I would like to update all records in a rails (3.1) model when i update an attribute on a single record.
Like self.update_attribute(:global_order => 1) then before or after save a would like to update all other records to update thier global_order (1, 2, 3, 4).
Right now with on after_save callback I get caught in a recursive loop, is skip callbacks the way to go? I would like the app to throw exceptions if anything seems strange in global_order.
Or are there any 3.1 gems that would solve my issue.
after_save :set_global_order
def set_global_order
@products = self.class.all(:order => :global_order)
@products.sort! {|a,b| a.global_order <=> b.global_order}
@products.reverse!
@products.each_with_index do |p, index|
p.update_attributes!({:global_order => index + 1})
end
end
Not sure if there's a gem, but you could definitely refactor this with the following considerations:
...
def set_global_order
products = self.class.order('global_order DESC')
products.each_with_index do |p, index|
p.update_column(:global_order, index + 1)
end
end
