FrozenError when calling `.new` on STI model with state_machine in Rails 6.1 #363

Open kreintjes opened 2 years ago

kreintjes commented 2 years ago

Calling .new on an ActiveRecord Single Table Inheritance model with a state_machine defined results in a "FrozenError: can't modify frozen Hash" since Rails 6.1.

Example, suppose we have the following model:

class Car < ApplicationRecord
  state_machine do
  end
end

which has a state and type column (the latter enabling STI) and some subclasses extending from Car. We would expect Car.new to return a new Car instance, but instead it crashes with "FrozenError: can't modify frozen Hash:".

Rails version: 6.1.4.1 Ruby version: 2.7.3 State machine version: 1.2.0

This did work in Rails 6.0 and before.

I'm also hitting the "can't modify Frozen Hash" on Rails 6.1.4.4.

My annotate gem actually triggered the error and adding some tracing to the call links it back to state_machine. We also did not have this issue until we updated rails.

Same here from Rails 6.0.5 to 6.1.6. Any advice here?

Seeing the same thing here. We make use of column_defaults and you can see that as of Rails 6.1, it was changed to freeze the returned Hash:

https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/c9c293e19464c9ce37316f2d917ac123d7b654e6

A number of Hashes were frozen in this commit. Still not sure of a workaround yet but at least we know where it came from and maybe even why.

FYI, since this gem hasn't been updated in 10 years, we updated to the state_machines gem (notice the plural "s" there). Specifically, we used the ActiveRecord integration gem called state_machines-activerecord.

What's super nice is that it's a drop-in replacement.

We're still conducting testing but it seems to fix our issue on Rails 6.1.

Just tried this. Swapped in state_machines-activerecord. All my tests that were failing due to this issue are now passing.
