Overview

Active Model Float Type

::ActiveModel::Attribute type for floating point numeric values. It is registered under the :float key.

class BagOfCoffee
  include ActiveModel::Attributes

  attribute :weight, :float
end

Values are cast using their to_f method, except for the following strings:

  • Blank strings are cast to nil.

  • "Infinity" is cast to Float::INFINITY.

  • "-Infinity" is cast to -Float::INFINITY.

  • "NaN" is cast to Float::NAN.

    bag = BagOfCoffee.new

    bag.weight = “0.25” bag.weight # => 0.25

    bag.weight = “” bag.weight # => nil

    bag.weight = “NaN” bag.weight # => Float::NAN

Instance Method Summary

#==, #as_json, #assert_valid_value,
#cast

::ActiveModel::Type casts a value from user input (e.g. from a setter).
#changed?

Determines whether a value has changed for dirty checking.
#changed_in_place?

Determines whether the mutable value has been modified since it was read.
#deserialize

Converts a value from database input to the appropriate ruby type.
#eql?

Alias for Value#==.
#hash,
#serializable?

Returns true if this type can convert value to a type that is usable by the database.
#serialize

Casts a value from the ruby type to a type that the database knows how to understand.
#type

Returns the unique type name as a ::Symbol.
#cast_value

Convenience method for types which do not need separate type casting behavior for user and database inputs.
