module Sequel::Model::ClassMethods

Class methods for Sequel::Model that implement basic model functionality.

Constants

FINDER_TYPES

Attributes

allowed_columns[R]

Which columns should be the only columns allowed in a call to a mass assignment method (e.g. set) (default: not set, so all columns not otherwise restricted are allowed).

cache_anonymous_models[RW]

Whether to cache the anonymous models created by Sequel::Model(). This is required for reloading them correctly (avoiding the superclass mismatch). True by default for backwards compatibility.

dataset_method_modules[R]

Array of modules that extend this model's dataset. Stored so that if the model's dataset is changed, it will be extended with all of these modules.

dataset_module_class[R]

The Module subclass to use for #dataset_module blocks.

default_set_fields_options[RW]

The default options to use for Model#set_fields. These are merged with the options given to set_fields.

fast_instance_delete_sql[R]

SQL string fragment used for faster DELETE statement creation when deleting/destroying model instances, or nil if the optimization should not be used. For internal use only.

fast_pk_lookup_sql[R]

SQL string fragment used for faster lookups by primary key, or nil if the optimization should not be used. For internal use only.

instance_dataset[R]

The dataset that instance datasets (#this) are based on. Generally a naked version of the model's dataset limited to one row. For internal use only.

plugins[R]

Array of plugin modules loaded by this class

Sequel::Model.plugins
# => [Sequel::Model, Sequel::Model::Associations]
primary_key[R]

The primary key for the class. Sequel can determine this automatically for many databases, but not all, so you may need to set it manually. If not determined automatically, the default is :id.

raise_on_save_failure[RW]

Whether to raise an error instead of returning nil on a failure to save/create/save_changes/update/destroy due to a validation failure or a before_* hook returning false (default: true).

raise_on_typecast_failure[RW]

Whether to raise an error when unable to typecast data for a column (default: false). This should be set to true if you want to have model setter methods raise errors if the argument cannot be typecast properly.

require_modification[RW]

Whether to raise an error if an UPDATE or DELETE query related to a model instance does not modify exactly 1 row. If set to false, Sequel will not check the number of rows modified (default: true).

require_valid_table[RW]

Requires that all models have valid tables, raising exceptions if creating a model without a valid table backing it. Enabling this will break code like:

class Foo < Sequel::Model
  set_dataset :my_foo
end

As when Sequel::Model is subclassed, before #set_dataset is executed, it will try to get the schema for the foos table, which will raise an exception. You would need to switch to using:

class Foo < Sequel::Model(:my_foo)
end

or:

Foo = Class.new(Sequel::Model)
Foo.set_dataset :my_foo
simple_pk[R]

Should be the literal primary key column name if this Model's table has a simple primary key, or nil if the model has a compound primary key or no primary key.

simple_table[R]

Should be the literal table name if this Model's dataset is a simple table (no select, order, join, etc.), or nil otherwise. This and #simple_pk are used for an optimization in Model.[].

strict_param_setting[RW]

Whether new/set/update and their variants should raise an error if an invalid key is used. A key is invalid if no setter method exists for that key or the access to the setter method is restricted (e.g. due to it being a primary key field). If set to false, silently skip any key where the setter method doesn't exist or access to it is restricted.

typecast_empty_string_to_nil[RW]

Whether to typecast the empty string ('') to nil for columns that are not string or blob. In most cases the empty string would be the way to specify a NULL SQL value in string form (nil.to_s == ''), and an empty string would not usually be typecast correctly for other types, so the default is true.

typecast_on_assignment[RW]

Whether to typecast attribute values on assignment (default: true). If set to false, no typecasting is done, so it will be left up to the database to typecast the value correctly.

use_after_commit_rollback[RW]

Whether to enable the after_commit and after_rollback hooks when saving/destroying instances. On by default, can be turned off for performance reasons or when using prepared transactions (which aren't compatible with after commit/rollback).

use_transactions[RW]

Whether to use a transaction by default when saving/deleting records (default: true). If you are sending database queries in before_* or after_* hooks, you shouldn't change the default setting without a good reason.

Public Instance Methods

Model(source) click to toggle source

Lets you create a Model subclass with its dataset already set. source should be an instance of one of the following classes:

Database

Sets the database for this model to source. Generally only useful when subclassing directly from the returned class, where the name of the subclass sets the table name (which is combined with the Database in source to create the dataset to use)

Dataset

Sets the dataset for this model to source.

other

Sets the table name for this model to source. The class will use the default database for model classes in order to create the dataset.

