How to show sql result on server console

问题

In Rails v2.3 , Ruby 1.8, if I run a sql statement with following code in my model class:

ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute("select count(*) from cars;")

How can I show the query result in server console?

I tried :

rslt = ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute("select count(*) from cars;")
p rslt

but it only returns me "MySQL result object" on the server console, not the exact result.

回答1:

There are couple ways to get mysql "answer" from your query. you can call each and it will iterate over each row (just one row - count in your case). take a look at mysql gem docs to see other available methods such as each_hash and all_hashes.

rslt = ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute("select count(*) from cars;")
rslt.each {|mysql_result| puts mysql_result}

回答2:

You can just use the to_a method on your result, like so:

result = connection.execute(sql)
result.to_a

This will return (and show if in console) what you're looking for.

It depends on the environment you are using currently. For development the default logger level is debug, for production it's info level. You can use it this way:

class HomeController < ActionController::Base
  def index
    rslt = ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute("select count(*) from cars;")
    logger.info "#{rslt}"
  end
end
