = 5
#
# # For the Posts with id of 10 and 15, increment the comment_count by 1
# Post.update_counters [10, 15], :comment_count => 1
# # Executes the following SQL:
# # UPDATE posts
# # SET comment_count = comment_count + 1,
# # WHERE id IN (10, 15)
def update_counters(id, counters)
updates = counters.map do |counter_name, value|
operator = value < 0 ? '-' : '+'
quoted_column = connection.quote_column_name(counter_name)
"#{quoted_column} = COALESCE(#{quoted_column}, 0) #{operator} #{value.abs}"
end
update_all(updates.join(', '), primary_key => id )
end
# Increment a number field by one, usually representing a count.
#
# This is used for caching aggregate values, so that they don't need to be computed every time.
# For example, a DiscussionBoard may cache post_count and comment_count otherwise every time the board is
# shown it would have to run an SQL query to find how many posts and comments there are.
#
# ==== Parameters
#
# * +counter_name+ - The name of the field that should be incremented.
# * +id+ - The id of the object that should be incremented.
#
# ==== Examples
#
# # Increment the post_count column for the record with an id of 5
# DiscussionBoard.increment_counter(:post_count, 5)
def increment_counter(counter_name, id)
update_counters(id, counter_name => 1)
end
# Decrement a number field by one, usually representing a count.
#
# This works the same as increment_counter but reduces the column value by 1 instead of increasing it.
#
# ==== Parameters
#
# * +counter_name+ - The name of the field that should be decremented.
# * +id+ - The id of the object that should be decremented.
#
# ==== Examples
#
# # Decrement the post_count column for the record with an id of 5
# DiscussionBoard.decrement_counter(:post_count, 5)
def decrement_counter(counter_name, id)
update_counters(id, counter_name => -1)

#
# ==== Parameters
#
# * +attr_name+ - The field name that should be serialized.
# * +class_name+ - Optional, class name that the object type should be equal to.
#
# ==== Example
# # Serialize a preferences attribute
# class User
# serialize :preferences
# end
def serialize(attr_name, class_name = Object)
serialized_attributes[attr_name.to_s] = class_name
end
# Returns a hash of all the attributes that have been specified for serialization as keys and their class restriction as values.

# Guesses the table name (in forced lower-case) based on the name of the class in the inheritance hierarchy descending
# directly from ActiveRecord::Base. So if the hierarchy looks like: Reply < Message < ActiveRecord::Base, then Message is used
# to guess the table name even when called on Reply. The rules used to do the guess are handled by the Inflector class
# in Active Support, which knows almost all common English inflections. You can add new inflections in config/initializers/inflections.rb.
#
# Nested classes are given table names prefixed by the singular form of
# the parent's table name. Enclosing modules are not considered.
#
# ==== Examples
#
# class Invoice < ActiveRecord::Base; end;
# file class table_name
# invoice.rb Invoice invoices
#
# class Invoice < ActiveRecord::Base; class Lineitem < ActiveRecord::Base; end; end;
# file class table_name
# invoice.rb Invoice::Lineitem invoice_lineitems
#
# module Invoice; class Lineitem < ActiveRecord::Base; end; end;
# file class table_name
# invoice/lineitem.rb Invoice::Lineitem lineitems
#
# Additionally, the class-level +table_name_prefix+ is prepended and the
# +table_name_suffix+ is appended. So if you have "myapp_" as a prefix,
# the table name guess for an Invoice class becomes "myapp_invoices".
# Invoice::Lineitem becomes "myapp_invoice_lineitems".
#
# You can also overwrite this class method to allow for unguessable
# links, such as a Mouse class with a link to a "mice" table. Example:
#
# class Mouse < ActiveRecord::Base
# set_table_name "mice"