The purpose of this method is to set the dataset/database automatically for a model class, if the table name doesn't match the implicit name. This is neater than using #set_dataset inside the class, doesn't require a bogus query for the schema, and works when using require_valid_table, or with plugins that assume a model's dataset is valid.

When creating subclasses of Sequel::Model itself, this method is usually called on Sequel itself, using Sequel::Model(:something).

# Using a symbol
class Comment < Sequel::Model(:something)
  table_name # => :something
end

# Using a dataset
class Comment < Sequel::Model(DB1[:something])
  dataset # => DB1[:something]
end

# Using a database
class Comment < Sequel::Model(DB1)
  dataset # => DB1[:comments]
end
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 194
def Model(source)
  if cache_anonymous_models
    cache = Sequel.synchronize{@Model_cache ||= {}}
    if klass = Sequel.synchronize{cache[source]}
      return klass
    end
  end

  klass = Class.new(self)

  if source.is_a?(::Sequel::Database)
    klass.db = source
  else
    klass.set_dataset(source)
  end

  if cache_anonymous_models
    Sequel.synchronize{cache[source] = klass}
  end

  klass
end
[](*args) click to toggle source

Returns the first record from the database matching the conditions. If a hash is given, it is used as the conditions. If another object is given, it finds the first record whose primary key(s) match the given argument(s). If no object is returned by the dataset, returns nil.

Artist[1] # SELECT * FROM artists WHERE id = 1
# => #<Artist {:id=>1, ...}>

Artist[:name=>'Bob'] # SELECT * FROM artists WHERE (name = 'Bob') LIMIT 1
# => #<Artist {:name=>'Bob', ...}>
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 239
def [](*args)
  args = args.first if args.size <= 1
  args.is_a?(Hash) ? first_where(args) : (primary_key_lookup(args) unless args.nil?)
end
call(values) click to toggle source

Initializes a model instance as an existing record. This constructor is used by Sequel to initialize model instances when fetching records. Requires that values be a hash where all keys are symbols. It probably should not be used by external code.

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 248
def call(values)
  o = allocate
  o.instance_variable_set(:@values, values)
  o
end
clear_setter_methods_cache() click to toggle source

Clear the #setter_methods cache

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 255
def clear_setter_methods_cache
  @setter_methods = nil unless frozen?
end
columns() click to toggle source

Returns the columns in the result set in their original order. Generally, this will use the columns determined via the database schema, but in certain cases (e.g. models that are based on a joined dataset) it will use Dataset#columns to find the columns.

Artist.columns
# => [:id, :name]
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 266
def columns
  return @columns if @columns
  return nil if frozen?
  set_columns(dataset.naked.columns)
end
create(values = {}, &block) click to toggle source

Creates instance using new with the given values and block, and saves it.

Artist.create(:name=>'Bob')
# INSERT INTO artists (name) VALUES ('Bob')

Artist.create do |a|
  a.name = 'Jim'
end # INSERT INTO artists (name) VALUES ('Jim')
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 280
def create(values = {}, &block)
  new(values, &block).save
end
dataset() click to toggle source

Returns the dataset associated with the Model class. Raises an Error if there is no associated dataset for this class. In most cases, you don't need to call this directly, as Model proxies many dataset methods to the underlying dataset.

Artist.dataset.all # SELECT * FROM artists
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 290
def dataset
  @dataset || raise(Error, "No dataset associated with #{self}")
end
dataset=(ds) click to toggle source

Alias of #set_dataset

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 295
def dataset=(ds)
  set_dataset(ds)
end
dataset_module(mod = nil) click to toggle source

Extend the dataset with a module, similar to adding a plugin with the methods defined in DatasetMethods. This is the recommended way to add methods to model datasets.

If an argument, it should be a module, and is used to extend the underlying dataset. Otherwise an anonymous module is created, and if a block is given, it is module_evaled, allowing you do define dataset methods directly using the standard ruby def syntax. Returns the module given or the anonymous module created.

