Class: ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::ConnectionHandler

Overview

ConnectionHandler is a collection of ConnectionPool objects. It is used for keeping separate connection pools that connect to different databases.

For example, suppose that you have 5 models, with the following hierarchy:

class Author < ActiveRecord::Base
end

class BankAccount < ActiveRecord::Base
end

class Book < ActiveRecord::Base
  establish_connection :library_db
end

class ScaryBook < Book
end

class GoodBook < Book
end

And a database.yml that looked like this:

development:
  database: my_application
  host: localhost

library_db:
  database: library
  host: some.library.org

Your primary database in the development environment is “my_application” but the Book model connects to a separate database called “library_db” (this can even be a database on a different machine).

Book, ScaryBook and GoodBook will all use the same connection pool to “library_db” while Author, BankAccount, and any other models you create will use the default connection pool to “my_application”.

The various connection pools are managed by a single instance of ConnectionHandler accessible via Base.connection_handler. All Active Record models use this handler to determine the connection pool that they should use.

The ConnectionHandler class is not coupled with the Active models, as it has no knowledge about the model. The model needs to pass a connection specification name to the handler, in order to look up the correct connection pool.

#clear_active_connections!(role = ActiveRecord::Base.current_role)

Returns any connections in use by the current thread back to the pool, and also returns connections to the pool cached by threads that are no longer alive.

Clears the cache which maps classes.

end

#connected?(spec_name, role: ActiveRecord::Base.current_role, shard: ActiveRecord::Base.current_shard) ⇒ Boolean

Returns true if a connection that’s accessible to this class has already been opened.

# File 'activerecord/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb', line 1133

#flush_idle_connections!(role = ActiveRecord::Base.current_role)

Disconnects all currently idle connections.

See ConnectionPool#flush! for details.

end

#remove_connection(owner, role: ActiveRecord::Base.current_role, shard: ActiveRecord::Base.current_shard)

Deprecated.

Use #remove_connection_pool, which now returns a DatabaseConfig object instead of a ::Hash

Remove the connection for this class. This will close the active connection and the defined connection (if they exist). The result can be used as an argument for #establish_connection, for easily re-establishing the connection.

    end
  end
end

#retrieve_connection_pool(owner, role: ActiveRecord::Base.current_role, shard: ActiveRecord::Base.current_shard)

Retrieving the connection pool happens a lot, so we cache it in @owner_to_pool_manager. This makes retrieving the connection pool O(1) once the process is warm. When a connection is established or removed, we invalidate the cache.

# File 'activerecord/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract/connection_pool.rb', line 1161

def retrieve_connection_pool(owner, role: ActiveRecord::Base.current_role, shard: ActiveRecord::Base.current_shard)
  pool_config = get_pool_manager(owner)&.get_pool_config(role, shard)
  pool_config&.pool
end

#while_preventing_writes(enabled = true)

Prevent writing to the database regardless of role.

In some cases you may want to prevent writes to the database even if you are on a database that can write. while_preventing_writes will prevent writes to the database for the duration of the block.

This method does not provide the same protection as a readonly user and is meant to be a safeguard against accidental writes.

See READ_QUERY for the queries that are blocked by this method.
