Actable model is saved twice

[allenwq]

actable.save will trigger two update queries and the after_save callback is called twice.

I think this is because of the bi-directional auto_save: true on actings as and actable model.

We need both autosaves AFAICS. Happy to remove one if there's an alternative though! :)

[allenwq]

not asking to remove one, but the issue is after_save callbacks are called twice, and duplicated queries are generated, isn't that an issue with the gem ?

[manuelmeurer]

Yeah sure, it might be. If you know how to fix it, please submit a PR!

[allenwq]

@manuelmeurer We have a workaround that uses after_save instead of autosave and that fixed the issue on our project, not sure if you are interested in the way we are doing.

however, I think we should open the issue until someone submits a PR, what you think ? 😄

[manuelmeurer]

Can you post the code of your workaround? I'm happy to try it out to see if it fixes the problem! 😄

[allenwq]

@manuelmeurer Thanks ! 😄

Here's the commit: Coursemology@ca24c95

We have tested and used in our production product ( 80+ tables/models ) and turns out to be pretty stable.

[manuelmeurer]

Could you test if this is still a problem with the current gem version (2.2.0)?
I just tried it out on the console and the after_save callbacks on the supermodel and submodel were only called once each.

[allenwq]

@manuelmeurer Can let me know which rails version that you were testing on ?

[manuelmeurer]

4.2.8

[allenwq]

Let you know first @manuelmeurer, it still happens to us with 2.2.1 in rails 4.2.8.

I will see if can get an example app to reproduce this, but that will take some time...
