Each model uses an association to describe its role in # the relation. The +belongs_to+ association is always used in the model that has # the foreign key. # # === One-to-one # # Use +has_one+ in the base, and +belongs_to+ in the associated model. # # class Employee < ActiveRecord::Base # has_one :office # end # class Office < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :employee # foreign key - employee_id # end # # === One-to-many # # Use +has_many+ in the base, and +belongs_to+ in the associated model. # # class Manager < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :employees # end # class Employee < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :manager # foreign key - manager_id # end # # === Many-to-many # # There are two ways to build a many-to-many relationship. # # The first way uses a +has_many+ association with the :through option and a join model, so # there are two stages of associations. # # class Assignment < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :programmer # foreign key - programmer_id # belongs_to :project # foreign key - project_id # end # class Programmer < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :assignments # has_many :projects, :through => :assignments # end # class Project < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :assignments # has_many :programmers, :through => :assignments # end # # For the second way, use +has_and_belongs_to_many+ in both models. This requires a join table # that has no corresponding model or primary key. # # class Programmer < ActiveRecord::Base # has_and_belongs_to_many :projects # foreign keys in the join table # end # class Project < ActiveRecord::Base # has_and_belongs_to_many :programmers # foreign keys in the join table # end # # Choosing which way to build a many-to-many relationship is not always simple. # If you need to work with the relationship model as its own entity, # use has_many :through. Use +has_and_belongs_to_many+ when working with legacy schemas or when # you never work directly with the relationship itself. # # == Is it a +belongs_to+ or +has_one+ association? # # Both express a 1-1 relationship. The difference is mostly where to place the foreign # key, which goes on the table for the class declaring the +belongs_to+ relationship. # # class User < ActiveRecord::Base # # I reference an account. # belongs_to :account # end # # class Account < ActiveRecord::Base # # One user references me. # has_one :user # end # # The tables for these classes could look something like: # # CREATE TABLE users ( # id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, # account_id int(11) default NULL, # name varchar default NULL, # PRIMARY KEY (id) # ) # # CREATE TABLE accounts ( # id int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, # name varchar default NULL, # PRIMARY KEY (id) # ) # # == Unsaved objects and associations # # You can manipulate objects and associations before they are saved to the database, but # there is some special behavior you should be aware of, mostly involving the saving of # associated objects. # # You can set the :autosave option on a has_one, belongs_to, # has_many, or has_and_belongs_to_many association. Setting it # to +true+ will _always_ save the members, whereas setting it to +false+ will # _never_ save the members. More details about :autosave option is available at # autosave_association.rb . # # === One-to-one associations # # * Assigning an object to a +has_one+ association automatically saves that object and # the object being replaced (if there is one), in order to update their primary # keys - except if the parent object is unsaved (new_record? == true). # * If either of these saves fail (due to one of the objects being invalid) the assignment # statement returns +false+ and the assignment is cancelled. # * If you wish to assign an object to a +has_one+ association without saving it, # use the association.build method (documented below). # * Assigning an object to a +belongs_to+ association does not save the object, since # the foreign key field belongs on the parent. It does not save the parent either. # # === Collections # # * Adding an object to a collection (+has_many+ or +has_and_belongs_to_many+) automatically # saves that object, except if the parent object (the owner of the collection) is not yet # stored in the database. # * If saving any of the objects being added to a collection (via push or similar) # fails, then push returns +false+. # * You can add an object to a collection without automatically saving it by using the # collection.build method (documented below). # * All unsaved (new_record? == true) members of the collection are automatically # saved when the parent is saved. # # === Association callbacks # # Similar to the normal callbacks that hook into the lifecycle of an Active Record object, # you can also define callbacks that get triggered when you add an object to or remove an # object from an association collection. # # class Project # has_and_belongs_to_many :developers, :after_add => :evaluate_velocity # # def evaluate_velocity(developer) # ... # end # end # # It's possible to stack callbacks by passing them as an array. Example: # # class Project # has_and_belongs_to_many :developers, # :after_add => [:evaluate_velocity, Proc.new { |p, d| p.shipping_date = Time.now}] # end # # Possible callbacks are: +before_add+, +after_add+, +before_remove+ and +after_remove+. # # Should any of