class ActiveSupport::Subscriber

Parent:
Object

ActiveSupport::Subscriber is an object set to consume ActiveSupport::Notifications. The subscriber dispatches notifications to a registered object based on its given namespace.

An example would be an Active Record subscriber responsible for collecting statistics about queries:

module ActiveRecord
  class StatsSubscriber < ActiveSupport::Subscriber
    attach_to :active_record

    def sql(event)
      Statsd.timing("sql.#{event.payload[:name]}", event.duration)
    end
  end
end

After configured, whenever a “sql.active_record” notification is published, it will properly dispatch the event (ActiveSupport::Notifications::Event) to the sql method.

We can detach a subscriber as well:

ActiveRecord::StatsSubscriber.detach_from(:active_record)

Public Class Methods

attach_to(namespace, subscriber = new, notifier = ActiveSupport::Notifications, inherit_all: false) Show source
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/subscriber.rb, line 33
def attach_to(namespace, subscriber = new, notifier = ActiveSupport::Notifications, inherit_all: false)
  @namespace  = namespace
  @subscriber = subscriber
  @notifier   = notifier
  @inherit_all = inherit_all

  subscribers << subscriber

  # Add event subscribers for all existing methods on the class.
  fetch_public_methods(subscriber, inherit_all).each do |event|
    add_event_subscriber(event)
  end
end

Attach the subscriber to a namespace.

detach_from(namespace, notifier = ActiveSupport::Notifications) Show source
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/subscriber.rb, line 48
def detach_from(namespace, notifier = ActiveSupport::Notifications)
  @namespace  = namespace
  @subscriber = find_attached_subscriber
  @notifier   = notifier

  return unless subscriber

  subscribers.delete(subscriber)

  # Remove event subscribers of all existing methods on the class.
  fetch_public_methods(subscriber, true).each do |event|
    remove_event_subscriber(event)
  end

  # Reset notifier so that event subscribers will not add for new methods added to the class.
  @notifier = nil
end

Detach the subscriber from a namespace.

method_added(event) Show source
# File activesupport/lib/active_support/subscriber.rb, line 67
def method_added(event)
  # Only public methods are added as subscribers, and only if a notifier
  # has been set up. This means that subscribers will only be set up for
  # classes that call #attach_to.
  if public_method_defined?(event) && notifier
    add_event_subscriber(event)
  end
end

Adds event subscribers for all new methods added to the class.

# File activesupport/lib/active_support/subscriber.rb, line 128

end
