I'm trying to create a model that uses a boolean type, supported by mysql engine. My generate is like so:
./script/generate model Product name:string vendor_id:integer in_stock:boolean However, when I try to play with the console and save products to the database, only products defined with in_stock = true or in_stock = 1 are successfully saved. I can't seem to save items with a false value. Here's what I mean: >> p = Product.new(:name => "VCR", :vendor_id => 1, :in_stock => true) => #<Product id:nil, name: "VCR", vendor_id: 1, in_stock: true, created_at....> >> p.save => true This also works with :in_use => 1 vHowever, all these fail: >> p = Product.new(:name => "VCR", :vendor_id => 1, :in_stock => false) >> p.save => false >> p = Product.new(:name => "VCR", :vendor_id => 1, :in_stock => 0) >> p.save => false >> p = Product.new(:name => "VCR", :vendor_id => 1, :in_stock => nil)>> p.save => false The migration lists the type as t.boolean :in_use, and the database shows the column type as tinyint(1). What am I doing wrong?