# Usage with existing module
Album.dataset_module Sequel::ColumnsIntrospection

# Usage with anonymous module
Album.dataset_module do
  def foo
    :bar
  end
end
Album.dataset.foo
# => :bar
Album.foo
# => :bar

Any anonymous modules created are actually instances of Sequel::Model::DatasetModule (a Module subclass), which allows you to call the subset method on them, which defines a dataset method that adds a filter. There are also a number of other methods with the same names as the dataset methods, which can use to define named dataset methods:

Album.dataset_module do
  subset :released, Sequel.identifier(release_date) <= Sequel::CURRENT_DATE
  order :by_release_date, :release_date
  select :for_select_options, :id, :name, :release_date
end
Album.released.sql
# => "SELECT * FROM artists WHERE (release_date <= CURRENT_DATE)"
Album.by_release_date.sql
# => "SELECT * FROM artists ORDER BY release_date"
Album.for_select_options.sql
# => "SELECT id, name, release_date FROM artists"
Album.released.by_release_date.for_select_options.sql
# => "SELECT id, name, release_date FROM artists WHERE (release_date <= CURRENT_DATE) ORDER BY release_date"

The following methods are supported: distinct, eager, exclude, exclude_having, grep, group, group_and_count, group_append, having, limit, offset, order, order_append, order_prepend, select, select_all, select_append, select_group, where, and server.

Any public methods in the dataset module will have class methods created that call the method on the dataset, assuming that the class method is not already defined.

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 350
def dataset_module(mod = nil)
  if mod
    raise Error, "can't provide both argument and block to Model.dataset_module" if block_given?
    dataset_extend(mod)
    mod
  else
    @dataset_module ||= dataset_module_class.new(self)
    @dataset_module.module_eval(&Proc.new) if block_given?
    dataset_extend(@dataset_module)
    @dataset_module
  end
end
db() click to toggle source

Returns the database associated with the Model class. If this model doesn't have a database associated with it, assumes the superclass's database, or the first object in Sequel::DATABASES. If no Sequel::Database object has been created, raises an error.

Artist.db.transaction do # BEGIN
  Artist.create(:name=>'Bob')
  # INSERT INTO artists (name) VALUES ('Bob')
end # COMMIT
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 373
def db
  return @db if @db
  @db = self == Model ? Sequel.synchronize{DATABASES.first} : superclass.db
  raise(Error, "No database associated with #{self}: have you called Sequel.connect or #{self}.db= ?") unless @db
  @db
end
db=(db) click to toggle source

Sets the database associated with the Model class. If the model has an associated dataset, sets the model's dataset to a dataset on the new database with the same options used by the current dataset. This can be used directly on Sequel::Model to set the default database to be used by subclasses, or to override the database used for specific models:

Sequel::Model.db = DB1
Artist.db = DB2

Note that you should not use this to change the model's database at runtime. If you have that need, you should look into Sequel's sharding support.

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 394
def db=(db)
  @db = db
  set_dataset(db.dataset.clone(@dataset.opts)) if @dataset
end
db_schema() click to toggle source

Returns the cached schema information if available or gets it from the database. This is a hash where keys are column symbols and values are hashes of information related to the column. See Database#schema.

Artist.db_schema
# {:id=>{:type=>:integer, :primary_key=>true, ...},
#  :name=>{:type=>:string, :primary_key=>false, ...}}
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 407
def db_schema
  return @db_schema if @db_schema
  return nil if frozen?
  @db_schema = get_db_schema
end
def_Model(mod) click to toggle source

Define a Model method on the given module that calls the Model method on the receiver. This is how the Sequel::Model() method is defined, and allows you to define Model() methods on other modules, making it easier to have custom model settings for all models under a namespace. Example:

module Foo
  Model = Class.new(Sequel::Model)
  Model.def_Model(self)
  DB = Model.db = Sequel.connect(ENV['FOO_DATABASE_URL'])
  Model.plugin :prepared_statements

  class Bar < Model
    # Uses Foo::DB[:bars]
  end

  class Baz < Model(:my_baz)
    # Uses Foo::DB[:my_baz]
  end
end
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 149
def def_Model(mod)
  model = self
  (class << mod; self; end).send(:define_method, :Model) do |source|
    model.Model(source)
  end
end
def_column_alias(meth, column) click to toggle source

Create a column alias, where the column methods have one name, but the underlying storage uses a different name.

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 415
def def_column_alias(meth, column)
  clear_setter_methods_cache
  overridable_methods_module.module_eval do
    define_method(meth){self[column]}
    define_method("#{meth}="){|v| self[column] = v}
  end
end
def_dataset_method(*args, &block) click to toggle source

If a block is given, define a method on the dataset (if the model currently has an dataset) with the given argument name using the given block. Also define a class method on the model that calls the dataset method. Stores the method name and block so that it can be reapplied if the model's dataset changes.

If a block is not given, just define a class method on the model for each argument that calls the dataset method of the same argument name.

