Question
Rails - AciveRecord use :dependent => :destroy on condition
What will be the best/DRY way to destroy all the dependents of an object based on a condition. ?
Ex:
class Worker < ActiveRecord::Base
has_many :jobs , :dependent => :destroy
has_many :coworkers , :dependent => :destroy
has_many :company_credit_cards, :dependent => :destroy
end
condition will be on Destroy:
if self.is_fired?
#Destroy dependants records
else
# Do not Destroy records
end
Is There a Way to use Proc in the :dependent condition. I have found the methods to destroy the dependents individually, but this is not DRY and flexible for further associations,
Note: I have made up the example.. not an actual logic
