Ruby Decorator based framework (aka decorator/presenter objects)
Lite::Decorator is a library for using the decorator pattern to separate view/presentation logic from classes.
Add this line to your application’s Gemfile:
gem 'lite-decorator'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install lite-decorator
Use rails g decorator NAME
will generate the following files:
app/decorators/[NAME]_decorator.rb
If an ApplicationDecorator
file in the app/decorators
directory is available, the
generator will create file that inherit from ApplicationDecorator
if not it will
fallback to Lite::Decorator::Base
.
You will need to fill this class with the methods you want to decorate:
class UserDecorator < Lite::Decorator::Base
def full_name
first_name + ' ' + last_name
end
end
To access the decorator you need to pass the object to the decorator class.
user = User.first
decorator = UserDecorator.new(user)
decorator.full_name #=> "John Doe"
users = User.all
collection = UserDecorator.new(users)
collection.map(&:full_name) #=> ["John Doe", "Jane Poe"]
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.
