How to initialize an ActiveRecord with values in Rails?

Question

In plain java I\'d use:

public User(String name, String email) {
  this.name = name;
  this.email = f(email);
  this.admin = false;
}

Answer 1

This will work in rails 4.

def initialize(params)
    super
    params[:name] = params[:name] + "xyz" 
    write_attribute(:name, params[:name]) 
    write_attribute(:some_other_field, "stuff")
    write_attribute(:email, params[:email])
    write_attribute(:admin, false)
end
