+ # Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
2
+
3
+ ## Our Pledge
4
+
5
+ In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
6
+ contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and
7
+ our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
8
+ size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience,
9
+ nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and
10
+ orientation.
11
+
12
+ ## Our Standards
13
+
14
+ Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
15
+ include:
16
+
17
+ * Using welcoming and inclusive language
18
+ * Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
19
+ * Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
20
+ * Focusing on what is best for the community
21
+ * Showing empathy towards other community members
22
+
23
+ Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:
24
+
25
+ * The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or
26
+ advances
27
+ * Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
28
+ * Public or private harassment
29
+ * Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
30
+ address, without explicit permission
31
+ * Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
32
+ professional setting
33
+
34
+ ## Our Responsibilities
35
+
36
+ Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
37
+ behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
38
+ response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.
39
+
40
+ Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
41
+ reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
42
+ that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
43
+ permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
44
+ threatening, offensive, or harmful.
45
+
46
+ ## Scope
47
+
48
+ This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
49
+ when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
50
+ representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail
51
+ address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
52
+ representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be
53
+ further defined and clarified by project maintainers.
54
+
55
+ ## Enforcement
56
+
57
+ Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
58
+ reported by contacting the project team at TODO: Write your email address. All
59
+ complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that
60
+ is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is
61
+ obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident.
62
+ Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.
63
+
64
+ Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
65
+ faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other
66
+ members of the project's leadership.
67
+
68
+ ## Attribution

+ # DraftApprove
2
+
3
+ DraftApprove is a Ruby gem which lets you save draft changes of your ActiveRecord models to your database. It allows grouping of related changes into a 'Draft Transaction' which must be approved or rejected as a whole, rather than allowing individual draft changes to be applied independently.
4
+
5
+ There are a number of other similar Ruby gems available for drafting changes to ActiveRecord models. Depending upon your projects needs, another gem may be more suitable. See the [Alternative Drafting Gems](#alternative-drafting-gems) section for full details.
6
+
7
+ The specific features / functionality offered by DraftApprove are:
8
+
9
+ * No changes are needed to your existing database tables
10
+ * No updates are required to your existing ActiveRecord queries or raw SQL queries
11
+ * It is possible to save drafts of new records, save draft changes to existing records, and save draft deletions of records
12
+ * Multiple related draft changes (new records, updates, deletions) may be grouped together in a 'Draft Transaction' which must then be approved or rejected as a whole
13
+ * This includes being able to save a draft of a model which references an _unsaved_ model - as long as that unsaved model already has a draft
14
+ * Each model may only have one pending draft at a time
15
+
16
+ ## Installation
17
+
18
+ Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
19
+
20
+ ```ruby
21
+ gem 'draft_approve'
22
+ ```
23
+
24
+ And then execute:
25
+
26
+ $ bundle
27
+
28
+ Or install it yourself as:
29
+
30
+ $ gem install draft_approve
31
+
32
+ Once installed, you must generate the migration to create the required draft tables in your database, and run the migration:
33
+
34
+ ```
35
+ $ rails generate draft_approve:migration
36
+ $ rails db:migrate
37
+ ```
38
+
39
+ ## Usage
40
+
41
+ ### Make your Models draftable
42
+
43
+ Add `acts_as_draftable` to all models you'd like to be draftable. For example:
44
+
45
+ ```ruby
46
+ class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
47
+ has_many :contact_addresses
48
+ acts_as_draftable
49
+ end
50
+
51
+ class ContactAddress < ActiveRecord::Base
52
+ belongs_to :person
53
+ acts_as_draftable
54
+ end
55
+ ```
56
+
57
+ ### Create a draft for a single object
58
+
59
+ Call `draft_save!` to save a draft of a new model, or save draft changes to an existing model.
60
+
61
+ Call `draft_destroy!` to draft the deletion of the model.
62
+
63
+ There are also convenience methods `draft_create!` and `draft_update!`.
