# Jifty::Action::Record::Delete(3pm)

Automagic delete action

## NAME

Jifty::Action::Record::Delete - Automagic delete action

## DESCRIPTION

This class is used as the base class for Jifty::Actions that are merely deleting Jifty::Record objects.  To use it, subclass it and override the `"record_class"` method to return the name of the Jifty::Record subclass that this action should delete.

## METHODS

### arguments

Overrides the "arguments" in Jifty::Action::Record method to specify that all of the primary keys **must** have values when submitted; that is, they are constructors.  No other arguments are required.

### take\_action

Overrides the virtual `"take_action"` method on Jifty::Action to delete the row from the database.

### report\_success

Sets the "message" in Jifty::Result to default success message, "Deleted". Override this if you want to report some other more user-friendly result.
