VirtualView

VirtualView unlocks the ability to back your models with in-code views, best described in Arel.

Ruby 2.3+ ActiveRecord 4.2+

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'virtual_view'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install virtual_view

Invoking with_virtual_view sets the class up to use the virtual_view functionality.

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
  # the rest of your model code...
end

class Admin < User
  arel_view do
    arel_table.where(arel_table[:role].eq(1))
  end

  # the rest of your model code...
end

After checking out the repo, run bundle to install dependencies. Then, run bundle exec rspec to run the tests.