64
+
65
+ For example:
66
+
67
+ ```ruby
68
+ ### CREATE EXAMPLES
69
+
70
+ # Save draft of a new model
71
+ person = Person.new(name: 'new person')
72
+ draft = person.draft_save!
73
+
74
+ # Short-hand to save draft of a new model
75
+ draft = Person.draft_create!(name: 'new person')
76
+
77
+ ### UPDATE EXAMPLES
78
+
79
+ # Save draft changes to an existing person
80
+ person = Person.find(1)
81
+ person.name = 'update existing person'
82
+ draft = person.draft_save!
83
+
84
+ # Short-hand to save draft changes to an existing person
85
+ draft = person.draft_update!(name: 'update existing person')
86
+
87
+ ### DELETE EXAMPLES
88
+
89
+ # Draft delete an existing person
90
+ person = Person.find(2)
91
+ draft = person.draft_destroy!
92
+ ```
93
+
94
+ ### Create multiple related drafts
95
+
96
+ If you want to ensure multiple related changes are all approved, or all rejected, as a single block, use a Draft Transaction. You do this by calling the `draft_transaction` method on any draftable model class, and passing it a block where all your drafts are saved. You use the same `draft_save!` and `draft_destroy!` methods within the Draft Transaction.
97
+
98
+ For example:
99
+
100
+ ```ruby
101
+ draft_transaction = Person.draft_transaction do
102
+ # Want reference to person object, so don't use shorthand draft_create! method
103
+ person = Person.new(name: 'new person name')
104
+ person.draft_save!
105
+
106
+ existing_contact_address = ContactAddress.find(1)
107
+ existing_contact_address.draft_update!(person: person)
108
+
109
+ ContactAddress.find(2).draft_destroy!
110
+ end
111
+ ```
112
+
113
+ This would create 3 drafts (one to create a new person, one to update an existing contact address, and one to delete a different contact address). These must all be applied together, or all be rejected.
114
+
115
+ ### Approve drafts
116
+
117
+ Regardless of how a draft was created, a Draft Transaction is always created, and the Draft Transaction is what needs to be approved. This will apply the changes in all drafts within the Draft Transaction (which may only be one draft).
118
+
119
+ For example:
120
+
121
+ ```ruby
122
+ # If you have reference to a Draft object
123
+ draft.draft_transaction.approve_changes!(reviewed_by: 'my_username', review_reason: 'Looks Good!')
124
+
125
+ # If you have reference to a DraftTransaction object
126
+ draft_transaction.approve_changes!(reviewed_by: 'my_username', review_reason: 'Looks Good!')
127
+ ```
128
+
129
+ ### Reject drafts
130
+
131
+ This will reject all changes in all drafts within the Draft Transaction (which may only be one draft).
132
+
133
+ For example:
134
+
135
+ ```ruby
136
+ # If you have reference to a Draft object
137
+ draft.draft_transaction.reject_changes!(reviewed_by: 'my_username', review_reason: 'Nope!')
138
+
139
+ # If you have reference to a DraftTransaction object
140
+ draft_transaction.reject_changes!(reviewed_by: 'my_username', review_reason: 'Nope!')
141
+ ```
142
+
143
+ ### Find drafts pending approval
144
+
145
+ As discussed, all drafts are created inside a Draft Transaction, and it is these which must be approved or rejected.
146
+
147
+ You can find all Draft Transactions with a particular status using the following methods:
148
+
149
+ ```ruby
150
+ pending_draft_transactions = DraftTransaction.pending_approval
151
+
152
+ approved_draft_transactions = DraftTransaction.approved
153
+
154
+ rejected_draft_transactions = DraftTransaction.rejected
155
+ ```
156
+
157
+ ### Errors
158
+
159
+ If an error occurs while approving a transaction, the error will cause the transaction to fail, so none of the draft changes will be applied. The Draft Transaction will have its `status` set to `approval_error`, and its `error` column will contain more information (the error and the backtrace).
