Class Method Details

.included(model) ⇒ Object

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Makes sure a class gets all the methods when it includes Resource

Note that including this module into an anonymous class will leave the model descendant tracking mechanism with no possibility to reliably track the anonymous model across code reloads. This means that DescendantSet will currently leak memory in scenarios where anonymous models are reloaded multiple times (as is the case in dm-rails development mode for example).

#<=>(other) ⇒ Integer

Compares two Resources to allow them to be sorted

Parameters:

  • other (Resource)

    The other Resource to compare with

Returns:

  • (Integer)

    Return 0 if Resources should be sorted as the same, -1 if the other Resource should be after self, and 1 if the other Resource should be before self

  model.default_order(repository_name).each do |direction|
    cmp = direction.get(self) <=> direction.get(other)
    return cmp if cmp.nonzero?
  end
  0
end

#==(other) ⇒ Boolean

Compares another Resource for equivalency

Resource is equivalent to other if they are the same object (identical object_id) or all of their attribute are equivalent

Parameters:

  • other (Resource)

#attribute_dirty?(name) ⇒ Boolean

def attribute_dirty?(name)
  dirty_attributes.key?(properties[name])
end

#attribute_get(name) ⇒ Object Also known as: []

Returns the value of the attribute.

Do not read from instance variables directly, but use this method. This method handles lazy loading the attribute and returning of defaults if nessesary.

Examples:

class Foo
  include DataMapper::Resource

  property :first_name, String
  property :last_name,  String

  def full_name
    "#{attribute_get(:first_name)} #{attribute_get(:last_name)}"
  end

  # using the shorter syntax
  def name_for_address_book
    "#{last_name}, #{first_name}"
  end
end

Parameters:

  • name (Symbol)

    name of attribute to retrieve

Returns:

  • (Object)

    the value stored at that given attribute (nil if none, and default if necessary)

end

#attribute_loaded?(name) ⇒ Boolean

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Checks if an attribute has been loaded from the repository

Examples:

class Foo
  include DataMapper::Resource

  property :name,        String
  property :description, Text,   :lazy => false
end

Foo.new.attribute_loaded?(:description)   #=> false

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

    true if ivar name has been loaded

  • (Boolean)

    true if ivar name has been loaded


573

# File 'lib/dm-core/resource.rb', line 573

def attribute_loaded?(name)
  properties[name].loaded?(self)
end

#attribute_set(name, value) ⇒ undefined Also known as: []=

Sets the value of the attribute and marks the attribute as dirty if it has been changed so that it may be saved. Do not set from instance variables directly, but use this method. This method handles the lazy loading the property and returning of defaults if nessesary.

Examples:

class Foo
  include DataMapper::Resource

  property :first_name, String
  property :last_name,  String

  def full_name(name)
    name = name.split(' ')
    attribute_set(:first_name, name[0])
    attribute_set(:last_name, name[1])
  end

  # using the shorter syntax
  def name_from_address_book(name)
    name = name.split(', ')
    self.first_name = name[1]
    self.last_name = name[0]
  end
end

#eql?(other) ⇒ Boolean

Compares another Resource for equality

Resource is equal to other if they are the same object (identical object_id) or if they are both of the *same model* and all of their attributes are equivalent

Parameters:

  • other (Resource)

    the other Resource to compare with

Returns:

    true if they are equal, false if not

#hashObject

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Returns hash value of the object. Two objects with the same hash value assumed equal (using eql? method)

DataMapper resources are equal when their models have the same hash and they have the same set of properties

When used as key in a Hash or Hash subclass, objects are compared by eql? and thus hash value has direct effect on lookup

Retrieve the key(s) for this resource.

This always returns the persisted key value, even if the key is changed and not yet persisted. This is done so all relations still work.

Returns:

#reloadResource

Reloads association and all child association

This is accomplished by resetting the Resource key to it's original value, and then removing all the ivars for properties and relationships. On the next access of those ivars, the resource will eager load what it needs. While this is more of a lazy reload, it should result in more consistent behavior since no cached results will remain from the initial load.

Returns:

  • (Resource)

    the receiver, the current Resource instance
