quick track changes/history

[Mike Henke]

Is there a quick way, I could track changes to records using "Object
Callbacks"?

I was thinking of copying the current record before saving and setting
it as a "soft delete", then updating the current record with the
change. I could use the beforeSave().

Anyone think of any problems with this or a better way?

Anyone use this plugin?

I wrote it ages ago. It probably needs an update but been too busy as
the way it works isn't ideal.

Maybe I can fix it up, what isn't ideal the way it works?

[Andy Bellenie]

I wrote it before I had any idea what I was doing with Wheels. I'm not
sure exactly what I'd do to improve it right now but if you need it
quickly I'll sort it out over the next couple of days.

Sure that sounds great. Is the code on github so I can help?

Mike, I want to completely rewrite that. It's awful. Shouldn't take
very long but needs doing.

[Mike Henke]

I wouldn't worry to much :-) It seems to work fine. I'll work on
beforeUpdate() call to copy the current record and stash it somewhere
for auditing Ideally I should probably have a separate history table
but might try to keep it all in one table for simplicity.
