Provides a set of features that make Sequel more compatible with code that was written for ActiveRecord. Long-term goal is to make a near drop-in replacement to ease the transition for projects that were previously built with ActiveRecord as the default ORM. Individual features may be enabled / disabled when including this plugin.
Please see the examples section and the features table below.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'sequel-active_record'And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install sequel-active_record
As with any Sequel plugin, this may be invoked on Sequel::Model or any of its subclasses. By default, all features are loaded. This may be changed by specifying an array of specific features during invocation.
# Loads all features for all models
Sequel::Model.plugin :active_record
# Load selected features on a specific model
class Artist < Sequel::Model; end;
Artist.plugin :active_record, features: [:first, :last]
# May be called multiple times to load additional features
Artist.plugin :active_record, features: [:finder_methods]| Feature | Description | ActiveRecord | Sequel |
|---|---|---|---|
:first |
Overrides #first to implicitly sort by the primary key |
#first |
#first |
:finder_methods |
Provides support for #find_by and dynamic finders |
#find_by, dynamic finders |
#[] |
:last |
Provides #last!, but leaves Sequel's #last intact given its intuitive sort. Sorts differently than ActiveRecord. |
#last, #last! |
#last |
