activerecord-mysql-adapter-flags
MysqlAdapter patch to allow passing driver flags from config/database.yml.
Why
Needed to enable mysql driver compression for a few projects. The default MysqlAdapter shipped with Rails doesn’t allow for flags. Therefore, this is a simple patch to allow Mysql::CONST’s to be defined in the database.yml file.
Example
config/database.yml
development:
adapter: mysql
username: dbuser
password: "secert"
host: localhost
database: test
flags: "CLIENT_MULTI_RESULTS, CLIENT_COMPRESS"
Note: the flags get OR’d together before passing onto the connect method. If the flag const doesn’t exist in the Mysql class, it will be ignored.
TODO’s
-
write some specs
-
test against more versions of ActiveRecord
-
find cleaner way to implement other than opening the class and overriding custom initializer.
Note on Patches/Pull Requests
-
Fork the project.
-
Make your feature addition or bug fix.
-
Add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.
-
Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
-
Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
