I guess I am the only one using it like this, by i regularly start my
rails console
to quickly show the column-names of models.
Since 4.1 (afaik), the first call to a class does not return the model
introspection, but instead urges me to use Batch.connection
to
establish
a connection???
If I use a specific method to get the column names, I get no error, and
afterwards the class introspection just works.
Of course this is no biggie, but I am curious what the cause is of the
this
behaviour, whether this is intended or not, and how I could circumvent
it.
Example console output:
Loading development environment (Rails 4.1.0)
:001 > Batch
=> Batch (call 'Batch.connection' to establish a connection)
:002 > Batch.column_names
=> ["id", "name", "batch_nr", "revision", "comments",
"batch_status_id",
"created_at", "updated_at"]
:003 > Batch
=> Batch(id: integer, name: string, batch_nr: string, revision: string,
comments: text, batch_status_id: integer, created_at: datetime,
updated_at:
datetime)
Any tips or hints would be greatly appreciated.
