Class Method Summary

Association - Inherited

.new

Instance Attribute Summary

Association - Inherited

#disable_joins,
#loaded?

Has the target been already loaded?
#options, #owner, #reflection,
#stale_target?

The target is stale if the target no longer points to the record(s) that the relevant foreign_key(s) refers to.
#target,
#target=

Sets the target of this association to \target, and the loaded flag to true.
#find_target, #find_target?,
#foreign_key_present?

Returns true if there is a foreign key present on the owner which references the target.
#violates_strict_loading?

Instance Method Summary

Association - Inherited

#create, #create!, #extensions, #initialize_attributes, #inversed_from, #inversed_from_queries,
#klass

Returns the class of the target.
#load_target

Loads the target if needed and returns it.
#loaded!

Asserts the target has been loaded setting the loaded flag to true.
#marshal_dump

We can’t dump @reflection and @through_reflection since it contains the scope proc.
#marshal_load,
#reload

Reloads the target and returns self on success.
#remove_inverse_instance

Remove the inverse association, if possible.
#reset

Resets the loaded flag to false and sets the target to nil.
#reset_negative_cache, #reset_scope, #scope,
#set_inverse_instance

Set the inverse association, if possible.
#set_inverse_instance_from_queries,
#association_scope

The scope for this association.
#build_record, #enqueue_destroy_association,
#ensure_klass_exists!

Reader and writer methods call this so that consistent errors are presented when the association target class does not exist.
#foreign_key_for?

Returns true if record contains the foreign_key.
#inversable?, #inverse_association_for,
#inverse_reflection_for

Can be redefined by subclasses, notably polymorphic belongs_to The record parameter is necessary to support polymorphic inverses as we must check for the association in the specific class of the record.
#invertible_for?

Returns true if inverse association on the given record needs to be set.
#matches_foreign_key?,
#raise_on_type_mismatch!

Raises ::ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch unless record is of the kind of the class of the associated objects.
#scope_for_create,
#skip_statement_cache?

Returns true if statement cache should be skipped on the association reader.
#skip_strict_loading,
#stale_state

This should be implemented to return the values of the relevant key(s) on the owner, so that when stale_state is different from the value stored on the last find_target, the target is stale.
#target_scope

Can be overridden (i.e. in ThroughAssociation) to merge in other scopes (i.e.
