Re: Dynamic Logic
We had to do something similar on a project that required a dynamic workflow setup where the client needed to be able to change workflows at anytime. We had a Workflow model that defined different workflows for things like articles, requests, tickets, or what have you and then a WorkflowStep model that detailed the specific steps that were for a workflow. An article may start as a draft, then be moved to pending and finally live. So, Workflow had many WorkflowStep. From there we made the HABTM table of workflow_steps_workflow_steps which was where we laid out the allowed steps a current step could go to; draft to pending, pending to draft, pending to live, etc. It's really not as confusing as it sounds once you start playing with it. You have to write your code a little bit differently but yeah, it can be done. On Nov 15, 6:35 pm, korcan [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Has anyone ever put logic into a db table?