160
+
161
+ All Draft Transactions with an error can be found using the following:
162
+
163
+ ```ruby
164
+ errored_draft_transactions = DraftTransaction.approval_error
165
+ ```
166
+
167
+ ### Advanced usage
168
+
169
+ #### Who created a draft?
170
+
171
+ When creating a Draft Transaction, you may pass in a `created_by` string. This could be a username or the name of an automated process, and will be stored in the `DraftTransaction.created_by` column in the database. This option is only available when saving drafts within an explicit Draft Transaction.
172
+
173
+ For example:
174
+
175
+ ```ruby
176
+ draft_transaction = Person.draft_transaction(created_by: 'UserA') do
177
+ Person.new(name: 'new person name').draft_save!
178
+ end
179
+ ```
180
+
181
+ #### Extra metadata for drafts
182
+
183
+ When creating a Draft Transaction, you may pass in an `extra_data` hash. This can contain anything, and will be stored in the `DraftTransaction.extra_data` column in the database. This option is only available when saving drafts within an explicit Draft Transaction.
184
+
185
+ Possible use-cases for the extra data hash are storing which users or roles are allowed to approve these drafts, storing additional data about why or how the drafts were created, etc. The DraftApprove gem does not implement these features for you (eg. limiting who can approve drafts), but simply gives you a way to store generic metadata about a Draft Transaction should you wish to build such features within your application logic.
186
+
187
+ For example:
188
+
189
+ ```ruby
190
+ extra_data = {
191
+ 'can_be_approved_by' => ['SuperAdminRole', 'UserB'],
192
+ 'data_source_url' => 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RubyGems',
193
+ 'data_scraped_at' => '2019-02-08 12:00:00'
194
+ }
195
+
196
+ draft_transaction = Person.draft_transaction(extra_data: extra_data) do
197
+ Person.new(name: 'new person name').draft_save!
198
+ end
199
+ ```
200
+
201
+ #### Skipping validations when saving drafts
202
+
203
+ By default, models will have their ActiveRecords validations checked before a draft is saved. This prevents invalid drafts from being persisted, which would just fail validation when the Draft Transaction is approved anyway.
204
+
205
+ _Side note - when saving a draft, only ActiveRecord validations are checked. Since the draft data is not written to your application table, database-only validations cannot be checked!_
206
+
207
+ If you would like to skip checking ActiveRecord validations when saving a draft, you may pass the `validate: false` option to `draft_save`, for example:
208
+
209
+ ```
210
+ person = Person.new
211
+ person.draft_save!(validate: false)
212
+ ```
213
+
214
+ Validations will still run when the draft is approved, so this option is not especially useful unless combined with a custom method for creating or updating the record (see below).
215
+
216
+ #### Custom methods for creating, updating and deleting data
217
+
218
+ When a Draft Transaction is approved, all drafts within the transaction are applied, meaning the changes within the draft are made live on the database. This is acheived by calling suitable ActiveRecord methods. The default methods used by the DraftApprove gem are:
219
+
220
+ * `create!` for new models saved with `draft_save!`
221
+ * `update!` for existing models which have been modified and saved with `draft_save!`
222
+ * `destroy!` for models which have had `draft_destroy!` called on them
223
+
224
+ Note that `create!` is a _class_ level ActiveRecord method, while `update!` and `destroy!` are _instance_ level ActiveRecord methods.
225
+
226
+ When saving drafts, you may override the method used to save the changes by passing an options hash to the `draft_save!` or `draft_destroy!` methods. You are not able to do this with the convenience `draft_create!` or `draft_update!` methods.
227
+
228
+ For example:
229
+
230
+ ```ruby
231
+ draft_transaction = Person.draft_transaction do
232
+ # When approved, find or create Person A
233
+ person = Person.new(name: 'Person A')
234
+ person.draft_save!(create_method: :find_or_create_by!)
235

246
+ **CAUTION**
247
+ * No validation is done to check you are using sensible alternative methods, so use at your own risk!