Using #dataset_module is recommended over using this method. In addition to allowing more natural ruby syntax for defining methods manually, it also offers numerous helper methods that make defining common dataset methods more easily, as well as supporting dataset caching (assuming the arguments allow it).

# Add new dataset method and class method that calls it
Artist.def_dataset_method(:by_name){order(:name)}
Artist.where(:name.like('A%')).by_name
Artist.by_name.where(:name.like('A%'))

# Just add a class method that calls an existing dataset method
Artist.def_dataset_method(:paginate)
Artist.paginate(2, 10)
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 444
def def_dataset_method(*args, &block)
  raise(Error, "No arguments given") if args.empty?

  if block
    raise(Error, "Defining a dataset method using a block requires only one argument") if args.length > 1
    dataset_module{define_method(args.first, &block)}
  else
    args.each{|arg| def_model_dataset_method(arg)}
  end
end
dup() click to toggle source
Calls superclass method
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 222
def dup
  Sequel::Deprecation.deprecate("Model.dup", "Create a subclass of the model instead of duping it.")
  # raise(Error, "cannot dup/clone a Sequel::Model class") # SEQUEL5
  super
end
find(*args, &block) click to toggle source

Finds a single record according to the supplied filter. You are encouraged to use Model.[] or Model.first instead of this method.

Artist.find(:name=>'Bob')
# SELECT * FROM artists WHERE (name = 'Bob') LIMIT 1

Artist.find{name > 'M'}
# SELECT * FROM artists WHERE (name > 'M') LIMIT 1
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 463
def find(*args, &block)
  if args.length == 1 && !block
    # Use optimized finder
    first_where(args.first)
  else
    where(*args, &block).first
  end
end
find_or_create(cond, &block) click to toggle source

Like find but invokes create with given conditions when record does not exist. Unlike find in that the block used in this method is not passed to find, but instead is passed to create only if find does not return an object.

Artist.find_or_create(:name=>'Bob')
# SELECT * FROM artists WHERE (name = 'Bob') LIMIT 1
# INSERT INTO artists (name) VALUES ('Bob')

Artist.find_or_create(:name=>'Jim'){|a| a.hometown = 'Sactown'}
# SELECT * FROM artists WHERE (name = 'Jim') LIMIT 1
# INSERT INTO artists (name, hometown) VALUES ('Jim', 'Sactown')
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 484
def find_or_create(cond, &block)
  find(cond) || create(cond, &block)
end
finder(meth=OPTS, opts=OPTS, &block) click to toggle source

Create an optimized finder method using a dataset placeholder literalizer. This pre-computes the SQL to use for the query, except for given arguments.

There are two ways to use this. The recommended way is to pass a symbol that represents a model class method that returns a dataset:

def Artist.by_name(name)
  where(:name=>name)
end

Artist.finder :by_name

This creates an optimized first_by_name method, which you can call normally:

Artist.first_by_name("Joe")

The alternative way to use this to pass your own block:

Artist.finder(:name=>:first_by_name){|pl, ds| ds.where(:name=>pl.arg).limit(1)}

Note that if you pass your own block, you are responsible for manually setting limits if necessary (as shown above).

Options:

:arity

When using a symbol method name, this specifies the arity of the method. This should be used if if the method accepts an arbitrary number of arguments, or the method has default argument values. Note that if the method is defined as a dataset method, the class method Sequel creates accepts an arbitrary number of arguments, so you should use this option in that case. If you want to handle multiple possible arities, you need to call the finder method multiple times with unique :arity and :name methods each time.

:name

The name of the method to create. This must be given if you pass a block. If you use a symbol, this defaults to the symbol prefixed by the type.

:mod

The module in which to create the finder method. Defaults to the singleton class of the model.

:type

The type of query to run. Can be :first, :each, :all, or :get, defaults to :first.

Caveats:

This doesn't handle all possible cases. For example, if you have a method such as:

def Artist.by_name(name)
  name ? where(:name=>name) : exclude(:name=>nil)
end

Then calling a finder without an argument will not work as you expect.

Artist.finder :by_name
Artist.by_name(nil).first
# WHERE (name IS NOT NULL)
Artist.first_by_name(nil)
# WHERE (name IS NULL)

See Dataset::PlaceholderLiteralizer for additional caveats.

plugin(plugin, *args, &block) click to toggle source

Loads a plugin for use with the model class, passing optional arguments to the plugin. If the plugin is a module, load it directly. Otherwise, require the plugin from either sequel/plugins/#{plugin} or sequel_#{plugin}, and then attempt to load the module using a the camelized plugin name under Sequel::Plugins.

