update_hash.delete?

[jwargo]

Looking at one of the examples for Update, the source adapter has the following code:

obj_id = update_hash['id']
update_hash.delete('id')  
RestClient.put("#{@base}/#{obj_id}",:product => update_hash)

What’s the point of the update_hash.delete(‘id’)? What does that affect?

As I can see the point is that they don't have a update-method. So they first delete the existing record and then create a new one. If the http-code is different then 200, they raise an exception. I hope this was your question.

Nope

It is just removing the ID attribute before submitting the update to the backend REST service

Hello,

The reason this sample code deletes the 'id' is because it is an additional attribute not required by this particular web service.
