Getter Methods

attribute_names

Returns an Array of Strings containing the attributes on your All Futures model instance, as defined in your model class when you use the attribute method.

attribute_names is also available as a class method.

attributes

Returns a Hash of the attributes on your All Futures model instance, as defined in your model class when you use the attribute method. You can pass this Hash to the new or create method of an Active Record model class.

The attributes Hash will not contain id, which is a property.

destroyed?

Returns true or false, depending on whether the current instance has been destroyed.

id

id is a String that uniquely identifies an All Futures class instance. When combined with the name of your All Futures class, it is mapped directly to a Redis key. For example, if you have a DraftPost class with an id of bdef228c-248c-4a50-abf0-6942353962bf, your instance is stored in Redis as DraftPost:bdef228c-248c-4a50-abf0-6942353962bf.

new_record?

Returns true if the current instance has not yet been saved to Redis.

persisted?

Returns true if the current instance is not a new_record? and has not been destroyed?.

previously_new_record?

Returns true if the current instance was a new_record? before it was saved to Redis. A record retrieved with find cannot have been "previously new".