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 738
def plugin(plugin, *args, &block)
  m = plugin.is_a?(Module) ? plugin : plugin_module(plugin)
  unless @plugins.include?(m)
    @plugins << m

    extend(m::ClassMethods) if plugin_module_defined?(m, :ClassMethods)
    include(m::InstanceMethods) if plugin_module_defined?(m, :InstanceMethods)
    if plugin_module_defined?(m, :DatasetMethods)
      dataset_extend(m::DatasetMethods, :create_class_methods=>false)
    end
  end
  m.configure(self, *args, &block) if m.respond_to?(:configure)
end
prepared_finder(meth=OPTS, opts=OPTS, &block) click to toggle source

Similar to finder, but uses a prepared statement instead of a placeholder literalizer. This makes the SQL used static (cannot vary per call), but allows binding argument values instead of literalizing them into the SQL query string.

If a block is used with this method, it is instance_execed by the model, and should accept the desired number of placeholder arguments.

The options are the same as the options for finder, with the following exception:

:type

Specifies the type of prepared statement to create

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 804
def prepared_finder(meth=OPTS, opts=OPTS, &block)
  if block
    raise Error, "cannot pass both a method name argument and a block of Model.finder" unless meth.is_a?(Hash)
    meth = meth.merge(:prepare=>true)
  else
    opts = opts.merge(:prepare=>true)
  end
  finder(meth, opts, &block)
end
primary_key_hash(value) click to toggle source

Returns primary key attribute hash. If using a composite primary key value such be an array with values for each primary key in the correct order. For a standard primary key, value should be an object with a compatible type for the key. If the model does not have a primary key, raises an Error.

Artist.primary_key_hash(1) # => {:id=>1}
Artist.primary_key_hash([1, 2]) # => {:id1=>1, :id2=>2}
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 760
def primary_key_hash(value)
  case key = @primary_key
  when Symbol
    {key => value}
  when Array
    hash = {}
    key.zip(Array(value)){|k,v| hash[k] = v}
    hash
  else
    raise(Error, "#{self} does not have a primary key")
  end
end
qualified_primary_key_hash(value, qualifier=table_name) click to toggle source

Return a hash where the keys are qualified column references. Uses the given qualifier if provided, or the #table_name otherwise. This is useful if you plan to join other tables to this table and you want the column references to be qualified.

Artist.where(Artist.qualified_primary_key_hash(1))
# SELECT * FROM artists WHERE (artists.id = 1)
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 780
def qualified_primary_key_hash(value, qualifier=table_name)
  case key = @primary_key
  when Symbol
    {SQL::QualifiedIdentifier.new(qualifier, key) => value}
  when Array
    hash = {}
    key.zip(Array(value)){|k,v| hash[SQL::QualifiedIdentifier.new(qualifier, k)] = v}
    hash
  else
    raise(Error, "#{self} does not have a primary key")
  end
end
restrict_primary_key() click to toggle source

Restrict the setting of the primary key(s) when using mass assignment (e.g. set). Because this is the default, this only make sense to use in a subclass where the parent class has used unrestrict_primary_key.

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 817
def restrict_primary_key
  clear_setter_methods_cache
  @restrict_primary_key = true
end
restrict_primary_key?() click to toggle source

Whether or not setting the primary key(s) when using mass assignment (e.g. set) is restricted, true by default.

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 824
def restrict_primary_key?
  @restrict_primary_key
end
set_allowed_columns(*cols) click to toggle source

Set the columns to allow when using mass assignment (e.g. set). Using this means that any columns not listed here will not be modified. If you have any virtual setter methods (methods that end in =) that you want to be used during mass assignment, they need to be listed here as well (without the =).

It may be better to use a method such as set_only or set_fields that lets you specify the allowed fields per call.

Artist.set_allowed_columns(:name, :hometown)
Artist.set(:name=>'Bob', :hometown=>'Sactown') # No Error
Artist.set(:name=>'Bob', :records_sold=>30000) # Error
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 839
def set_allowed_columns(*cols)
  clear_setter_methods_cache
  @allowed_columns = cols
end
set_dataset(ds, opts=OPTS) click to toggle source

Sets the dataset associated with the Model class. ds can be a Symbol, LiteralString, SQL::Identifier, SQL::QualifiedIdentifier, SQL::AliasedExpression (all specifying a table name in the current database), or a Dataset. If a dataset is used, the model's database is changed to the database of the given dataset. If a dataset is not used, a dataset is created from the current database with the table name given. Other arguments raise an Error. Returns self.

