Get attributes of model which are accessible?

Rails
1

Hi all

I like to make all my model’s attributes not accessible by default so
they are safe.
But now I needed more than an hour to track a bug down to the fact, that
a new attribute has not been set to accessible yet, so I thought about
how I could inform me in development mode when a parameter for a model
is sent by a form that is meant for a not accessible attribute.

So I need some way to determine if an attribute is accessible or not…
How can I do this?

Thanks
Josh

you make array of attributes which form can get access to.
then you use mail to inform you whenever a attribute is trying to
connect which have no access :slight_smile:

Understand what I mean?
