如何在回调中获取列的旧值？

Question

在after_update上，在我的模型中。如何获取列的旧值？

Answer 1

模型的

changed_attributes()方法会使用原始值（即after_udpate）获取已更改属性的哈希值。更多信息和更多相关方法here。

class MyModel < ActiveRecord::Base
  after_update :log_changed

  def log_changed
    puts "changed attributes:"
    puts changed_attributes.inspect
  end
end

...在控制台中提供以下内容：

$ rails console
Loading development environment (Rails 3.0.7)
test(dev)> m = MyModel.first
=> #<MyModel id: 134611365, name: "oldname", created_at: "2011-09-16 10:27:53", updated_at: "2011-09-20 11:58:11">
test(dev)> m.name = 'newname'
=> "newname"
test(dev)> m.save
  SQL (0.2ms)  BEGIN
  SQL (0.4ms)  SHOW TABLES
  AREL (0.2ms)  UPDATE `mymodels` SET `updated_at` = '2011-09-20 12:07:34', `name` = 'newname' WHERE `mymodels`.`id` = 134611365
changed attributes:
{"name"=>"oldname", "updated_at"=>Tue, 20 Sep 2011 11:58:11 UTC +00:00}
  SQL (83.9ms)  COMMIT
=> true
test(dev)> m.changed_attributes
=> {}
