Add attr_evaluated to StaticAssociation objects#32
Merged
Conversation
`attr_evaluated` can be used to define an attribute who's return value
is evaluated/computed at runtime.
It defines a normal writer method using `attr_writer` which can take
either a static value or a proc/lambda.
If the latter, the reader method will evaluate the proc/lambda when
called and return its value. This allows for defining dynamic runtime
behaviour for specific record attributes.
A static value can still be assigned like other non-evaluated
attributes, and that value will always be returned.
E.g.
```ruby
class MyClass
include StaticAssociation
attr_accessor :toggle
attr_evaluated :status
record(id: 1) do
self.toggle = true
self.status = -> { toggle ? "on" : "off" }
end
record(id: 2) do
self.toggle = true
self.status = "static value"
end
end
record1 = MyClass.find(1)
record1.status # => "on"
record2 = MyClass.find(2)
record2.status # => "static value"
```
As with `attr_accessor` you can pass multiple attribute names to a
single `attr_evaluated` call.
```ruby
attr_evaluated :my_attr_1, :my_attr_2
```
