Block syntax for update_attributes
Reported by Jakob S | April 3rd, 2011 @ 10:48 AM
ActiveRecord::Base#new and #create accepts both a Hash of attributes and a block:
User.create(:first_name => 'Jamie') do |u|
u.is_admin = false
end
This patch adds that same functionality to update_attributes:
user.update_attributes(:first_name => 'Jamie') do |u|
u.is_admin = false
end
user.first_name #=> 'Jamie'
user.is_admin #=> false
A use case for this is in the administration area, where authenticated users might be allowed to update attributes that are otherwise protected.
