So, I've been working with Rails for quite a while, but pretty new to actually digging in and patching/plugging the actual source methods of Rails modules.
I'm trying to use ActiveRecord to create some Ruby wrappers for a couple API's, but having to patch/rewrite so many of the ActiveResource methods to fit each particular API (not necessarily ActiveResource-compatible API's mind you). It's getting to the point that I'm wondering if it's even worth it to try using ActiveResource. Anyway, I was wondering if there is any quick/easy way of using ActiveRecord's Dirty module with ActiveResource, so that I can use methods such as "Person.changed?", etc. with ActiveResource objects. Has anyone tried this, or does anyone see any huge hurdles to attempting this? I've tried just doing this: require 'rubygems' require 'activeresource' require 'active_record/dirty' And then I have: class Base < ActiveResource::Base ... class MyObject < Base ... end end Now how do I actually try attaching the "Dirty" methods to my objects, which are inheriting from ActiveResource::Base? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
