What is purpose of around_create callback in Rails Model?

Question

when is around_create callback code executed, in what situations we should use it?

Answer 1

Simpler and neat explanation about around callback I found, is given below

The around_* callback is called around the action and inside the before_* and after_* actions. For example:

class User
  def before_save
    puts 'before save'
  end

  def after_save
    puts 'after_save'
  end

  def around_save
    puts 'in around save'
    yield # User saved
    puts 'out around save'
  end
end

User.save
  before save
  in around save
  out around save
  after_save
=> true