the +before_add+ callbacks throw an exception, the object does not get # added to the collection. Same with the +before_remove+ callbacks; if an exception is # thrown the object doesn't get removed. # # === Association extensions # # The proxy objects that control the access to associations can be extended through anonymous # modules. This is especially beneficial for adding new finders, creators, and other # factory-type methods that are only used as part of this association. # # class Account < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :people do # def find_or_create_by_name(name) # first_name, last_name = name.split(" ", 2) # find_or_create_by_first_name_and_last_name(first_name, last_name) # end # end # end # # person = Account.find(:first).people.find_or_create_by_name("David Heinemeier Hansson") # person.first_name # => "David" # person.last_name # => "Heinemeier Hansson" # # If you need to share the same extensions between many associations, you can use a named # extension module. # # module FindOrCreateByNameExtension # def find_or_create_by_name(name) # first_name, last_name = name.split(" ", 2) # find_or_create_by_first_name_and_last_name(first_name, last_name) # end # end # # class Account < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :people, :extend => FindOrCreateByNameExtension # end # # class Company < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :people, :extend => FindOrCreateByNameExtension # end # # If you need to use multiple named extension modules, you can specify an array of modules # with the :extend option. # In the case of name conflicts between methods in the modules, methods in modules later # in the array supercede those earlier in the array. # # class Account < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :people, :extend => [FindOrCreateByNameExtension, FindRecentExtension] # end # # Some extensions can only be made to work with knowledge of the association proxy's internals. # Extensions can access relevant state using accessors on the association proxy: # # * +proxy_owner+ - Returns the object the association is part of. # * +proxy_reflection+ - Returns the reflection object that describes the association. # * +proxy_target+ - Returns the associated object for +belongs_to+ and +has_one+, or # the collection of associated objects for +has_many+ and +has_and_belongs_to_many+. # # === Association Join Models # # Has Many associations can be configured with the :through option to use an # explicit join model to retrieve the data. This operates similarly to a # +has_and_belongs_to_many+ association. The advantage is that you're able to add validations, # callbacks, and extra attributes on the join model. Consider the following schema: # # class Author < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :authorships # has_many :books, :through => :authorships # end # # class Authorship < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :author # belongs_to :book # end # # @author = Author.find :first # @author.authorships.collect { |a| a.book } # selects all books that the author's authorships belong to # @author.books # selects all books by using the Authorship join model # # You can also go through a +has_many+ association on the join model: # # class Firm < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :clients # has_many :invoices, :through => :clients # end # # class Client < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :firm # has_many :invoices # end # # class Invoice < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :client # end # # @firm = Firm.find :first # @firm.clients.collect { |c| c.invoices }.flatten # select all invoices for all clients of the firm # @firm.invoices # selects all invoices by going through the Client join model # # Similarly you can go through a +has_one+ association on the join model: # # class Group < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :users # has_many :avatars, :through => :users # end # # class User < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :group # has_one :avatar # end # # class Avatar < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :user # end # # @group = Group.first # @group.users.collect { |u| u.avatar }.flatten # select all avatars for all users in the group # @group.avatars # selects all avatars by going through the User join model. # # An important caveat with going through +has_one+ or +has_many+ associations on the # join model is that these associations are *read-only*. For example, the following # would not work following the previous example: # # @group.avatars << Avatar.new # this would work if User belonged_to Avatar rather than the other way around # @group.avatars.delete(@group.avatars.last) # so would this # # === Polymorphic Associations # # Polymorphic associations on models are not restricted on what types of models they # can be associated with. Rather, they specify an interface that a +has_many+ association # must adhere to. # # class Asset < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :attachable, :polymorphic => true # end # # class Post < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :assets, :as => :attachable # The :as option specifies the polymorphic interface to use. # end # # @asset.attachable = @post # # This works by using a type column in addition to a foreign key to specify the associated # record. In the Asset example, you'd need an +attachable_id+ integer column