Question

Let’s suppose I have a table called ‘user_products’ and a corresponding model called UserProduct in my Rails application. I also have a field called ‘is_temporary’ in my table. Now suppose I want to run a query like this but using the ActiveRecord abstraction layer:

UPDATE user_products SET is_temporary = false WHERE user_id = 12345;

Is there a way I can do this using ActiveRecord? Maybe something along the lines of

UserProduct.find_by_user_id(12345).update_attributes(:is_temporary => false)

I’d like only one query to be run for this to happen.

Answer 1

UserProduct.update_all({:is_temporary => false}, {:user_id => 12345})
