I understand that bang methods in the classic Ruby sense are supposed to
alter the current instance, but getting errors like:
NoMethodError: undefined method `where!' for #<Class:0x007ff1522d3110>
and
NoMethodError: undefined method `includes!' for #<Class:0x007ff1522d3110>
when calling the bang methods from QueryMethods on a model class are really
not helpful.
It's understandable that you don't want to pass a model class into a method
that expects a relation that it can act upon and change with a bang query
method and have it successfully create a new relation and call some method
on it that is never again seen, hence the error. I also understand wanting
to avoid any more checking/raising code than necessary in ActiveRecord both
for maintainability, clarity, and maybe efficiency- but just look at this:
2.0.0p247 :001 > MyModel.to_s
=> "MyModel"
2.0.0p247 :002 > MyModel.new.to_s
=> "#< MyModel:0x007fc92aa017e8>"
2.0.0p247 :003 > MyModel.where({})
=> ...
2.0.0p247 :003 > MyModel.where!({})
NoMethodError: undefined method `where!' for #<Class:0x007fc92a95a240>
Thanks!
