This gem is adding shortcuts for Integer and Array classes so you can call to_XXXXX method and get object or relation object.

For example you have classes User, Company in your app.

You can do the following:

1.to_user which is equat to User.find(1) [1,2,3].to_users => User.where(id: [1,2,3])

42.to_company => Company.find(42)

gem 'just_for_fun'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install just_for_fun

See lib/tasks/railtie.rb. When app is starting gem is defining such methods.

in development.rb to preload all models.

Rails.application.configure do
  config.eager_load = true
end
