Attributes

sti_dataset[R]

The base dataset for STI, to which filters are added to get only the models for the specific STI subclass.

sti_key[R]

The column name holding the STI key for this model

sti_key_array[R]

Array holding keys for all subclasses of this class, used for the dataset filter in subclasses. Nil in the main class.

sti_key_chooser[R]

A proc which returns the value to use for new instances. This defaults to a lookup in the key map.

sti_key_map[R]

A hash/proc with class keys and column value values, mapping the the class to a particular value given to the sti_key column. Used to set the column value when creating objects, and for the filter when retrieving objects in subclasses.

sti_model_map[R]

A hash/proc with column value keys and class values, mapping the value of the sti_key column to the appropriate class to use.

Public Instance Methods

inherited(subclass) click to toggle source

Copy the necessary attributes to the subclasses, and filter the subclass's dataset based on the sti_kep_map entry for the class.

# File lib/sequel/plugins/single_table_inheritance.rb, line 144
def inherited(subclass)
  super
  sk = sti_key
  sd = sti_dataset
  skm = sti_key_map
  smm = sti_model_map
  skc = sti_key_chooser
  key = Array(skm[subclass]).dup
  sti_subclass_added(key)
  rp = dataset.row_proc
  subclass.set_dataset(sd.filter(SQL::QualifiedIdentifier.new(table_name, sk)=>key), :inherited=>true)
  subclass.instance_eval do
    dataset.row_proc = rp
    @sti_key = sk
    @sti_key_array = key
    @sti_dataset = sd
    @sti_key_map = skm
    @sti_model_map = smm
    @sti_key_chooser = skc
    self.simple_table = nil
  end
end
sti_load(r) click to toggle source

Return an instance of the class specified by sti_key, used by the row_proc.

# File lib/sequel/plugins/single_table_inheritance.rb, line 169
def sti_load(r)
  sti_class(sti_model_map[r[sti_key]]).call(r)
end
sti_subclass_added(key) click to toggle source

Make sure that all subclasses of the parent class correctly include keys for all of their descendant classes.

# File lib/sequel/plugins/single_table_inheritance.rb, line 175
def sti_subclass_added(key)
  if sti_key_array
    Sequel.synchronize{sti_key_array.push(*Array(key))}
    superclass.sti_subclass_added(key)
  end
end
