#connected_to(role: nil, shard: nil, prevent_writes: false, &blk)

Connects to a role (e.g. writing, reading, or a custom role) and/or shard for the duration of the block. At the end of the block the connection will be returned to the original role / shard.

If only a role is passed, Active Record will look up the connection based on the requested role. If a non-established role is requested an ConnectionNotEstablished error will be raised:

ActiveRecord::Base.connected_to(role: :writing) do
  Dog.create! # creates dog using dog writing connection
end

ActiveRecord::Base.connected_to(role: :reading) do
  Dog.create! # throws exception because we're on a replica
end

When swapping to a shard, the role must be passed as well. If a non-existent shard is passed, an ConnectionNotEstablished error will be raised.

When a shard and role is passed, Active Record will first lookup the role, and then look up the connection by shard key.

ActiveRecord::Base.connected_to(role: :reading, shard: :shard_one_replica) do
  Dog.first # finds first Dog record stored on the shard one replica
end
[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'activerecord/lib/active_record/connection_handling.rb', line 134

  if !connection_class? && !primary_class?
    raise NotImplementedError, "calling `connected_to` is only allowed on the abstract class that established the connection."
  end

  unless role || shard
    raise ArgumentError, "must provide a `shard` and/or `role`."
  end

  with_role_and_shard(role, shard, prevent_writes, &blk)
end

#connected_to?(role:, shard: ActiveRecord::Base.default_shard) ⇒ Boolean

Returns true if role is the current connected role and/or current connected shard. If no shard is passed, the default will be used.

ActiveRecord::Base.connected_to(role: :writing) do
  ActiveRecord::Base.connected_to?(role: :writing) #=> true
  ActiveRecord::Base.connected_to?(role: :reading) #=> false
end

ActiveRecord::Base.connected_to(role: :reading, shard: :shard_one) do
  ActiveRecord::Base.connected_to?(role: :reading, shard: :shard_one) #=> true
  ActiveRecord::Base.connected_to?(role: :reading, shard: :default) #=> false
  ActiveRecord::Base.connected_to?(role: :writing, shard: :shard_one) #=> true
end

# File 'activerecord/lib/active_record/connection_handling.rb', line 239

def connected_to?(role:, shard: ActiveRecord::Base.default_shard)
  current_role == role.to_sym && current_shard == shard.to_sym
end

#connected_to_many(*classes, role:, shard: nil, prevent_writes: false)

Connects a role and/or shard to the provided connection names. Optionally prevent_writes can be passed to block writes on a connection. reading will automatically set prevent_writes to true.

connected_to_many is an alternative to deeply nested #connected_to blocks.

Usage:

ActiveRecord::Base.connected_to_many(AnimalsRecord, MealsRecord, role: :reading) do
  Dog.first # Read from animals replica
  Dinner.first # Read from meals replica
  Person.first # Read from primary writer
end
[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'activerecord/lib/active_record/connection_handling.rb', line 163

def connected_to_many(*classes, role:, shard: nil, prevent_writes: false)
  classes = classes.flatten

  if self != Base || classes.include?(Base)
    raise NotImplementedError, "connected_to_many can only be called on ActiveRecord::Base."
  end

  prevent_writes = true if role == ActiveRecord.reading_role

  append_to_connected_to_stack(role: role, shard: shard, prevent_writes: prevent_writes, klasses: classes)
  yield
ensure
  connected_to_stack.pop
end

#connecting_to(role: default_role, shard: default_shard, prevent_writes: false)

Use a specified connection.

This method is useful for ensuring that a specific connection is being used. For example, when booting a console in readonly mode.

It is not recommended to use this method in a request since it does not yield to a block like #connected_to.

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'activerecord/lib/active_record/connection_handling.rb', line 185

def connecting_to(role: default_role, shard: default_shard, prevent_writes: false)
  prevent_writes = true if role == ActiveRecord.reading_role

  append_to_connected_to_stack(role: role, shard: shard, prevent_writes: prevent_writes, klasses: [self])
end

#connection

Returns the connection currently associated with the class. This can also be used to “borrow” the connection to do database work unrelated to any of the specific Active Records.

