# rspec_create_model
A rspec matcher for Rail's ActiveRecord, to check the type of models created from actions.
## Installation
Add the gem to your Gemfile
```ruby
gem 'rspec_create_model'
```
## Example usage
Given the following records:
```ruby
class Author < ActiveRecord::Base
attribute :name, type: :String
has_many :articles, dependent: :destroy
after_create :create_empty_book
def create_empty_book
Book.create!(author_id: id, title: "First Empty Book")
end
end
class Book < ActiveRecord::Base
belongs_to :author, optional: false
attribute :title, type: :String
end
```
You can match created records like this:
```ruby
expect { Author.create!(name: "Some author name") }.to create_model(Author)
expect { Author.create!(name: "Some author name") }
.to create_model(Author)
.and create_model(Book)
```
When the matcher is called, 2 instace variable get set: **@created_record** and **@created_records**
these variables includes the newly created records. You can also use them if you want, like this:
```ruby
expect { Author.create!(name: "Some author name") }.to create_model(Author)
expect(@created_record).to be_a(Author)
expect(@created_records).to all(be_a(Author))
```
including the created records, you also could write tests on their content.
Remember to checkout the Gem's specs to see how to use it!
