Sean Griffin 1bdc395d95 Make the second argument to attribute optional
While working on updating Paper Trail for 5.1 compatibility, I noticed
that I was required to pass a second argument to `attribute`. I didn't
intend for this to be the case, as `attribute :foo` is totally
reasonable shorthand for "I want `attr_accessor :foo`, but also have it
work with things like `.attributes` and `ActiveRecord::Dirty`"

module ClassMethods
# Defines an attribute with a type on this model. It will override the
# type of existing attributes if needed. This allows control over how
# values are converted to and from SQL when assigned to a model. It also
# changes the behavior of values passed to
# {ActiveRecord::Base.where}[rdoc-ref:QueryMethods#where]. This will let you use
# your domain objects across much of Active Record, without having to
# rely on implementation details or monkey patching.
#
# +name+ The name of the methods to define attribute methods for, and the
# column which this will persist to.
#
# +cast_type+ A symbol such as +:string+ or +:integer+, or a type object
# to be used for this attribute. See the examples below for more
# information about providing custom type objects.
#
# ==== Options
#
# The following options are accepted:
#
# +default+ The default value to use when no value is provided. If this option
# is not passed, the previous default value (if any) will be used.
# Otherwise, the default will be +nil+.
#
# +array+ (PostgreSQL only) specifies that the type should be an array (see the
# examples below).
#
# +range+ (PostgreSQL only) specifies that the type should be a range (see the
# examples below).
#
# ==== Examples
#
# The type detected by Active Record can be overridden.
#
# # db/schema.rb
# create_table :store_listings, force: true do |t|
# t.decimal :price_in_cents
# end
#
# # app/models/store_listing.rb
# class StoreListing < ActiveRecord::Base
# end
#
# store_listing = StoreListing.new(price_in_cents: '10.1')
#
# # before
# store_listing.price_in_cents # => BigDecimal.new(10.1)
#
# class StoreListing < ActiveRecord::Base
# attribute :price_in_cents, :integer
# end
#
# # after
# store_listing.price_in_cents # => 10
#
# A default can also be provided.
#
# # db/schema.rb
# create_table :store_listings, force: true do |t|
# t.string :my_string, default: "original default"
# end
#
# StoreListing.new.my_string # => "original default"
#
# # app/models/store_listing.rb
# class StoreListing < ActiveRecord::Base
# attribute :my_string, :string, default: "new default"
# end
#
# StoreListing.new.my_string # => "new default"
#
# class Product < ActiveRecord::Base
# attribute :my_default_proc, :datetime, default: -> { Time.now }
# end
#
# Product.new.my_default_proc # => 2015-05-30 11:04:48 -0600
# sleep 1
# Product.new.my_default_proc # => 2015-05-30 11:04:49 -0600
#
# \Attributes do not need to be backed by a database column.
#
# # app/models/my_model.rb
# class MyModel < ActiveRecord::Base
# attribute :my_string, :string
# attribute :my_int_array, :integer, array: true
# attribute :my_float_range, :float, range: true
# end
#
# model = MyModel.new(
# my_string: "string",
# my_int_array: ["1", "2", "3"],
# my_float_range: "[1,3.5]",
# )
# model.attributes
# # =>
# {
# my_string: "string",
# my_int_array: [1, 2, 3],
# my_float_range: 1.0..3.5
# }
#
# ==== Creating Custom Types
#
# Users may also define their own custom types, as long as they respond
# to the methods defined on the value type. The method +deserialize+ or
# +cast+ will be called on your type object, with raw input from the
# database or from your controllers. See ActiveModel::Type::Value for the
# expected API. It is recommended that your type objects inherit from an
# existing type, or from ActiveRecord::Type::Value
#
# class MoneyType < ActiveRecord::Type::Integer
# def cast(value)
# if !value.kind_of?(Numeric) && value.include?('$')
# price_in_dollars = value.gsub(/\$/, '').to_f
# super(price_in_dollars * 100)
# else
# super
# end
# end
# end
#
# # config/initializers/types.rb
# ActiveRecord::Type.register(:money, MoneyType)
#
# # app/models/store_listing.rb
# class StoreListing < ActiveRecord::Base
# attribute :price_in_cents, :money
# end
#
# store_listing = StoreListing.new(price_in_cents: '$10.00')
# store_listing.price_in_cents # => 1000
#
# For more details on creating custom types, see the documentation for
# ActiveModel::Type::Value. For more details on registering your types
# to be referenced by a symbol, see ActiveRecord::Type.register. You can
# also pass a type object directly, in place of a symbol.
#
# ==== \Querying
#
# When {ActiveRecord::Base.where}[rdoc-ref:QueryMethods#where] is called, it will
# use the type defined by the model class to convert the value to SQL,
# calling +serialize+ on your type object. For example:
#
# class Money < Struct.new(:amount, :currency)
# end
#
# class MoneyType < Type::Value
# def initialize(currency_converter:)
# @currency_converter = currency_converter
# end
#
# # value will be the result of +deserialize+ or
# # +cast+. Assumed to be an instance of +Money+ in
# # this case.
# def serialize(value)
# value_in_bitcoins = @currency_converter.convert_to_bitcoins(value)
# value_in_bitcoins.amount
# end
# end
#
# # config/initializers/types.rb
# ActiveRecord::Type.register(:money, MoneyType)
#
# # app/models/product.rb
# class Product < ActiveRecord::Base
# currency_converter = ConversionRatesFromTheInternet.new
# attribute :price_in_bitcoins, :money, currency_converter: currency_converter
# end
#
# Product.where(price_in_bitcoins: Money.new(5, "USD"))
# # => SELECT * FROM products WHERE price_in_bitcoins = 0.02230
#
# Product.where(price_in_bitcoins: Money.new(5, "GBP"))
# # => SELECT * FROM products WHERE price_in_bitcoins = 0.03412
#
# ==== Dirty Tracking
#
# The type of an attribute is given the opportunity to change how dirty
# tracking is performed. The methods +changed?+ and +changed_in_place?+
# will be called from ActiveModel::Dirty. See the documentation for those
# methods in ActiveModel::Type::Value for more details.

# This is the low level API which sits beneath +attribute+. It only
# accepts type objects, and will do its work immediately instead of
# waiting for the schema to load. Automatic schema detection and
# ClassMethods#attribute both call this under the hood. While this method
# is provided so it can be used by plugin authors, application code
# should probably use ClassMethods#attribute.
#
# +name+ The name of the attribute being defined. Expected to be a +String+.
#
# +cast_type+ The type object to use for this attribute.
#
# +default+ The default value to use when no value is provided. If this option
# is not passed, the previous default value (if any) will be used.
# Otherwise, the default will be +nil+. A proc can also be passed, and
# will be called once each time a new value is needed.
#
# +user_provided_default+ Whether the default value should be cast using
# +cast+ or +deserialize+.
