class ActiveStorage::Attachment

Parent:
ActiveRecord::Base

Attachments associate records with blobs. Usually that's a one record-many blobs relationship, but it is possible to associate many different records with the same blob. A foreign-key constraint on the attachments table prevents blobs from being purged if they’re still attached to any records.

Public Instance Methods

# File activestorage/app/models/active_storage/attachment.rb, line 26
