Log every SQL query to database in Rails

Question

I want to save to a log file some SQL query rails performs, (namely the CREATE, UPDATE and DELETE ones) therefore I need to intercept all queries and then filter them maybe

If you are using mysql I would look into mysqlbinlog . It is going to track everything that potentially updates data. you can grep out whatever you need from that log easily.
