Description

Adds update_attribute and update_attributes in honor of ActiveRecord to provide an easy update and save of attributes: 

Person.find(:first).update_attribute("name", "David")  # => true
Person.find(:first).update_attributes("name" => "David", "last" => "Last")  # => true

Same patch as before but reworked because the patch utility can't find the context of the changes (I'm sure this is happening because the patch was created months ago)

  • resolution set to worksforme.

According to activeresource/README in edge, these methods are already supported. My guess is that someone else had the same good idea and it's been implemented. Please check edge and, if the feature isn't to your liking, reopen this ticket or submit a new one. Thanks.

I don't see anything in activeresource/README that says update_attributes is supported and from my test application I get an error when I try to update my ARes (rev 7774) object:

NoMethodError: undefined method `update_attributes'

So I reopen the bug, maybe I missed something though and update_attributes is supported, feel free to close it then :)

+1 for this patch. It improves the usage of an ActiveResource in places where you previously had an ActiveRecord.

P.S: I had to manually tweak the patch to be able to apply it on rev. 8650.
