Immortal

Make any ActiveRecord model paranoid by just including Immortal, and instead of being deleted from the database, the object will just marked as 'deleted' with a boolean field in the database.

Installation

Add the gem dependency to your Gemfile:

gem 'immortal'

Usage

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  include Immortal
end

And add a boolean field called deleted to that model:

class AddDeletedToUsers < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def self.up
    add_column :users, :deleted, :boolean
  end

  def self.down
    remove_column :users, :deleted
  end
end

TODO

• Add documentation in the code
