# BlackBox

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/gmcgibbon/black_box.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/gmcgibbon/black_box)

Static wrappers for instantiated classes.

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

```ruby
gem 'black_box'
```

And then execute:

$ bundle install

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install black_box

## Usage

1. Make a box class that extends from `BlockBox::Base` (or includes `BlackBox::Concern`).
2. Specify a subject class with `.subject`.
3. Define initialization parameters with `.accept`.
4. Define methods to delegate with `.expose`.
5. Set initialization parameters with `.configure`.

```ruby
# Require your subject
require 'api_object'

# Make your black box
class Api < BlackBox::Base

subject ApiObject

accept :token, :ssl

expose :find

end

# Configure your black box
Api.configure do |api|
api.token = 'my_api_token'
api.ssl = true
end

# Use your black box
Api.find(12)
```

## Development

After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
