This skill guides the implementation of domain logic in the model layer of a Rails application using best practices.
This skill guides the implementation of domain logic in the model layer of a Rails application using best practices.
Use when creating a new Rails model or extending an existing Rails model.
Always start with the workflow checklist. Copy the appropriate checklist and track progress through each phase:
| Task | Workflow |
|---|---|
| Create new model | New Model Workflow |
| Extending an existing model | Model Extension Workflow |
The workflow includes validation loops at each phase. Do not skip validation steps.
Consult these when implementing phases of the workflow:
| Document | Use When |
|---|---|
| Writing effective migrations | Explains how to write safe and performant migrations. Reference this document when writing a database schema migration. |
| Organizing domain logic | Explains how to effectively organize domain logic in the model layer. Reference this document when analyzing or planning the implementation. |
| Tying models together via associations | Explains how to use associations to effectively relate models to one another. Reference this document when implementing model associations. |
| Ensuring data quality | Explains best practices for model validations. Reference this document when implementing model layer data validations. |
| Using callbacks | Explains the proper use of callbacks. Reference this document when implementing business logic that should be performed as part of the model lifecycle. |
| Writing model specs | Explains best practices for writing model specs. Reference this document when implementing specs to cover model behavior. |
