module CouchRest::Mixins::Attributes

attributes=(hash) click to toggle source

Alias for: update_attributes_without_saving

prepare_all_attributes(doc = {}, options = {}) click to toggle source

Support for handling attributes

This would be better in the properties file, but due to scoping issues this is not yet possible.

# File lib/couchrest/mixins/attributes.rb, line 11
def prepare_all_attributes(doc = {}, options = {})
  apply_all_property_defaults
  if options[:directly_set_attributes]
    directly_set_read_only_attributes(doc)          
  else
    remove_protected_attributes(doc)
  end
  directly_set_attributes(doc) unless doc.nil?
end

update_attributes(hash) click to toggle source

Takes a hash as argument, and applies the values by using writer methods for each key. Raises a NoMethodError if the corresponding methods are missing. In case of error, no attributes are changed.

# File lib/couchrest/mixins/attributes.rb, line 35
def update_attributes(hash)
  update_attributes_without_saving hash
  save
end

update_attributes_without_saving(hash) click to toggle source

Takes a hash as argument, and applies the values by using writer methods for each key. It doesn’t save the document at the end. Raises a NoMethodError if the corresponding methods are missing. In case of error, no attributes are changed.

# File lib/couchrest/mixins/attributes.rb, line 24
def update_attributes_without_saving(hash)
  # Remove any protected and update all the rest. Any attributes
  # which do not have a property will simply be ignored.
  attrs = remove_protected_attributes(hash)
  directly_set_attributes(attrs)
end
