ActiveLog

You need ActiveLog when you want to automagically create changelog of all activerecord changes in your rails app, asynchronously. It will keep track of all changes on attributes and as a bonus it can also record which user (session's current_user) made the change.

Example

add "records_active_log" to all models which needs to be logged

class User < ActiveRecord::Base

  records_active_log

end

You can access logs either by user or all...

    >>u = User.first
    >>u.active_logs
    => [...]

    or

    >> ActiveLog.all

If you want to log along with information of currently logged in user then you should consider adding a before filter to application controller which sets ActiveLog.current = current_user
