Overview

All the concrete database adapters follow the interface laid down in this class. You can use this interface directly by borrowing the database connection from the Base with Base.connection.

Most of the methods in the adapter are useful during migrations. Most notably, SchemaStatements#create_table, SchemaStatements#drop_table, SchemaStatements#add_index, SchemaStatements#remove_index, SchemaStatements#add_column, SchemaStatements#change_column and SchemaStatements#remove_column are very useful.

Instance Method Details

#active? ⇒ Boolean

Is this connection active and ready to perform queries?

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

# File 'lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract_adapter.rb', line 68

def active?
  @active != false
end

#adapter_name ⇒ Object

Returns the human-readable name of the adapter. Use mixed case - one can always use downcase if needed.

# File 'lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract_adapter.rb', line 35

  'Abstract'
end

#disconnect! ⇒ Object

Close this connection

# File 'lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract_adapter.rb', line 78

def disconnect!
  @active = false
end

#prefetch_primary_key?(table_name = nil) ⇒ Boolean

Should primary key values be selected from their corresponding sequence before the insert statement? If true, next_sequence_value is called before each insert to set the record’s primary key. This is false for all adapters but Firebird.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

def prefetch_primary_key?(table_name = nil)
  false
end

#raw_connection ⇒ Object

Provides access to the underlying database connection. Useful for when you need to call a proprietary method such as postgresql’s lo_* methods

def reconnect!
  @active = true
end

#requires_reloading? ⇒ Boolean

Returns true if its safe to reload the connection between requests for development mode. This is not the case for Ruby/MySQL and it’s not necessary for any adapters except SQLite.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

#supports_count_distinct? ⇒ Boolean

Does this adapter support using DISTINCT within COUNT? This is true for all adapters except sqlite.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

# File 'lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract_adapter.rb', line 47

def supports_count_distinct?
  true
end

#supports_migrations? ⇒ Boolean

Does this adapter support migrations? Backend specific, as the abstract adapter always returns false.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

# File 'lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract_adapter.rb', line 41

def supports_migrations?
  false
end

#verify!(timeout) ⇒ Object

Lazily verify this connection, calling active? only if it hasn’t been called for timeout seconds.
