From ffc4710c2bff273b82ddb76675701f986d82ef4f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sean Griffin Date: Fri, 21 Aug 2015 17:45:46 -0600 Subject: JSON is still an adapter specific type. Several changes were made in #21110 which I am strongly opposed to. (this is what I get for going on vacation. :trollface:) No type should be introduced into the generic `ActiveRecord::Type` namespace, and *certainly* should not be registered into the registry unconstrained unless it is supported by *all* adapters (which basically means that it was specified in the ANSI SQL standard). I do not think `# :nodoc:` ing the type is sufficient, as it still makes the code of Rails itself very unclear as to what the role of that class is. While I would argue that this shouldn't even be a super class, and that MySql and PG's JSON types are only superficially duplicated (they might look the same but will change for different reasons in the future). However, I don't feel strongly enough about it as a point of contention (and the biggest cost of harming the blameability has already occured), so I simply moved the superclass into a namespace where its role is absolutely clear. After this change, `attribute :foo, :json` will once again work with MySQL and PG, but not with Sqlite3 or any third party adapters. Unresolved questions -------------------- The types that and adapter publishes (at least those are unique to that adapter, and not adding additional behavior like `MysqlString` should probably be part of the adapter's public API. Should we standardize the namespace for these, and document them? --- activerecord/lib/active_record/type.rb | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'activerecord/lib/active_record/type.rb') diff --git a/activerecord/lib/active_record/type.rb b/activerecord/lib/active_record/type.rb index 8f56a37f3c..53f3b53bec 100644 --- a/activerecord/lib/active_record/type.rb +++ b/activerecord/lib/active_record/type.rb @@ -10,7 +10,6 @@ require 'active_record/type/decimal' require 'active_record/type/decimal_without_scale' require 'active_record/type/float' require 'active_record/type/integer' -require 'active_record/type/json' require 'active_record/type/serialized' require 'active_record/type/string' require 'active_record/type/text' @@ -21,6 +20,8 @@ require 'active_record/type/adapter_specific_registry' require 'active_record/type/type_map' require 'active_record/type/hash_lookup_type_map' +require 'active_record/type/internal/abstract_json' + module ActiveRecord module Type @registry = AdapterSpecificRegistry.new @@ -60,7 +61,6 @@ module ActiveRecord register(:decimal, Type::Decimal, override: false) register(:float, Type::Float, override: false) register(:integer, Type::Integer, override: false) - register(:json, Type::Json, override: false) register(:string, Type::String, override: false) register(:text, Type::Text, override: false) register(:time, Type::Time, override: false) -- cgit v1.2.3
