Working With Rails

Active Record Context

Simple ActiveRecord context for caching AR objects. It caches all records from #find queries that aren’t readonly, and that don’t have eagerly loaded associations. It only looks in the context on simple Foo.find(id) queries with no conditions. It’s designed to work as an alternative to eager loading associations. It will also help all the extra find calls for models that access their associations in callbacks/validations.

It only uses the context when it’s activated. To activate, you can set a controller around_filter:

around_filter :set_context

def set_context
  ActiveRecord::Base.with_context do
    yield
  end
end

Set Technoweenie::ActiveRecordContext.log_context_activity = true to turn on debug logging.
