The Active Record integration adds support for database transactions, automatically saving the record, named scopes, validation errors.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'state_machines-activerecord'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install state_machines-activerecord
class Vehicle < ActiveRecord::Base
state_machine :initial => :parked do
before_transition :parked => any - :parked, :do => :put_on_seatbelt
after_transition any => :parked do |vehicle, transition|
vehicle.seatbelt = 'off'
end
around_transition :benchmark
event :ignite do
transition :parked => :idling
end
state :first_gear, :second_gear do
validates_presence_of :seatbelt_on
end
end
def put_on_seatbelt
...
end
def benchmark
...
yield
...
end
end
Usage of the generated scopes (assuming default column state
):
Vehicle.with_state(:parked) # also plural #with_states
Vehicle.without_states(:first_gear, :second_gear) # also singular #without_state
