I'm trying to write a migration to update a boolean field where the field will mean the exact opposite of what it means currently. Therefore I need to toggle every record to update the records where this field is true
to false
and vice-versa.
Example:
class ChangePostsVisibleToArchived < ActiveRecord::Migration[6.1]
def change
rename_column :posts, :visible, :archived
# Toggle all tracked topics
# What I DON'T want to do:
Post.all.each { |post| post.toggle! :archived }
end
end
The way I described above will generate one SQL command per Post record. Is there a way I can toggle all records within a single SQL command using rails ActiveRecord syntax?
Post.update_all "archived = NOT archived"
