- What's this?
clone()
public
Returns a clone of the resource that hasn’t been assigned an id yet and is treated as a new resource.
ryan = Person.find(1) not_ryan = ryan.clone not_ryan.new? # => true
Any active resource member attributes will NOT be cloned, though all other attributes are. This is to prevent the conflict between any prefix_options that refer to the original parent resource and the newly cloned parent resource that does not exist.
ryan = Person.find(1) ryan.address = StreetAddress.find(1, :person_id => ryan.id) ryan.hash = {:not => "an ARes instance"} not_ryan = ryan.clone not_ryan.new? # => true not_ryan.address # => NoMethodError not_ryan.hash # => {:not => "an ARes instance"}
