soft-delete

I am using Spring and Hibernate for my application. I am only allowing logical delete in my application where I need to set the field isActive=false. Instead of repeating the same field in all the entities, I created a Base Class with the property and getter-setter for 'isActive'. So, during delete, I invoke the update() method and set the isActive to false. I am not able to get this working. If any one has any idea, please let me know. Base Entity public abstract class BaseEntity<TId extends Serializable> implements IEntity<TId> { @Basic @Column(name = "IsActive") protected boolean isActive;

I'm developing a Laravel web app using Laravel 5.2. My question is very simple... How do I listen to a forceDelete event in order to forceDelete model relations? I've been looking around the web and S.O. for a few but all the questions/answers I've found where releted to the delete method, and also in the API documentation I haven't found very much... In my case I have a Registry model and a RegistryDetail model Registry table |id|name|surname|.... RegistryDetail table |id|id_registry|.... I've created for both this boot function: protected static function boot() { parent::boot(); static:

In a relational database it seems quite common to use soft-deletes. My pondering comes to if it is really necessary to cascade these deletes? The reason I wonder is that it seems to me that cascading a soft delete wouldn't add any additional information. I.e. lets say we have a table MainContract and a table ServiceContract where the relation is one-to-many. Say we soft-delete the MainContract but ignore doing so to lets say three ServiceContracts that all belong to this MainContract. If we query the DB for ServiceContracts that are not deleted, we could easily check if the MainContract owning

I have this invoices table that which has the following structure id | name | amount | deleted_at 2 iMac 1500 | NULL and a payments table with the following structure id | invoice_id | amount | deleted_at 2 2 1000 | NULL Invoice Model class Invoice extends Model { use SoftDeletes; } here's the code to delete the invoice public function cance(Request $request,$id) { $record = Invoice::findOrFail($id); $record->delete(); return response()->json([ 'success' => 'OK', ]); } Payments model class Payment extends Model { use SoftDeletes; } The softDelete on Invoice table works perfectly but its

I'd like to keep data when we delete instead of soft-delete (which uses is_deleted field), I'd like to move the data to another table (for deleted rows) https://stackoverflow.com/a/26125927/433570 I don't know what is the name of the strategy either. called archiving? two-table delete? To make this work, I need to be able to do for a given object(which will be deleted), find all other objects that has foreign key or one-to-one key to the object. (this can be done via https://stackoverflow.com/a/2315053/433570 , actually harder than that, that code isn't sufficient) insert a new object and have
