<h3 id="the-object-life-cycle">1 The Object Life Cycle</h3><p>During the normal operation of a Rails application, objects may be created, updated, and destroyed. Active Record provides hooks into this <em>object life cycle</em> so that you can control your application and its data.</p><p>Callbacks allow you to trigger logic before or after an alteration of an object's state.</p><h3 id="callbacks-overview">2 Callbacks Overview</h3><p>Callbacks are methods that get called at certain moments of an object's life cycle. With callbacks it is possible to write code that will run whenever an Active Record object is created, saved, updated, deleted, validated, or loaded from the database.</p><h4 id="callback-registration">2.1 Callback Registration</h4><p>In order to use the available callbacks, you need to register them. You can implement the callbacks as ordinary methods and use a macro-style class method to register them as callbacks:</p><div class="code_container">

<p>The macro-style class methods can also receive a block. Consider using this style if the code inside your block is so short that it fits in a single line:</p><div class="code_container">

<p>These methods should be used with caution, however, because important business rules and application logic may be kept in callbacks. Bypassing them without understanding the potential implications may lead to invalid data.</p><h3 id="halting-execution">6 Halting Execution</h3><p>As you start registering new callbacks for your models, they will be queued for execution. This queue will include all your model's validations, the registered callbacks, and the database operation to be executed.</p><p>The whole callback chain is wrapped in a transaction. If any <em>before</em> callback method returns exactly <code>false</code> or raises an exception, the execution chain gets halted and a ROLLBACK is issued; <em>after</em> callbacks can only accomplish that by raising an exception.</p><div class="warning"><p>Any exception that is not <code>ActiveRecord::Rollback</code> will be re-raised by Rails after the callback chain is halted. Raising an exception other than <code>ActiveRecord::Rollback</code> may break code that does not expect methods like <code>save</code> and <code>update_attributes</code> (which normally try to return <code>true</code> or <code>false</code>) to raise an exception.</p></div><h3 id="relational-callbacks">7 Relational Callbacks</h3><p>Callbacks work through model relationships, and can even be defined by them. Suppose an example where a user has many articles. A user's articles should be destroyed if the user is destroyed. Let's add an <code>after_destroy</code> callback to the <code>User</code> model by way of its relationship to the <code>Article</code> model:</p><div class="code_container">

<h3 id="conditional-callbacks">8 Conditional Callbacks</h3><p>As with validations, we can also make the calling of a callback method conditional on the satisfaction of a given predicate. We can do this using the <code>:if</code> and <code>:unless</code> options, which can take a symbol, a string, a <code>Proc</code> or an <code>Array</code>. You may use the <code>:if</code> option when you want to specify under which conditions the callback <strong>should</strong> be called. If you want to specify the conditions under which the callback <strong>should not</strong> be called, then you may use the <code>:unless</code> option.</p><h4 id="using-:if-and-:unless-with-a-symbol">8.1 Using <code>:if</code> and <code>:unless</code> with a <code>Symbol</code>
|
|
442
|
+
</h4><p>You can associate the <code>:if</code> and <code>:unless</code> options with a symbol corresponding to the name of a predicate method that will get called right before the callback. When using the <code>:if</code> option, the callback won't be executed if the predicate method returns false; when using the <code>:unless</code> option, the callback won't be executed if the predicate method returns true. This is the most common option. Using this form of registration it is also possible to register several different predicates that should be called to check if the callback should be executed.</p><div class="code_container">

<h3 id="callback-classes">9 Callback Classes</h3><p>Sometimes the callback methods that you'll write will be useful enough to be reused by other models. Active Record makes it possible to create classes that encapsulate the callback methods, so it becomes very easy to reuse them.</p><p>Here's an example where we create a class with an <code>after_destroy</code> callback for a <code>PictureFile</code> model:</p><div class="code_container">
|
|
478
|
+
<pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
|
|
479
|
+
class PictureFileCallbacks
|
|
480
|
+
def after_destroy(picture_file)
|
|
481
|
+
if File.exist?(picture_file.filepath)
|
|
482
|
+
File.delete(picture_file.filepath)
|
|
483
|
+
end
|
|
484
|
+
end
|
|
485
|

end
|
|
486

487
|
+
</pre>
|
|
488
|
+
</div>
|
|
489
|
+
<p>When declared inside a class, as above, the callback methods will receive the model object as a parameter. We can now use the callback class in the model:</p><div class="code_container">
|
|
490
|
+
<pre class="brush: ruby; gutter: false; toolbar: false">
|
|
491

492

after_destroy PictureFileCallbacks.new

495
|
+
</pre>
|
|
496
|
+
</div>
|
|
497
|
+
<p>Note that we needed to instantiate a new <code>PictureFileCallbacks</code> object, since we declared our callback as an instance method. This is particularly useful if the callbacks make use of the state of the instantiated object. Often, however, it will make more sense to declare the callbacks as class methods:</p><div class="code_container">
|
|

File.delete(picture_file.filepath)

508

<p>If the callback method is declared this way, it won't be necessary to instantiate a <code>PictureFileCallbacks</code> object.</p><div class="code_container">

<p>You can declare as many callbacks as you want inside your callback classes.</p><h3 id="transaction-callbacks">10 Transaction Callbacks</h3><p>There are two additional callbacks that are triggered by the completion of a database transaction: <code>after_commit</code> and <code>after_rollback</code>. These callbacks are very similar to the <code>after_save</code> callback except that they don't execute until after database changes have either been committed or rolled back. They are most useful when your active record models need to interact with external systems which are not part of the database transaction.</p><p>Consider, for example, the previous example where the <code>PictureFile</code> model needs to delete a file after the corresponding record is destroyed. If anything raises an exception after the <code>after_destroy</code> callback is called and the transaction rolls back, the file will have been deleted and the model will be left in an inconsistent state. For example, suppose that <code>picture_file_2</code> in the code below is not valid and the <code>save!</code> method raises an error.</p><div class="code_container">
