Kakurenbo-Puti

kakurenbo-puti provides an ActiveRecord-friendly soft-delete gem. This gem does not override methods of ActiveRecord.

I think that kakurenbo-puti is cho-iketeru! (very cool!)

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'kakurenbo-puti'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install kakurenbo-puti

Usage

At first, add soft_destroyed_at column to your model.

$ rails g migration AddSoftDestroyedAtToYourModel soft_destroyed_at:datetime:index
$ rake db:migrate

Next, call soft_deletable in model.

class Member < ActiveRecord::Base
  soft_deletable
end

Scopes

# Get models without soft-deleted
Model.without_soft_destroyed

# Get models only soft-deleted
Model.only_soft_destroyed

Soft-delete record

model.soft_destroy

# or
model.soft_destroy!

# check soft_destroyed
model.soft_destroyed? # => true

Restore record

model.restore

# or
model.restore!

Advanced

Definition of the dependency

Use dependent_associations option of soft-deletable. This option is useable only in belongs_to.

class Parent < ActiveRecord::Base
  soft_deletable
  has_many :children
end

class Child < ActiveRecord::Base
  soft_deletable dependent_associations: [:parent]
  belongs_to :parent
end

# create instance
parent = Parent.create!
child  = Child.create!

# add child
parent.children << child

child.soft_destroyed? # false

# soft-destroy parent
parent.soft_destroy

child.soft_destroyed? # true

Change column of datetime of soft-delete.

class Member < ActiveRecord::Base
  soft_deletable :column => :deleted_at
end
