=IsAlias

This gem makes it easy to add simple active record attribute check methods.

http://github.com/neonlex/is_alias

==Installation

You can use the latest IsAlias gem:

  gem install is_alias

After you install IsAlias, add it to your Gemfile.

==Usage

===Defining the aliases

  class User < ActiveRecord::Base

    is_alias :staff => true, :hireable => :profile_hireable

  end

+is_alias+ takes a hash. The keys are the method names which, would be generated. The values are the active record fields.

Use symbols.

If the value is true, than the system uses the key as value.

===Generated instance methods

Calling +is_alias+ as shown above creates the following instance methods

on Spaceship:

  User#is_staff?

  User#is_hireable?
