h1. HAS_STATUS

_The missing status/enum field helpers for ActiveRecord._

h2. Installation

sudo gem install grimen-has_status


h2. Usage

In your model:

class Post < ActiveRecord:Base

  

  has_status :publish_status, [:draft, :published, :some_status], :default => :published

  

  has_status :priority, [:important, :no_priority], :labels => {:important => 'Important!', :no_priority => I18n.t('statuses.priority.low')}

  

end


...gives:


  @post.draft? # => @post == :draft, @post == 'draft'

  @post.draft! # => @post = :draft

  

  @post.published? # => @post == :published, @post == 'published'

  @post.published! # => @post = :published

  

  @post.has_publish_status?(:hello) # => @post == :hello, @post == 'hello'

  @post.set_publish_status!(:hello) # => @post = :hello

  

  @post = :draft

  @post.next_publish_status! # => @post = :published

  @post = :draft

  @post.previous_publish_status! # => @post = :some_status

  

  @post.reset_published_status! # = @post = :published

  

  @post.publish_statuses_for_select # = [['Important!', 'important], ...]

  

  Post::PUBLISH_STATUSES # => [:draft, :published, :some_status]

  Post::DEFAULT_PUBLISH_STATUS # => :published



h2. More...?

Things that passed my mind:

* Implement named scopes, or finder methods.

* Fix the :default option to work on initialize, now disabled.
