default_scope breaks (update|delete|destroy)_all in some cases
Reported by releod | October 15th, 2010 @ 05:13 PM
Rails 3.
The code posted below, is purely for illustration of this problem. Hopefully this does not confuse the issue.
Given I have a Post model, and a Comment model. Post has_many Comments, and Comment belongs_to Post.
With a default_scope set on the Post model, defining joins() and where() relations. In this case where() is dependent on joins().
Normally Posts wouldn't be dependent on Comments. Again, I just want to give a simple example. This could be any case when where() is dependent on joins() or other methods.
class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :comments, :dependent => :destroy
default_scope joins(:comments).where("comments.id < 999")
end
class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :post, :counter_cache => true
end
Running the following command:
Post.update_all(:title => Time.now)
Produces the following query, and ultimately throws ActiveRecord::StatementInvalid:
UPDATE `posts` SET `title` = '2010-10-15 15:59:27' WHERE (comments.id < 999)
Again, update_all, delete_all, destroy_all behave the same way. I discovered this behaviour when my application complained when trying to update the counter_cache. Which eventually drills down into update_all.
