SwitchConnection

Switching database connection between multiple slave and writable one. Fork from switch_point gem. Original Version: https://github.com/eagletmt/switch_point.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'switch_connection'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install switch_connection

Suppose you have 4 databases: db-blog-master, db-blog-slave, db-comment-master and db-comment-slave. Article model and Category model are stored in db-blog-{master,slave} and Comment model is stored in db-comment-{master,slave}.

In database.yml:

production_blog_master:
  adapter: mysql2
  username: blog_writable
  host: db-blog-master
production_blog_slave:
  adapter: mysql2
  username: blog_slave
  host: db-blog-slave
production_comment_master:
    ...

In initializer:

SwitchConnection.configure do |config|
  config.define_switch_point :blog,
    slaves: [:"#{Rails.env}_blog_slave1",:"#{Rails.env}_blog_slave2"]
    master: :"#{Rails.env}_blog_master"
  config.define_switch_point :comment,
    slaves: [:"#{Rails.env}_comment_slave"]
    master: :"#{Rails.env}_comment_master"
end

In models:

class Article < ActiveRecord::Base
  use_switch_point :blog
end

class Category < ActiveRecord::Base
  use_switch_point :blog
end

class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
  use_switch_point :comment
end

• Write query automatically go master database, read query automatically go to slave database.

article = Article.find(1) # read query go to slave
article.name = "hoge"
article.save # write query go to master

• Use with_master to force query go to master database.

Article.with_master do
  article.save! # Write to master db
  Article.first # Read from master db
end

• Force query to master database.

Article.with_master { Article.all }
Article.with_master { Article.find(1) }
Article.with_master { Article.where(name: "foobar").to_a }

• with_switch_point

Book.with_switch_point(:main) { Book.count  }

Note that Article and Category shares their connections.

Basically, each connection managed by a proxy isn't shared between proxies. But there's one exception: ActiveRecord::Base.
