When controllers are truely restful, the become more and more empty. We got to the point where we had many controllers that were just two lines class .. end. At this point it seemed pointless to have controllers.

InvisibleController

This gem is to speed up development in restful applications. If you are using standard rails best practices and naming conventions, controllers are no longer neccessary.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'invisible_controller'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install invisible_controller

Usage

To use this gem just start deleting your controllers, or don't make them to begin with. If you find that you need some control over your controllers, or if you have nested routes, define your controllers as normal but have them inherit from InvisibleController::Base.

class SomeController < InvisibleController::Base
  belongs_to: some_model, shallow: true, as :some_other_name
end

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
