Hello all, I've dabbled in datamapper in the past, but don't have much experience in it. I'm trying to evaluate its usefulness for solving a problem I have.
I have a number of tables (probably ~50) that I need to get data from. Each table has 5 columns in common. Beyond those 5 columns each table has various numbers of various other columns; none of them in common with other tables. I would like to find a means of ORM that would allow me to declare a single model that could handle the basic 5 pieces of common data, but then also access the extra columns dynamically depending on what table was specified. I would really prefer NOT to have to write 50 or so models (especially since this number is being added to and subtracted from in an ongoing fashion). I was wondering if perhaps Datamapper might be able to solve this in a clean dynamic way. Thoughts anyone?
