Monitor database table for external changes from within Rails application
- by jhwist
I'm integrating some non-rails-model tables in my Rails application. Everything works out very nicely, the way I set up the model is:
class Change < ActiveRecord::Base
establish_connection(ActiveRecord::Base.configurations["otherdb_#{RAILS_ENV}"])
set_table_name "change"
end
This way I can use the Change model for all existing records…