and an # +attachable_type+ string column. # # Using polymorphic associations in combination with single table inheritance (STI) is # a little tricky. In order for the associations to work as expected, ensure that you # store the base model for the STI models in the type column of the polymorphic # association. To continue with the asset example above, suppose there are guest posts # and member posts that use the posts table for STI. In this case, there must be a +type+ # column in the posts table. # # class Asset < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :attachable, :polymorphic => true # # def attachable_type=(sType) # super(sType.to_s.classify.constantize.base_class.to_s) # end # end # # class Post < ActiveRecord::Base # # because we store "Post" in attachable_type now :dependent => :destroy will work # has_many :assets, :as => :attachable, :dependent => :destroy # end # # class GuestPost < Post # end # # class MemberPost < Post # end # # == Caching # # All of the methods are built on a simple caching principle that will keep the result # of the last query around unless specifically instructed not to. The cache is even # shared across methods to make it even cheaper to use the macro-added methods without # worrying too much about performance at the first go. # # project.milestones # fetches milestones from the database # project.milestones.size # uses the milestone cache # project.milestones.empty? # uses the milestone cache # project.milestones(true).size # fetches milestones from the database # project.milestones # uses the milestone cache # # == Eager loading of associations # # Eager loading is a way to find objects of a certain class and a number of named associations. # This is one of the easiest ways of to prevent the dreaded 1+N problem in which fetching 100 # posts that each need to display their author triggers 101 database queries. Through the # use of eager loading, the 101 queries can be reduced to 2. # # class Post < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :author # has_many :comments # end # # Consider the following loop using the class above: # # for post in Post.all # puts "Post: " + post.title # puts "Written by: " + post.author.name # puts "Last comment on: " + post.comments.first.created_on # end # # To iterate over these one hundred posts, we'll generate 201 database queries. Let's # first just optimize it for retrieving the author: # # for post in Post.find(:all, :include => :author) # # This references the name of the +belongs_to+ association that also used the :author # symbol. After loading the posts, find will collect the +author_id+ from each one and load # all the referenced authors with one query. Doing so will cut down the number of queries # from 201 to 102. # # We can improve upon the situation further by referencing both associations in the finder with: # # for post in Post.find(:all, :include => [ :author, :comments ]) # # This will load all comments with a single query. This reduces the total number of queries # to 3. More generally the number of queries will be 1 plus the number of associations # named (except if some of the associations are polymorphic +belongs_to+ - see below). # # To include a deep hierarchy of associations, use a hash: # # for post in Post.find(:all, :include => [ :author, { :comments => { :author => :gravatar } } ]) # # That'll grab not only all the comments but all their authors and gravatar pictures. # You can mix and match symbols, arrays and hashes in any combination to describe the # associations you want to load. # # All of this power shouldn't fool you into thinking that you can pull out huge amounts # of data with no performance penalty just because you've reduced the number of queries. # The database still needs to send all the data to Active Record and it still needs to # be processed. So it's no catch-all for performance problems, but it's a great way to # cut down on the number of queries in a situation as the one described above. # # Since only one table is loaded at a time, conditions or orders cannot reference tables # other than the main one. If this is the case Active Record falls back to the previously # used LEFT OUTER JOIN based strategy. For example # # Post.find(:all, :include => [ :author, :comments ], :conditions => ['comments.approved = ?', true]) # # This will result in a single SQL query with joins along the lines of: # LEFT OUTER JOIN comments ON comments.post_id = posts.id and # LEFT OUTER JOIN authors ON authors.id = posts.author_id. Note that using conditions # like this can have unintended consequences. # In the above example posts with no approved comments are not returned at all, because # the conditions apply to the SQL statement as a whole and not just to the association. # You must disambiguate column references for this fallback to happen, for example # :order => "author.name DESC" will work but :order => "name DESC" will not. # # If you do want eager load only some members of an association it is usually more natural # to :include an association which has conditions defined on it: # # class Post < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :approved_comments, :class_name => 'Comment', :conditions => ['approved = ?', true] # end # # Post.find(:all, :include => :approved_comments) # # This will load posts and eager load the +approved_comments+ association, which contains # only those comments that have been approved. # # If you eager load