def assert_valid_value(*); end

#binary? ⇒ Boolean

These predicates are not documented, as I need to look further into their use, and see if they can be removed entirely.

Returns:

#cast(value) ⇒ Object

Type casts a value from user input (e.g. from a setter). This value may be a string from the form builder, or a ruby object passed to a setter. There is currently no way to differentiate between which source it came from.

The return value of this method will be returned from ActiveRecord::AttributeMethods::Read#read_attribute. See also: Value#cast_value.

value The raw input, as provided to the attribute setter.

# File 'lib/active_fedora/type/value.rb', line 36

def cast(value)
  cast_value(value) unless value.nil?
end

#changed?(old_value, new_value, _new_value_before_type_cast) ⇒ Boolean

Determines whether a value has changed for dirty checking. old_value and new_value will always be type-cast. Types should not need to override this method.

Returns:

65
 
# File 'lib/active_fedora/type/value.rb', line 63

def changed?(old_value, new_value, _new_value_before_type_cast)
  old_value != new_value
end

#changed_in_place?(_raw_old_value, _new_value) ⇒ Boolean

Determines whether the mutable value has been modified since it was read. Returns false by default. If your type returns an object which could be mutated, you should override this method. You will need to either:

  • pass new_value to Value#serialize and compare it to raw_old_value

or

  • pass raw_old_value to Value#deserialize and compare it to new_value

raw_old_value The original value, before being passed to deserialize.

new_value The current value, after type casting.

Returns:

# File 'lib/active_fedora/type/value.rb', line 84

def changed_in_place?(_raw_old_value, _new_value)
  false
end

#deserialize(value) ⇒ Object

Converts a value from database input to the appropriate ruby type. The return value of this method will be returned from ActiveRecord::AttributeMethods::Read#read_attribute. The default implementation just calls Value#cast.

value The raw input, as provided from the database.

def map(value) # :nodoc:

end

#serialize(value) ⇒ Object

Casts a value from the ruby type to a type that the database knows how to understand. The returned value from this method should be a String, Numeric, Date, Time, Symbol, true, false, or nil.

#type_cast_for_schema(value) ⇒ Object

Type casts a value for schema dumping. This method is private, as we are hoping to remove it entirely.
