Column Prefix
Extends ActiveResource with column prefix option. Column Prefix will then alias all columns with the same column name, minus the prefix.
Please note that if an unprefixed name would override an existing attribute or method it will not be aliased. However, you can still access the attribute via its prefixed version.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'column_prefix'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install column_prefix
Usage
In your model, declare the column_prefix
you would like to alias. For the prefix "entry_":
class Entry < ActiveRecord::Base
column_prefix "entry_"
end
You can then access attributes via their simpler name. For example, the column "entry_title" can be accessed via e.title
or e.entry_title
(where e
is an instance of Entry
).
