Selfer

Stops you having to write class methods that delegate to their respective instance method.

VisibleQuery.find(Hotel.all) looks nicer than VisibleQuery.new(Hotel.all).find but the latter is easier to test. This gem allows the best of both worlds.

Before:

class VisibleQuery
  def initialize(relation)
    @relation = relation
  end

  def all
    @relation.where(hidden: false)
  end

  def find(id)
    all.find(id)
  end

  def self.all(relation)
    new(relation).all
  end

  def self.find(relation, id)
    new(relation).find(id)
  end
end

VisibleQuery.all(Hotel.all)
VisibleQuery.find(Hotel.all,1)

After:

class VisibleQuery
  extend Selfer

  selfer :all, :find

  def initialize(relation)
    @relation = relation
  end

  def all
    @relation.where(hidden: false)
  end

  def find(id)
    all.find(id)
  end
end

VisibleQuery.all(Hotel.all)
VisibleQuery.find(Hotel.all,1)