248
+ * **It is strongly recommended to use methods which will raise an error if they fail**, otherwise one draft in a Draft Transaction may 'silently' fail, causing subsequent drafts to be applied, and the Draft Transaction as a whole may appear to have been successfully approved & applied
249
+ * Methods used as the `create_method` **must** be _class_ methods for the model you are drafting, which accept a hash of attribute names to attribute values (eg. `Person.create!`, `Person.find_or_create_by!`, etc)
250
+ * Methods used as the `update_method` **must** be _instance_ methods for the model you are drafting, which accept a hash of attribute names to attribute values (eg. `person.update!`, `person.update_attributes!`, etc)
251
+ * Methods used as the `delete_method` **must** be _instance_ methods for the model you are drafting, which requires no arguments (eg. `person.destroy!`, `person.delete`, etc)

257
+ ## Frequently Asked Questions
258
+
259
+ ### Why am I getting `ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid` errors when I save a draft?
260
+
261
+ If you wish to purposefully save drafts which do not pass validations, see the [Skipping validations when saving drafts](#skipping-validations-when-saving-drafts) section.
262
+
263
+ If you are unexpectedly getting `ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid` errors, a _possible_ reason is explicit validations on foreign key columns. For example, the following would fail:
264
+
265
+ ```ruby
266
+ class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
267
+ has_many :contact_addresses
268
+ acts_as_draftable
269
+ end
270
+
271
+ class ContactAddress < ActiveRecord::Base
272
+ belongs_to :person
273
+ validates :person_id, presence: true # This validation is unnecessary and can cause errors
274
+ acts_as_draftable
275
+ end
276
+
277
+ draft_transaction = Person.draft_transaction do
278
+ # Create a new person, and save it as a draft (note, this means p.id is nil!)
279
+ p = Person.new(name: 'person name')
280
+ p.save_draft!
281
+
282
+ c = ContactAddress.new(person: p)
283
+ c.save_draft! # raises ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid because contact_address.person_id is nil
284
+ end
285
+ ```
286
+
287
+ This can be fixed by removing the explicit `presence: true` validation of foreign key columns. Such validations should not be necessary anyway, because by default `belongs_to` relationships validate the associated object is not `nil`.
288
+
289
+ _Side note: the `belongs_to` validations do not cause such errors when saving a draft because they check the associated object (eg. `person`) is not `nil` - rather than validating that the component attributes / columns of the association (eg. `person_id`) are not `nil`. In the example above, the `belongs_to` validation would check `contact_address.person` is not `nil`, which it is not - the `Person` object referred to has not been persisted, but it is not `nil`, so the validation passes._

+ ## Alternative Drafting Gems
292
+
293
+ * [Drafting](https://github.com/ledermann/drafting)
294
+ * [DraftPunk](https://github.com/stevehodges/draftpunk)
295
+ * [Draftsman](https://github.com/jmfederico/draftsman)
296
+
297
+ **DraftPunk** and **Draftsman** both require changes to your existing database tables. In itself, this is not a problem, however this also _potentially_ requires changes to your ActiveRecord Queries and any raw SQL you may be executing in order to ensure draft models or draft changes are not accidentally returned by queries or shown to end users.
298
+
299
+ This problem can be avoided using default scopes on your models. This may be a suitable solution for new projects, or projects which don't utilise much or any raw SQL queries.
300
+
301
+ See the [DraftPunk documentation](https://github.com/stevehodges/draftpunk#what-about-the-rest-of-the-application-people-are-seeing-draft-businesses) and [Draftsman documentation](https://github.com/jmfederico/draftsman#drafted-item-scopes) on using scopes.
302
+
303
+ **Drafting** does not require any modifications to existing tables, and therefore has no risk of existing queries accidentally returning draft data. However, [it only allows saving drafts on records which are not persisted yet](https://github.com/ledermann/drafting#hints). This may be suitable for projects where it is not necessary to create and approve draft updates to objects.
304
+
305
+ All the above gem also have other specific features / advantages unique to them, so before selecting the most suitable gem for your needs, it is recommended you read their documentation and trial them to find which is most suited to your project requirements.
