require 'active_support/core_ext/object/deep_dup' module ActiveRecord # Declare an enum attribute where the values map to integers in the database, # but can be queried by name. Example: # # class Conversation < ActiveRecord::Base # enum status: [ :active, :archived ] # end # # # conversation.update! status: 0 # conversation.active! # conversation.active? # => true # conversation.status # => "active" # # # conversation.update! status: 1 # conversation.archived! # conversation.archived? # => true # conversation.status # => "archived" # # # conversation.update! status: 1 # conversation.status = "archived" # # # conversation.update! status: nil # conversation.status = nil # conversation.status.nil? # => true # conversation.status # => nil # # Scopes based on the allowed values of the enum field will be provided # as well. With the above example: # # Conversation.active # Conversation.archived # # You can set the default value from the database declaration, like: # # create_table :conversations do |t| # t.column :status, :integer, default: 0 # end # # Good practice is to let the first declared status be the default. # # Finally, it's also possible to explicitly map the relation between attribute and # database integer with a +Hash+: # # class Conversation < ActiveRecord::Base # enum status: { active: 0, archived: 1 } # end # # Note that when an +Array+ is used, the implicit mapping from the values to database # integers is derived from the order the values appear in the array. In the example, # :active is mapped to +0+ as it's the first element, and :archived # is mapped to +1+. In general, the +i+-th element is mapped to i-1 in the # database. # # Therefore, once a value is added to the enum array, its position in the array must # be maintained, and new values should only be added to the end of the array. To # remove unused values, the explicit +Hash+ syntax should be used. # # In rare circumstances you might need to access the mapping directly. # The mappings are exposed through a class method with the pluralized attribute # name: # # Conversation.statuses # => { "active" => 0, "archived" => 1 } # # Use that class method when you need to know the ordinal value of an enum: # # Conversation.where("status <> ?", Conversation.statuses[:archived]) # # Where conditions on an enum attribute must use the ordinal value of an enum. module Enum def self.extended(base) base.class_attribute(:defined_enums) base.defined_enums = {} end def inherited(base) base.defined_enums = defined_enums.deep_dup super end def enum(definitions) klass = self definitions.each do |name, values| # statuses = { } enum_values = ActiveSupport::HashWithIndifferentAccess.new name = name.to_sym # def self.statuses statuses end detect_enum_conflict!(name, name.to_s.pluralize, true) klass.singleton_class.send(:define_method, name.to_s.pluralize) { enum_values } _enum_methods_module.module_eval do # def status=(value) self[:status] = statuses[value] end klass.send(:detect_enum_conflict!, name, "#{name}=") define_method("#{name}=") { |value| if enum_values.has_key?(value) || value.blank? self[name] = enum_values[value] elsif enum_values.has_value?(value) # Assigning a value directly is not a end-user feature, hence it's not documented. # This is used internally to make building objects from the generated scopes work # as expected, i.e. +Conversation.archived.build.archived?+ should be true. self[name] = value else raise ArgumentError, "'#{value}' is not a valid #{name}" end } # def status() statuses.key self[:status] end klass.send(:detect_enum_conflict!, name, name) define_method(name) { enum_values.key self[name] } # def status_before_type_cast() statuses.key self[:status] end klass.send(:detect_enum_conflict!, name, "#{name}_before_type_cast") define_method("#{name}_before_type_cast") { enum_values.key self[name] } pairs = values.respond_to?(:each_pair) ? values.each_pair : values.each_with_index pairs.each do |value, i| enum_values[value] = i # def active?() status == 0 end klass.send(:detect_enum_conflict!, name, "#{value}?") define_method("#{value}?") { self[name] == i } # def active!() update! status: :active end klass.send(:detect_enum_conflict!, name, "#{value}!") define_method("#{value}!") { update! name => value } # scope :active, -> { where status: 0 } klass.send(:detect_enum_conflict!, name, value, true) klass.scope value, -> { klass.where name => i } end end defined_enums[name.to_s] = enum_values end end private def _enum_methods_module @_enum_methods_module ||= begin mod = Module.new do private def save_changed_attribute(attr_name, old) if (mapping = self.class.defined_enums[attr_name.to_s]) value = read_attribute(attr_name) if attribute_changed?(attr_name) if mapping[old] == value changed_attributes.delete(attr_name) end else if old != value changed_attributes[attr_name] = mapping.key old end end else super end end end include mod mod end end ENUM_CONFLICT_MESSAGE = \ "You tried to define an enum named \"%{enum}\" on the model \"%{klass}\", but " \ "this will generate a %{type} method \"%{method}\", which is already defined " \ "by %{source}." def detect_enum_conflict!(enum_name, method_name, klass_method = false) if klass_method && dangerous_class_method?(method_name) raise ArgumentError, ENUM_CONFLICT_MESSAGE % { enum: enum_name, klass: self.name, type: 'class', method: method_name, source: 'Active Record' } elsif !klass_method && dangerous_attribute_method?(method_name) raise ArgumentError, ENUM_CONFLICT_MESSAGE % { enum: enum_name, klass: self.name, type: 'instance', method: method_name, source: 'Active Record' } elsif !klass_method && method_defined_within?(method_name, _enum_methods_module, Module) raise ArgumentError, ENUM_CONFLICT_MESSAGE % { enum: enum_name, klass: self.name, type: 'instance', method: method_name, source: 'another enum' } end end end end
