57 # Observer classes respond to lifecycle callbacks to implement trigger-like
58 # behavior outside the original class. This is a great way to reduce the
59 # clutter that normally comes when the model class is burdened with
60 # functionality that doesn't pertain to the core responsibility of the
61 # class. Example:
62 #
63 # class CommentObserver < ActiveRecord::Observer
64 # def after_save(comment)
65 # Notifications.deliver_comment("admin@do.com", "New comment was posted", comment)
66 # end
67 # end
68 #
69 # This Observer sends an email when a Comment#save is finished.
70 #
71 # class ContactObserver < ActiveRecord::Observer
72 # def after_create(contact)
73 # contact.logger.info('New contact added!')
74 # end
75 #
76 # def after_destroy(contact)
77 # contact.logger.warn("Contact with an id of #{contact.id} was destroyed!")
78 # end
79 # end
80 #
81 # This Observer uses logger to log when specific callbacks are triggered.
82 #
83 # == Observing a class that can't be inferred
84 #
85 # Observers will by default be mapped to the class with which they share a name. So CommentObserver will
86 # be tied to observing Comment, ProductManagerObserver to ProductManager, and so on. If you want to name your observer
87 # differently than the class you're interested in observing, you can use the Observer.observe class method which takes
88 # either the concrete class (Product) or a symbol for that class (:product):
89 #
90 # class AuditObserver < ActiveRecord::Observer
91 # observe :account
92 #
93 # def after_update(account)
94 # AuditTrail.new(account, "UPDATED")
95 # end
96 # end
97 #
98 # If the audit observer needs to watch more than one kind of object, this can be specified with multiple arguments:
99 #
100 # class AuditObserver < ActiveRecord::Observer
101 # observe :account, :balance
102 #
103 # def after_update(record)
104 # AuditTrail.new(record, "UPDATED")
105 # end
106 # end
107 #
108 # The AuditObserver will now act on both updates to Account and Balance by treating them both as records.
109 #
110 # == Available callback methods
111 #
112 # The observer can implement callback methods for each of the methods described in the Callbacks module.
113 #
114 # == Storing Observers in Rails
115 #
116 # If you're using Active Record within Rails, observer classes are usually stored in app/models with the
117 # naming convention of app/models/audit_observer.rb.
118 #
119 # == Configuration
120 #
121 # In order to activate an observer, list it in the <tt>config.active_record.observers</tt> configuration setting in your
122 # <tt>config/environment.rb</tt> file.
123 #
124 # config.active_record.observers = :comment_observer, :signup_observer
125 #
126 # Observers will not be invoked unless you define these in your application configuration.
127 #
128 # == Loading
129 #
130 # Observers register themselves in the model class they observe, since it is the class that
131 # notifies them of events when they occur. As a side-effect, when an observer is loaded its
132 # corresponding model class is loaded.
133 #
134 # Up to (and including) Rails 2.0.2 observers were instantiated between plugins and
135 # application initializers. Now observers are loaded after application initializers,
136 # so observed models can make use of extensions.
137 #
138 # If by any chance you are using observed models in the initialization you can still
139 # load their observers by calling <tt>ModelObserver.instance</tt> before. Observers are
140 # singletons and that call instantiates and registers them.
141 #
