EventAttribute

EventAttribute allows you to turn your date/datetime columns in to boolean attributes. Idea for this was taken from http://jamis.jamisbuck.org/articles/2005/12/14/two-tips-for-working-with-databases-in-rails

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'event_attribute'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install event_attribute

Usage

class Referral < ActiveRecord::Base
  event_attribute :applied_at, :attribute => 'pending', :nil_equals => true
  event_attribute :subscribed_on
end

referral = Referral.create(:applied_at => Time.now)
referral.pending?           # => false
referral.subscribed?        # => false

referral.pending = true
referral.applied_at         # => nil
referral.pending?           # => true

referral.subscribed = true
referral.subscribed_on      # => Date.today
referral.subscribed?        # => true

In this example, subscribed_on is defined in the schema as being a Date type column, and applied_at is defined in the schema as being a DateTime.
