Short description HyperactiveResource extends ActiveResource (from Ruby on Rails) to provide a REST client library that behaves like ActiveRecord
Description HyperactiveResource Many have said that ActiveResource is not really "complete". On the surface, this means that some features that are documented aren't implemented. Digging a little deeper, we find that some features that should exist don't. Arguably, a "complete" ActiveResource would behave like ActiveRecord or, as the rdoc for ActiveResource states "very similarly to Active Record". Hyperactive Resource is MDL's extension to ActiveResource::Base written to support our Patient Registry and goes a long way towards the goal of an ActiveResource that behaves like ActiveRecord. Features * Client side validations * Hooks for before_validate, before_save * Dynamic finders: find_by_X * save! * Awareness of associations between resources: belongs_to, has_many, has_one & columns ** Patient.new.name returns nil instead of MethodMissing ** Patient.new.races returns [] instead of MethodMissing ** pat = Patient.new; pat.gender_id = 1; pat.gender #Will return find the gender obj * Resources can be associated with records * Records can be associated with resources * ActiveRecord-like attributes= (updates rather than replaces) * ActiveRecord-like #load that doesn't #dup attributes (stores direct reference) * Supports saving resources that :include other resources via: ** Nested resource saving (creating a patient will create their associated addresses) ** Mapping associations ([:gender].id will serialize as :gender_id) Example 1. Install the plugin via: cd path/to/rails_root/vendor/plugins git clone git://github.com/lukegalea/hyperactiveresource.git 2. Create a HyperactiveResource where you would normally use ActiveResource and define the meta-data/associations that drive the dynamic magic: class Address < HyperactiveResource self.columns = [ :street_address, :city, :zipcode, :home_phone_number ] self.belong_tos = [ :country, :state ] self.has_manys = [ :people ] end 3. Enjoy the magic address = Address.new address.country # nil instead of method_missing address.country_id = 5 address.country #Returns Country.find(5) etc..
