Rails 3 app model how ensure only one boolean field set to true at a time

Question

I have a Logo model that has fields of name:string, default:boolean. I want the true value to be unique, so that only one item in the database can be set to true at once. How do

Answer 1

class Model < ApplicationRecord
  before_save :ensure_single_default, if: :is_default?

  private

  def ensure_single_default
    self.class.update_all(is_default: false)
  end
end

You don't need to check the id because this callback happens before the truthy one is saved.
