Instance Method Details

#revise ⇒ Object

Create a new version of the Document. This will load the previous document from the database and set it as the next version before saving the current document. It then increments the version number. If a #max_versions limit is set in the model and it’s exceeded, the oldest version gets discarded.

Examples:

Revise the document.

person.revise

Since:

  • 1.0.0

def revise
  previous = previous_revision
  if previous && versioned_attributes_changed?
    versions.build(previous.versioned_attributes).attributes.delete("_id")
    if version_max.present? && versions.length > version_max
      versions.delete(versions.first)
    end
    self.version = (version || 1 ) + 1
  end
end

#revise! ⇒ Object

Forces the creation of a new version of the Document, regardless of whether a change was actually made.

Examples:

Revise the document.

person.revise!

Since:

  • 2.2.1

def revise!
  new_version = versions.build((previous_revision || self).versioned_attributes)
  versions.shift if version_max.present? && versions.length > version_max
  self.version = (version || 1 ) + 1
  save
end

#versioned_attributes ⇒ Hash

Filters the results of attributes by removing any fields that should not be versioned.

Returns:

  • (Hash) —

    A hash of versioned attributes.

Since:

  • 2.1.0

def versioned_attributes
  only_versioned_attributes(attributes)
end

#versioned_attributes_changed? ⇒ Boolean

Check if any versioned fields have been modified. This is similar to changed?, except this method also ignores fields set to be ignored by versioning.

Returns:

  • (Boolean) —

    Whether fields that will be versioned have changed.

Since:

  • 2.1.0

Examples:

Execute a save without versioning.

person.versionless(&:save)

Returns:

  • (Object) —

    The document or result of the block execution.

Since:

  • 2.0.0
