EnumIsh
A ruby and rails extension to generate enum-like methods.
Dependencies
- ruby 2.3+
- activerecord 5.0+
- activesupport 5.0+
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'enum_ish'
Then execute:
$ bundle
Usage
Extend your class using EnumIsh and define an enum-like field:
class User
include EnumIsh::Base
attr_accessor :status # status is a string field
enum_ish :status, ['enable', 'disable'] # status has 'enable' or 'disable'
end
Then define i18n translations (example below shows japanese translations):
ja:
enum_ish:
user:
enable: 有効
disable: 無効
Enum-like methods are generated as follows:
user = User.new
user.status = 'enable'
user.status_text #=> "有効"
User.status_options #=> [["有効", "enable"], ["無効", "disable"]]
User.status_options(only: 'enable') #=> [["有効", "enable"]]
User.status_options(except: 'enable') #=> [["無効", "disable"]]
Additional translations
Define additional translations:
ja:
enum_ish:
user:
status:
enable: 有効
disable: 無効
status/short:
enable: 有
disable: 無
user = User.new
user.status = 'enable'
user.status_text(format: :short) #=> "有"
User.status_options(format: :short) #=> [["有", "enable"], ["無", "disable"]]
Default value
Set default value:
class User
include EnumIsh::Base
attr_accessor :status
enum_ish :status, ['enable', 'disable'], default: 'enable'
end
user = User.new
user.status #=> "enable"
Use default value with block:
class User
include EnumIsh::Base
attr_accessor :status, :flag
enum_ish :status, ['enable', 'disable'], default: -> { flag ? 'enable' : 'disable' }
end
user = User.new
user.status #=> "disable"
Predicates
Generate predicate methods:
class User
include EnumIsh::Base
attr_accessor :status
enum_ish :status, ['enable', 'disable'], predicate: true
end
user = User.new
user.status = 'enable'
user.status_enable? #=> true
user.status_disable? #=> false
Without prefix:
class User
include EnumIsh::Base
attr_accessor :status
enum_ish :status, ['enable', 'disable'], predicate: { prefix: false }
end
user = User.new
user.status = 'enable'
user.enable? #=> true
user.disable? #=> false
Accessor
Generate getter and setter for aliased symbols instead of raw values:
class User
include EnumIsh::Base
attr_accessor :status
enum_ish :status, { _enable: 'enable', _disable: 'disable' }, accessor: true
end
user = User.new
user.status = :_enable
user.status #=> :_enable
user.status_raw #=> "enable"
ActiveRecord features
Accessor
Generate accessor:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
include EnumIsh::Base
enum_ish :status, { _enable: 'enable', _disable: 'disable' }, accessor: true
end
User.where(status: :_enable) #=> SELECT "users".* FROM "users" WHERE "users"."status" = "enable"
Scope
Generate scope:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
include EnumIsh::Base
enum_ish :status, ['enable', 'disable'], scope: true
end
User.with_status(:enable) #=> SELECT "users".* FROM "users" WHERE "users"."status" = "enable"
User.with_status_not(:enable) #=> SELECT "users".* FROM "users" WHERE "users"."status" != 'enable'
Validation
Generate validation:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
include EnumIsh::Base
enum_ish :status, ['enable', 'disable'], validate: true
end
user = User.new
user.status = 'INVALID'
user.valid? #=> false
Dictionary cache
You can enable dictionary cache using rack middleware:
Rails.application.config.middleware.use EnumIsh::DictionaryCache
This middleware enables dictionary cache for each request. Performance of dictionary lookup will be improved in case one dictionary is used repeatedly in the same request.
