- Class:
ActiveRecord::Base
delete(id)public
Delete an object (or multiple objects) where the id given matches the primary_key. A SQL DELETE command is executed on the database which means that no callbacks are fired off running this. This is an efficient method of deleting records that don’t need cleaning up after or other actions to be taken.
Objects are not instantiated with this method.
Options
id Can be either an Integer or an Array of Integers
Examples
# Delete a single object Todo.delete(1) # Delete multiple objects todos = [1,2,3] Todo.delete(todos)
