#revive ⇒ Object Also known as: undelete, undestroy

Revive a destroyed item. For a model like: class Post < ActiveRecord::Base delete_softly end Then the following can be done: p = Post.find(1) p.destroy p = Post.find(1) # raise error p = Post.with_deleted.find(1) # Original object but with deleted_at attribute set p.revive #=> deleted_at => nil p = Post.find(1) # business as usual If papertrail is used for this model it will not store a copy
