before_class_method :create not called in some cases

Reported by Guillaume Maury (giom) | May 2nd, 2008 @ 11:53 AM

before_class_method :create, :method

will call the method when the object is created with Model.create but won't call the method if one does Model.new.save

Of course one can do something like

but maybe it would be good to have a way to explicitly do something like before_create or before_update like in active record

    Right. Model.create isn't called. update vs create is determined at the Repository level and the methods are called on the Adapter.

    For now I'm thinking your work-around is the way I'd do it... a little less elegant maybe, but transparent. I like it.

    I'm not against discussing some tweaks to it, but I'd be concerned about a consistent solution without adding a dozen hook methods unnecessarily.

    Or maybe a dm-more plugin...

    Just in the interest of giving credit to whom it belongs, the pastie with the workaround is afrench pastie :)

    I'm maybe going to implement a dm-more plugin for this once dm 0.9 is released because it would be quite helpful when converting code for activerecord to datamapper...
