  We have to think very carefully about how we should do this.

  Do we do a separate table for drafts, or should we add a column to the existing tables?

  If we have a separate table, should we store the ID of the draft in the news/articles table, or the ID of the article/news in the drafts table.

  Separate table for drafts.

  With ActiveRecord associations we get the following.

  
  class Draft < ActiveRecord::Base
    belongs_to :news
    belongs_to :articles
  end
  
  class News < ActiveRecord::Base
    has_one :draft
  end
  
  class Article < ActiveRecord::Base
    has_one :draft
  end
  

  And that means that the drafts table contains the foreign keys.

  I think that the problem with that is that it gets very expensive on the database because of the checks to see if an article as a draft. Also if one article only has one draft, why do it this way (especially as it will require separate columns for news and article IDs, which is questionable database design, I think.)

  • State changed from “new” to “open”
  • Title changed from “Drafting system” to “Revision Control”

  Update:

  • Acts_As_Versioned seems to have serious problems with Rails 2.x
  • Riff Rails hasn't been updated for a very long time
  • We cannot seem to find good ruby ports of patch and diff
