= Rails Money

Note! This is NOT compatible with the 'money' gem!

A handler for storing money in ActiveRecord objects as integers (as cents), but dealing

with them as Money Objects.

Note: Dividing a money object will return an array of Money objects. This ensures cents 

do not go missing.

For example:

  >> money = Money.new(10.00)

  => # 

  >> money / 3

  => [#, #, #]

All other operations (+, -, *, and Comparable stuff) will work without any surprises or magic. 

== Installation

./script/plugin install svn://svn.nullcreations.net/plugins/rails_money

== Usage

Create your tables with fields named FIELDNAME_in_cents and you will be able to access them as

FIELDNAME. ActiveRecord will return Money objects instead of Fixnums.

  add_column :products, :price_in_cents, :integer

 

  product = Product.find_first

  product.price = 100.00

  product.price >> #

Creating a Money can be done from a Fixnum (dollars) or a Float (dollars.cents). To create a money

object from just cents, do Money.create_from_cents(100)