an association with a specified :limit option, it will be ignored, # returning all the associated objects: # # class Picture < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :most_recent_comments, :class_name => 'Comment', :order => 'id DESC', :limit => 10 # end # # Picture.find(:first, :include => :most_recent_comments).most_recent_comments # => returns all associated comments. # # When eager loaded, conditions are interpolated in the context of the model class, not # the model instance. Conditions are lazily interpolated before the actual model exists. # # Eager loading is supported with polymorphic associations. # # class Address < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :addressable, :polymorphic => true # end # # A call that tries to eager load the addressable model # # Address.find(:all, :include => :addressable) # # This will execute one query to load the addresses and load the addressables with one # query per addressable type. # For example if all the addressables are either of class Person or Company then a total # of 3 queries will be executed. The list of addressable types to load is determined on # the back of the addresses loaded. This is not supported if Active Record has to fallback # to the previous implementation of eager loading and will raise ActiveRecord::EagerLoadPolymorphicError. # The reason is that the parent model's type is a column value so its corresponding table # name cannot be put in the +FROM+/+JOIN+ clauses of that query. # # == Table Aliasing # # Active Record uses table aliasing in the case that a table is referenced multiple times # in a join. If a table is referenced only once, the standard table name is used. The # second time, the table is aliased as #{reflection_name}_#{parent_table_name}. # Indexes are appended for any more successive uses of the table name. # # Post.find :all, :joins => :comments # # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN comments ON ... # Post.find :all, :joins => :special_comments # STI # # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN comments ON ... AND comments.type = 'SpecialComment' # Post.find :all, :joins => [:comments, :special_comments] # special_comments is the reflection name, posts is the parent table name # # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN comments ON ... INNER JOIN comments special_comments_posts # # Acts as tree example: # # TreeMixin.find :all, :joins => :children # # => SELECT ... FROM mixins INNER JOIN mixins childrens_mixins ... # TreeMixin.find :all, :joins => {:children => :parent} # # => SELECT ... FROM mixins INNER JOIN mixins childrens_mixins ... # INNER JOIN parents_mixins ... # TreeMixin.find :all, :joins => {:children => {:parent => :children}} # # => SELECT ... FROM mixins INNER JOIN mixins childrens_mixins ... # INNER JOIN parents_mixins ... # INNER JOIN mixins childrens_mixins_2 # # Has and Belongs to Many join tables use the same idea, but add a _join suffix: # # Post.find :all, :joins => :categories # # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN categories_posts ... INNER JOIN categories ... # Post.find :all, :joins => {:categories => :posts} # # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN categories_posts ... INNER JOIN categories ... # INNER JOIN categories_posts posts_categories_join INNER JOIN posts posts_categories # Post.find :all, :joins => {:categories => {:posts => :categories}} # # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN categories_posts ... INNER JOIN categories ... # INNER JOIN categories_posts posts_categories_join INNER JOIN posts posts_categories # INNER JOIN categories_posts categories_posts_join INNER JOIN categories categories_posts_2 # # If you wish to specify your own custom joins using a :joins option, those table # names will take precedence over the eager associations: # # Post.find :all, :joins => :comments, :joins => "inner join comments ..." # # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN comments_posts ON ... INNER JOIN comments ... # Post.find :all, :joins => [:comments, :special_comments], :joins => "inner join comments ..." # # => SELECT ... FROM posts INNER JOIN comments comments_posts ON ... # INNER JOIN comments special_comments_posts ... # INNER JOIN comments ... # # Table aliases are automatically truncated according to the maximum length of table identifiers # according to the specific database. # # == Modules # # By default, associations will look for objects within the current module scope. Consider: # # module MyApplication # module Business # class Firm < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :clients # end # # class Client < ActiveRecord::Base; end # end # end # # When Firm#clients is called, it will in turn call # MyApplication::Business::Client.find_all_by_firm_id(firm.id). # If you want to associate with a class in another module scope, this can be done by # specifying the complete class name. # # module MyApplication # module Business # class Firm < ActiveRecord::Base; end # end # # module Billing # class Account < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :firm, :class_name => "MyApplication::Business::Firm" # end # end # end # # == Bi-directional associations # # When you specify an association there is usually an association on the associated model # that specifies the same relationship in reverse. For example, with the following models: # # class Dungeon < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :traps # has_one :evil_wizard # end # # class Trap < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :dungeon # end # # class EvilWizard < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :dungeon # end # # The +traps+ association on +Dungeon+ and the the +dungeon+ association on +Trap+ are # the inverse of each other and the inverse of the +dungeon+ association on +EvilWizard+ # is the +evil_wizard+ association on +Dungeon+ (and vice-versa). By default, # Active Record doesn't know anything about these inverse relationships and so no object # loading optimisation is possible. For example: # # d = Dungeon.first # t = d.traps.first # d.level == t.dungeon.level # => true # d.level = 10 # d.level == t.dungeon.level # => false # # The +Dungeon+ instances +d+ and t.dungeon in the above example refer to # the same object data from the database, but are actually different in-memory copies # of that data. Specifying the :inverse_of option on associations lets you tell # Active Record about inverse relationships and it will optimise object loading. For # example, if we changed our model definitions to: # # class Dungeon < ActiveRecord::Base # has_many :traps, :inverse_of => :dungeon # has_one :evil_wizard, :inverse_of => :dungeon # end # # class Trap < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :dungeon, :inverse_of => :traps # end # # class EvilWizard < ActiveRecord::Base # belongs_to :dungeon, :inverse_of => :evil_wizard # end # # Then, from our code snippet above, +d+ and t.dungeon are actually the same # in-memory instance and our final d.level == t.dungeon.level will return +true+. # # There are limitations to :inverse_of support: # # * does not work with :through associations. # * does not work with :polymorphic associations. # * for +belongs_to+ associations +has_many+ inverse associations are ignored. # # == Type safety with ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch # # If you attempt to assign an object to an association that doesn't match the inferred # or specified :class_name, you'll get an ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch. # # == Options # # All of the association macros can be specialized through options. This makes cases # more complex than the simple and guessable ones possible. module ClassMethods # Specifies a one-to-many association. The following methods for retrieval and query of # collections of associated objects will be added: # # [collection(force_reload = false)] # Returns an array of all the associated objects. # An empty array is returned if none are found. # [collection<<(object, ...)] # Adds one or more objects to the collection by setting their foreign keys to the collection's primary key. # Note that this operation instantly fires update sql without waiting for the save or update call on the # parent object. # [collection.delete(object, ...)] # Removes one or more objects from the collection by setting their foreign keys to +NULL+. # Objects will be in addition destroyed if they're associated with :dependent => :destroy, # and deleted if they're associated with :dependent => :delete_all. # [collection=objects] # Replaces the collections content by deleting and adding objects as appropriate. If the :through # option is true callbacks in the join models are triggered except destroy callbacks, since deletion is # direct. # [collection_singular_ids] # Returns an array of the associated objects' ids # [collection_singular_ids=ids] # Replace the collection with the objects identified by the primary keys in +ids+. This # method loads the models and calls collection=. See above. # [collection.clear] # Removes every object from the collection. This destroys the associated objects if they # are associated with :dependent => :destroy, deletes them directly from the # database if :dependent => :delete_all, otherwise sets their foreign keys to +NULL+. # If the :through option is true no destroy callbacks are invoked on the join models. # Join models are directly deleted. # [collection.empty?] # Returns +true+ if there are no associated objects. # [collection.size] # Returns the number of associated objects. # [collection.find(...)] # Finds an associated object according to the same rules as ActiveRecord::Base.find. # [collection.exists?(...)] # Checks whether an associated object with the given conditions exists. # Uses the same rules as ActiveRecord::Base.exists?. # [collection.build(attributes = {}, ...)] # Returns one or more new objects of the collection type that have been instantiated # with +attributes+ and linked to this object through a foreign key, but have not yet # been saved. # [collection.create(attributes = {})] # Returns a new object of the collection type that has been instantiated # with +attributes+, linked to this object through a foreign key, and that has already # been saved (if it passed the validation). *Note*: This only works if the base model # already exists in the DB, not if it is a new (unsaved) record! # # (*Note*: +collection+ is replaced with the symbol passed as the first argument, so # has_many :clients would add among others clients.empty?.) # # === Example # # Example: A Firm class declares has_many :clients, which will add: # * Firm#clients (similar to Clients.find :all, :conditions => ["firm_id = ?", id]) # * Firm#clients<< # * Firm#clients.delete # * Firm#clients= # * Firm#client_ids # * Firm#client_ids= # * Firm#clients.clear # * Firm#clients.empty?

