Ruby Question
Where can I find a specific documentation for a Mongoid class?
I am new to Mongoid and I want to learn more about it. Today I came across
Mongoid::TimestampsIt looks interesting to me so I wanted to know more about it, but could not find any more documentation on
Mongoid::TimestampsSeems like Mongoid has a very limited documentation.
Answer
You can read its RubyDoc to find more about Mongoid::Timestamps. It's nothing special, but in a nutshell:
Including
Mongoid::Timestampsin your Ruby model classes would tell MongoDB to save timestamps of when a document was created or updated. This creates two new attributes in your model:
- created_at
- updated_at
You use it like this:
class User
include Mongoid::Document
include Mongoid::Timestamps
# Other stuff...
end
