#loopback? ⇒ Boolean

def loopback?
  from_name == to_name
end

#perform(*args) ⇒ Object

Runs the actual transition and any before/after callbacks associated with the transition. The action associated with the transition/machine can be skipped by passing in false.

Examples

class Vehicle
  state_machine :action => :save do
    ...
  end
end

vehicle = Vehicle.new
transition = EnumStateMachine::Transition.new(vehicle, machine, :ignite, :parked, :idling)
transition.perform                  # => Runs the +save+ action after setting the state attribute
transition.perform(false)           # => Only sets the state attribute
transition.perform(Time.now)        # => Passes in additional arguments and runs the +save+ action
transition.perform(Time.now, false) # => Passes in additional arguments and only sets the state attribute

  self.args = args
  
  # Run the transition
  !!TransitionCollection.new([self], :actions => run_action).perform
end

#persist ⇒ Object

Transitions the current value of the state to that specified by the transition. Once the state is persisted, it cannot be persisted again until this transition is reset.

Example

class Vehicle
  state_machine do
    event :ignite do
      transition :parked => :idling
    end
  end
end

vehicle = Vehicle.new
transition = EnumStateMachine::Transition.new(vehicle, Vehicle.state_machine, :ignite, :parked, :idling)
transition.persist

vehicle.state   # => 'idling'

315
316
 
# File 'lib/enum_state_machine/transition.rb', line 313

def reset
  @before_run = @persisted = @after_run = false
  @paused_block = nil
end

#rollback ⇒ Object

Rolls back changes made to the object’s state via this transition. This will revert the state back to the from value.

Example

class Vehicle
  state_machine :initial => :parked do
    event :ignite do
      transition :parked => :idling
    end
  end
end

vehicle = Vehicle.new     # => #<Vehicle:0xb7b7f568 @state="parked">
transition = EnumStateMachine::Transition.new(vehicle, Vehicle.state_machine, :ignite, :parked, :idling)

# Persist the new state
vehicle.state             # => "parked"
transition.persist
vehicle.state             # => "idling"

# Roll back to the original state
transition.rollback
vehicle.state             # => "parked"

def rollback
  reset
  machine.write(object, :state, from)
end

#run_callbacks(options = {}, &block) ⇒ Object

Runs the before / after callbacks for this transition. If a block is provided, then it will be executed between the before and after callbacks.

Configuration options:

  • before - Whether to run before callbacks.

  • after - Whether to run after callbacks. If false, then any around callbacks will be paused until called again with after enabled. Default is true.

This will return true if all before callbacks gets executed. After callbacks will not have an effect on the result.

  @success = false
  
  halted = pausable { before(options[:after], &block) } if options[:before]
  
  # After callbacks are only run if:
  # * An around callback didn't halt after yielding
  # * They're enabled or the run didn't succeed
  after if !(@before_run && halted) && (options[:after] || !@success)
  
  @before_run

def to_name

end

#transient? ⇒ Boolean

Is this transition existing for a short period only? If this is set, it indicates that the transition (or the event backing it) should not be written to the object if it fails.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)
