Getting Rid Of Transactions For The Poor Man

A quick post for today.

Want to get rid of transactions from ActiveRecord for something? Here's a cheap way to do it.

	# Force the loading of AR stuff
	ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute('SELECT 1')

	# Remove transactions from MySQL adapter
	ActiveRecord::ConnectionAdapters::MysqlAdapter.class_eval do
	def begin_db_transaction
	end

	def commit_db_transaction
	end
	end

It only works for MySQL obviously, but you can roll your own if you are on postgres. I'll make it a bit less crappy and make it a gem or something.
