# Active Record Deprecated Finders This gem is a dependency of Rails 4.0 to provide deprecated finder functionality. It will be removed as a dependency in Rails 4.1, but users can manually include it in their Gemfile and it will continue to be maintained until Rails 5. ```ruby gem 'activerecord-deprecated_finders', require: 'active_record/deprecated_finders' ``` This gem is used to extract and deprecate old-style finder option hashes in Active Record: ```ruby Post.find(:all, conditions: { published_on: 2.weeks.ago }, limit: 5) ``` as well as the following dynamic finders: * `find_all_by_...` * `find_last_by_...` * `scoped_by_...` * `find_or_initialize_by_...` * `find_or_create_by_...` Note that `find(primary_key)`, `find_by...`, and `find_by...!` are not deprecated. To avoid reliance on this gem, you'll need to migrate your finder usage. To migrate dynamic finders to Rails 4.1+: * `find_all_by_...` should become `where(...)`. * `find_last_by_...` should become `where(...).last`. * `scoped_by_...` should become `where(...)`. * `find_or_initialize_by_...` should become `find_or_initialize_by(...)`. * `find_or_create_by_...` should become `find_or_create_by(...)`. To migrate old-style finder option hashes and for additional information, please refer to: * [ActiveRecord::FinderMethods][findermethods], [ActiveRecord::Relation][relation], and [ActiveRecord::QueryMethods][querymethods] docs. * Rails Guide: Upgrading Ruby on Rails ([stable][stableguide] / [edge][edgeguide]).