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'activerecord/lib/active_record/connection_handling.rb', line 253

def connection
  retrieve_connection
end

#connection_db_config

Returns the db_config object from the associated connection:

ActiveRecord::Base.connection_db_config
  #<ActiveRecord::DatabaseConfigurations::HashConfig:0x00007fd1acbded10 @env_name="development",
    @name="primary", @config={pool: 5, timeout: 5000, database: "storage/development.sqlite3", adapter: "sqlite3"}>

Use only for reading.

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'activerecord/lib/active_record/connection_handling.rb', line 278

def connection_db_config
  connection_pool.db_config
end

#connection_pool

[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'activerecord/lib/active_record/connection_handling.rb', line 282

def connection_pool
  connection_handler.retrieve_connection_pool(connection_specification_name, role: current_role, shard: current_shard) || raise(ConnectionNotEstablished)
end

#connects_to(database: {}, shards: {})

Connects a model to the databases specified. The database keyword takes a hash consisting of a role and a database_key.

This will look up the database config using the database_key and establish a connection to that config.

class AnimalsModel < ApplicationRecord
  self.abstract_class = true

  connects_to database: { writing: :primary, reading: :primary_replica }
end

connects_to also supports horizontal sharding. The horizontal sharding API supports read replicas as well. You can connect a model to a list of shards like this:

class AnimalsModel < ApplicationRecord
  self.abstract_class = true

  connects_to shards: {
    default: { writing: :primary, reading: :primary_replica },
    shard_two: { writing: :primary_shard_two, reading: :primary_shard_replica_two }
  }
end

Returns an array of database connections.

Raises:

  • (NotImplementedError)
[ GitHub ]

  
# File 'activerecord/lib/active_record/connection_handling.rb', line 81

def connects_to(database: {}, shards: {})
  raise NotImplementedError, "`connects_to` can only be called on ActiveRecord::Base or abstract classes" unless self == Base || abstract_class?

  if database.present? && shards.present?
    raise ArgumentError, "`connects_to` can only accept a `database` or `shards` argument, but not both arguments."
  end

  connections = []

  if shards.empty?
    shards[:default] = database
  end

  self.default_shard = shards.keys.first

  shards.each do |shard, database_keys|
    database_keys.each do |role, database_key|
      db_config = resolve_config_for_connection(database_key)

      self.connection_class = true
      connections << connection_handler.establish_connection(db_config, owner_name: self, role: role, shard: shard.to_sym)
    end
  end

  connections

#establish_connection(config_or_env = nil)

Establishes the connection to the database. Accepts a hash as input where the :adapter key must be specified with the name of a database adapter (in lower-case) example for regular databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, etc):

ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(
  adapter:  "mysql2",
  host:     "localhost",
  username: "myuser",
  password: "mypass",
  database: "somedatabase"
)

Example for SQLite database:

ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(
  adapter:  "sqlite3",
  database: "path/to/dbfile"
)

Also accepts keys as strings (for parsing from YAML for example):

ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(
  "adapter"  => "sqlite3",
  "database" => "path/to/dbfile"
)

Or a URL:

ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(
  "postgres://myuser:mypass@localhost/somedatabase"
)

In case {ActiveRecord::Base.configurations} is set (Rails automatically loads the contents of config/database.yml into it), a symbol can also be given as argument, representing a key in the configuration hash:

ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(:production)

The exceptions AdapterNotSpecified, AdapterNotFound, and ArgumentError may be returned on an error.

#prohibit_shard_swapping(enabled = true)

Prohibit swapping shards while inside of the passed block.

In some cases you may want to be able to swap shards but not allow a nested call to connected_to or connected_to_many to swap again. This is useful in cases you’re using sharding to provide per-request database isolation.

#while_preventing_writes(enabled = true, &block)

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.
