I know that we shouldn't make database calls in the Initializer, but how do we avoid this when a class 'bootstraps' itself when it is required, e.g.
class Status < ActiveRecord::Base # Add constants representing the various status SUBMITTED = self.find(...) APPROVED = self.find(...) DENIED = self.find(...) end I have, in my initialization block, a line which causes some model classes to be 'required', e.g. config.active_record.observers = :audit_observer # 'requires' observed classes My problem is that the initialization block runs while executing migrations, and therefore fails on a migration from version 0, because the Status table doesn't yet exist. I've tried config.after_initialize, with no luck. Is there some other way to do initialization only after the migrations have run? Thanks.
