# ActsAsLearnable

ActsAsLearnable is a Ruby gem for ActiveRecord models. It provides a simple way to create flashcards in your app. It automatically schedules flashcards for review depending on recall quality (1 to 5). You can easily create a Spaced Repetition System (SRS) using this gem. ActsAsLearnable uses SuperMemo 2 algorithm.

Consider using [repetition](https://github.com/dankimio/repetition), a rewrite of this gem with many improvements.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'acts_as_learnable'
```

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install acts_as_learnable

Create and run migrations (will add flashcard fields if table already exists):

$ rails generate flashcard MODEL
$ rake db:migrate

## Usage

Within your model call `acts_as_learnable` method:

```ruby
class Flashcard < ActiveRecord::Base
acts_as_learnable
end
```

It will automatically extend your class with all necessary methods.

Then you can review flashcards:

```ruby
card = Flashcard.create
card.review(4) # => Recall quality from 1 (bad) to 5 (perfect)
card.due_today? # => false
card.due # => 2015-03-11
card.studied_at # => 2015-03-10
card.interval # => 1
card.repetitions # => 1
```