Use it only if that name can't be inferred # from the association name. So has_many :products will by default be linked # to the Product class, but if the real class name is SpecialProduct, you'll have to # specify it with this option. # [:conditions] # Specify the conditions that the associated objects must meet in order to be included as a +WHERE+ # SQL fragment, such as price > 5 AND name LIKE 'B%'. Record creations from # the association are scoped if a hash is used. # has_many :posts, :conditions => {:published => true} will create published # posts with @blog.posts.create or @blog.posts.build. # [:order] # Specify the order in which the associated objects are returned as an ORDER BY SQL fragment, # such as last_name, first_name DESC. # [:foreign_key] # Specify the foreign key used for the association.

If set to # :restrict this object cannot be deleted if it has any associated object. # # *Warning:* This option is ignored when used with :through option. # # [:finder_sql] # Specify a complete SQL statement to fetch the association. This is a good way to go for complex # associations that depend on multiple tables. Note: When this option is used, +find_in_collection+ # is _not_ added. # [:counter_sql] # Specify a complete SQL statement to fetch the size of the association. If :finder_sql is # specified but not :counter_sql, :counter_sql will be generated by # replacing SELECT ... FROM with SELECT COUNT(*) FROM. # [:extend] # Specify a named module for extending the proxy. See "Association extensions". # [:include] # Specify second-order associations that should be eager loaded when the collection is loaded. # [:group] # An attribute name by which the result should be grouped. Uses the GROUP BY SQL-clause. # [:having] # Combined with +:group+ this can be used to filter the records that a GROUP BY # returns. Uses the HAVING SQL-clause. # [:limit] # An integer determining the limit on the number of rows that should be returned. # [:offset] # An integer determining the offset from where the rows should be fetched. So at 5, # it would skip the first 4 rows. # [:select] # By default, this is * as in SELECT * FROM, but can be changed if # you, for example, want to do a join but not include the joined columns. Do not forget # to include the primary and foreign keys, otherwise it will raise an error. # [:as] # Specifies a polymorphic interface (See belongs_to). # [:through] # Specifies a join model through which to perform the query. Options for :class_name # and :foreign_key are ignored, as the association uses the source reflection. You # can only use a :through query through a belongs_to, has_one # or has_many association on the join model. The collection of join models # can be managed via the collection API. For example, new join models are created for # newly associated objects, and if some are gone their rows are deleted (directly, # no destroy callbacks are triggered). # [:source] # Specifies the source association name used by has_many :through queries. # Only use it if the name cannot be inferred from the association. # has_many :subscribers, :through => :subscriptions will look for either :subscribers or # :subscriber on Subscription, unless a :source is given. # [:source_type] # Specifies type of the source association used by has_many :through queries where the source # association is a polymorphic +belongs_to+. # [:uniq] # If true, duplicates will be omitted from the collection. Useful in conjunction with :through. # [:readonly] # If true, all the associated objects are readonly through the association. # [:validate] # If +false+, don't validate the associated objects when saving the parent object. true by default. # [:autosave] # If true, always save the associated objects or destroy them if marked for destruction, # when saving the parent object. If false, never save or destroy the associated objects. # By default, only save associated objects that are new records. # [:inverse_of] # Specifies the name of the belongs_to association on the associated object # that is the inverse of this has_many association.

So a join between Developer and Project # will give the default join table name of "developers_projects" because "D" outranks "P". # Note that this precedence is calculated using the < operator for String. This # means that if the strings are of different lengths, and the strings are equal when compared # up to the shortest length, then the longer string is considered of higher # lexical precedence than the shorter one. For example, one would expect the tables "paper_boxes" and "papers" # to generate a join table name of "papers_paper_boxes" because of the length of the name "paper_boxes", # but it in fact generates a join table name of "paper_boxes_papers". Be aware of this caveat, and use the # custom :join_table option if you need to. # # The join table should not have a primary key or a model associated with it. You must manually generate the # join table with a migration such as this: # # class CreateDevelopersProjectsJoinTable < ActiveRecord::Migration # def self.up # create_table :developers_projects, :id => false do |t| # t.integer :developer_id # t.integer :project_id # end # end # # def self.down # drop_table :developers_projects # end # end # # Deprecated: Any additional fields added to the join table will be placed as attributes when # pulling records out through +has_and_belongs_to_many+ associations.
