cast(value)

Type casts a value from user input (e.g. from a setter). This value may be a string from the form builder, or a ruby object passed to a setter. There is currently no way to differentiate between which source it came from.

The return value of this method will be returned from ActiveRecord::AttributeMethods::Read#read_attribute. See also: Value#cast_value.

value The raw input, as provided to the attribute setter.

📝 Source code 
# File activemodel/lib/active_model/type/value.rb, line 45
      def cast(value)
        cast_value(value) unless value.nil?
      end

changed?(old_value, new_value, _new_value_before_type_cast)

Determines whether a value has changed for dirty checking. old_value and new_value will always be type-cast. Types should not need to override this method.

📝 Source code 
# File activemodel/lib/active_model/type/value.rb, line 72
      def changed?(old_value, new_value, _new_value_before_type_cast)
        old_value != new_value
      end

changed_in_place?(raw_old_value, new_value)

Determines whether the mutable value has been modified since it was read. Returns false by default. If your type returns an object which could be mutated, you should override this method. You will need to either:

or

raw_old_value The original value, before being passed to deserialize.

new_value The current value, after type casting.

📝 Source code 
# File activemodel/lib/active_model/type/value.rb, line 93
      def changed_in_place?(raw_old_value, new_value)
        false
      end

deserialize(value)

Converts a value from database input to the appropriate ruby type. The return value of this method will be returned from ActiveRecord::AttributeMethods::Read#read_attribute. The default implementation just calls Value#cast.

value The raw input, as provided from the database.

📝 Source code 
# File activemodel/lib/active_model/type/value.rb, line 31
      def deserialize(value)
        cast(value)
      end

hash()

      def hash
        [self.class, precision, scale, limit].hash
      end
🔎 See on GitHub

serializable?(value)

Returns true if this type can convert value to a type that is usable by the database. For example a boolean type can return true if the value parameter is a Ruby boolean, but may return false if the value parameter is some other object.

📝 Source code 
# File activemodel/lib/active_model/type/value.rb, line 18
      def serializable?(value)
        true
      end
🔎 See on GitHub

serialize(value)

Casts a value from the ruby type to a type that the database knows how to understand. The returned value from this method should be a String, Numeric, Date, Time, Symbol, true, false, or nil.

📝 Source code 
# File activemodel/lib/active_model/type/value.rb, line 53
      def serialize(value)
        value
      end

cast_value(value)

Convenience method for types which do not need separate type casting behavior for user and database inputs. Called by Value#cast for values except nil.

        def cast_value(value) # :doc:
          value
