after_commit

An ActiveRecord/Rails library to add before_commit, after_commit, before_rollback and after_rollback callbacks. These callbacks are focused on the transactions, instead of specific model actions. This is beneficial in situations where you are doing asynchronous processing and need committed objects.

Installation

gem install after_commit --source http://gemcutter.org

Usage

The following callbacks are provided:

  • before_commit
  • before_commit_on_create
  • before_commit_on_update
  • before_commit_on_destroy
  • after_commit
  • after_commit_on_create
  • after_commit_on_update
  • after_commit_on_destroy
  • before_rollback
  • after_rollback

You can use these just like you would any other callback:

class Article < ActiveRecord::Base
  after_commit :method_to_call_after_commit
  
  # ...
  
  private
  
  def method_to_call_after_commit
    # Do something knowing that the transaction is committed.
  end
end