It also attempts to determine the database schema for the model, based on the given dataset.

Note that you should not use this to change the model's dataset at runtime. If you have that need, you should look into Sequel's sharding support.

You should avoid calling this method directly. Instead of doing:

class Artist < Sequel::Model
  set_dataset :tbl_artists
end

You should use:

class Artist < Sequel::Model(:tbl_artists)
end

This ensures the class never uses an invalid dataset. Calling set_dataset after creating a class can create a class with initial invalid dataset, which will break when require_valid_table or certain plugins are used.

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 874
def set_dataset(ds, opts=OPTS)
  inherited = opts[:inherited]
  @dataset = convert_input_dataset(ds)
  @require_modification = Sequel::Model.require_modification.nil? ? @dataset.provides_accurate_rows_matched? : Sequel::Model.require_modification
  if inherited
    self.simple_table = superclass.simple_table
    @columns = superclass.instance_variable_get(:@columns)
    @db_schema = superclass.instance_variable_get(:@db_schema)
  else
    @dataset = @dataset.with_extend(*@dataset_method_modules.reverse) if @dataset_method_modules
    @db_schema = get_db_schema
  end

  reset_instance_dataset
  self
end
set_primary_key(key) click to toggle source

Sets the primary key for this model. You can use either a regular or a composite primary key. To not use a primary key, set to nil or use no_primary_key. On most adapters, Sequel can automatically determine the primary key to use, so this method is not needed often.

class Person < Sequel::Model
  # regular key
  set_primary_key :person_id
end

class Tagging < Sequel::Model
  # composite key
  set_primary_key [:taggable_id, :tag_id]
end
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 905
def set_primary_key(key)
  clear_setter_methods_cache
  if key.is_a?(Array)
    if key.length < 2
      key = key.first
    else
      key = key.dup.freeze
    end
  end
  self.simple_pk = if key && !key.is_a?(Array)
    (@dataset || db).literal(key).freeze
  end
  @primary_key = key
end
setter_methods() click to toggle source

Cache of setter methods to allow by default, in order to speed up new/set/update instance methods.

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 921
def setter_methods
  return @setter_methods if @setter_methods
  @setter_methods = get_setter_methods
end
subset(name, *args, &block) click to toggle source

Sets up a dataset method that returns a filtered dataset. Sometimes thought of as a scope, and like most dataset methods, they can be chained. For example:

Topic.subset(:joes, :username.like('%joe%'))
Topic.subset(:popular){num_posts > 100}
Topic.subset(:recent){created_on > Date.today - 7}

Allows you to do:

Topic.joes.recent.popular

to get topics with a username that includes joe that have more than 100 posts and were created less than 7 days ago.

Both the args given and the block are passed to Dataset#filter.

This method creates dataset methods that do not accept arguments. To create dataset methods that accept arguments, you should use define a method directly inside a dataset_module block.

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 948
def subset(name, *args, &block)
  if block || args.flatten.any?{|arg| arg.is_a?(Proc)}
    def_dataset_method(name){filter(*args, &block)}
  else
    key = :"_subset_#{name}_ds"
    def_dataset_method(name) do
      cached_dataset(key){filter(*args)}
    end
  end
end
table_name() click to toggle source

Returns name of primary table for the dataset. If the table for the dataset is aliased, returns the aliased name.

Artist.table_name # => :artists
Sequel::Model(:foo).table_name # => :foo
Sequel::Model(Sequel[:foo].as(:bar)).table_name # => :bar
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 965
def table_name
  dataset.first_source_alias
end
unrestrict_primary_key() click to toggle source

Allow the setting of the primary key(s) when using the mass assignment methods. Using this method can open up security issues, be very careful before using it.

Artist.set(:id=>1) # Error
Artist.unrestrict_primary_key
Artist.set(:id=>1) # No Error
# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 975
def unrestrict_primary_key

end
with_pk(pk) click to toggle source

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 981
def with_pk(pk)
  primary_key_lookup(pk)
end
with_pk!(pk) click to toggle source

Return the model instance with the primary key, or raise NoMatchingRow if there is no matching record.

# File lib/sequel/model/base.rb, line 986
def with_pk!(pk)
  with_pk(pk) || raise(NoMatchingRow.new(dataset))
