How to save multiple records in one query with callbacks

Question

I have an array of new objects of active records I want to save them all in one query and I also want to call before_create callback. I used activerecored-import gem and also tried with insert method these both methods skip the callbacks what is best way to do that?

Could you please write any code sample here. – Dinesh Saini Apr 22 '15 at 06:57 — Dinesh Saini, Apr 22 '15 at 06:57

I would suggest that you read the activerecord-import wiki there are lost of interesting facts on how to use that gem there.

here is a key: you have to require 'activerecord-import'

books = []
10.times do |i| 
  books << Book.new(:name => "book #{i}")
end
Book.import books

this is how you save 10 records with 1 call

Happy coding
