+module Rails
+ # <tt>Rails::Engine</tt> allows you to wrap a specific Rails application or subset of
+ # functionality and share it with other applications or within a larger packaged application.
+ # Since Rails 3.0, every <tt>Rails::Application</tt> is just an engine, which allows for simple
+ # feature and application sharing.
+ #
+ # Any <tt>Rails::Engine</tt> is also a <tt>Rails::Railtie</tt>, so the same
+ # methods (like <tt>rake_tasks</tt> and +generators+) and configuration
+ # options that are available in railties can also be used in engines.
+ #
+ # == Creating an Engine
+ #
+ # In Rails versions prior to 3.0, your gems automatically behaved as engines, however,
+ # this coupled Rails to Rubygems. Since Rails 3.0, if you want a gem to automatically
+ # behave as an engine, you have to specify an +Engine+ for it somewhere inside
+ # your plugin's +lib+ folder (similar to how we specify a +Railtie+):
+ #
+ # # lib/my_engine.rb
+ # module MyEngine
+ # class Engine < Rails::Engine
+ # end
+ # end
+ #
+ # Then ensure that this file is loaded at the top of your <tt>config/application.rb</tt>
+ # (or in your +Gemfile+) and it will automatically load models, controllers and helpers
+ # inside +app+, load routes at <tt>config/routes.rb</tt>, load locales at
+ # <tt>config/locales/*</tt>, and load tasks at <tt>lib/tasks/*</tt>.
+ #
+ # == Configuration
+ #
+ # Besides the +Railtie+ configuration which is shared across the application, in a
+ # <tt>Rails::Engine</tt> you can access <tt>autoload_paths</tt>, <tt>eager_load_paths</tt>
+ # and <tt>autoload_once_paths</tt>, which, differently from a <tt>Railtie</tt>, are scoped to
+ # the current engine.
+ #
+ # class MyEngine < Rails::Engine
+ # # Add a load path for this specific Engine
+ # config.autoload_paths << File.expand_path("../lib/some/path", __FILE__)
+ #
+ # initializer "my_engine.add_middleware" do |app|
+ # app.middleware.use MyEngine::Middleware
+ # end
+ # end
+ #
+ # == Generators
+ #
+ # You can set up generators for engines with <tt>config.generators</tt> method:
+ #
+ # class MyEngine < Rails::Engine
+ # config.generators do |g|
+ # g.orm :active_record
+ # g.template_engine :erb
+ # g.test_framework :test_unit
+ # end
+ # end
+ #
+ # You can also set generators for an application by using <tt>config.app_generators</tt>:
+ #
+ # class MyEngine < Rails::Engine
+ # # note that you can also pass block to app_generators in the same way you
+ # # can pass it to generators method
+ # config.app_generators.orm :datamapper
+ # end
+ #
+ # == Paths
+ #
+ # Since Rails 3.0, applications and engines have more flexible path configuration (as
+ # opposed to the previous hardcoded path configuration). This means that you are not
+ # required to place your controllers at <tt>app/controllers</tt>, but in any place
+ # which you find convenient.
+ #
+ # For example, let's suppose you want to place your controllers in <tt>lib/controllers</tt>.
+ # You can set that as an option:
+ #
+ # class MyEngine < Rails::Engine
+ # paths["app/controllers"] = "lib/controllers"
+ # end
+ #
+ # You can also have your controllers loaded from both <tt>app/controllers</tt> and
+ # <tt>lib/controllers</tt>:
+ #
+ # class MyEngine < Rails::Engine
+ # paths["app/controllers"] << "lib/controllers"
+ # end
+ #
+ # The available paths in an engine are:
+ #
+ # class MyEngine < Rails::Engine
+ # paths["app"] # => ["app"]
+ # paths["app/controllers"] # => ["app/controllers"]
+ # paths["app/helpers"] # => ["app/helpers"]
+ # paths["app/models"] # => ["app/models"]
+ # paths["app/views"] # => ["app/views"]
+ # paths["lib"] # => ["lib"]
+ # paths["lib/tasks"] # => ["lib/tasks"]
+ # paths["config"] # => ["config"]
+ # paths["config/initializers"] # => ["config/initializers"]
+ # paths["config/locales"] # => ["config/locales"]
+ # paths["config/routes.rb"] # => ["config/routes.rb"]
+ # end
+ #
+ # The <tt>Application</tt> class adds a couple more paths to this set. And as in your
+ # <tt>Application</tt>, all folders under +app+ are automatically added to the load path.
+ # If you have an <tt>app/services</tt> folder for example, it will be added by default.
+ #
+ # == Endpoint
+ #
+ # An engine can be also a rack application. It can be useful if you have a rack application that
+ # you would like to wrap with +Engine+ and provide some of the +Engine+'s features.
+ #
+ # To do that, use the +endpoint+ method:
+ #
+ # module MyEngine
+ # class Engine < Rails::Engine
+ # endpoint MyRackApplication
+ # end
+ # end
+ #
+ # Now you can mount your engine in application's routes just like that:
+ #
+ # Rails.application.routes.draw do
+ # mount MyEngine::Engine => "/engine"
+ # end
+ #
+ # == Middleware stack
+ #
+ # As an engine can now be a rack endpoint, it can also have a middleware
+ # stack. The usage is exactly the same as in <tt>Application</tt>:
+ #
+ # module MyEngine
+ # class Engine < Rails::Engine
+ # middleware.use SomeMiddleware
+ # end
+ # end
+ #
+ # == Routes
+ #
+ # If you don't specify an endpoint, routes will be used as the default
+ # endpoint. You can use them just like you use an application's routes:
+ #
+ # # ENGINE/config/routes.rb
+ # MyEngine::Engine.routes.draw do
+ # get "/" => "posts#index"
+ # end
+ #
+ # == Mount priority
+ #
+ # Note that now there can be more than one router in your application, and it's better to avoid
+ # passing requests through many routers. Consider this situation:
+ #
+ # Rails.application.routes.draw do
+ # mount MyEngine::Engine => "/blog"
+ # get "/blog/omg" => "main#omg"
+ # end
+ #
+ # +MyEngine+ is mounted at <tt>/blog</tt>, and <tt>/blog/omg</tt> points to application's
+ # controller. In such a situation, requests to <tt>/blog/omg</tt> will go through +MyEngine+,
+ # and if there is no such route in +Engine+'s routes, it will be dispatched to <tt>main#omg</tt>.
+ # It's much better to swap that:
+ #
+ # Rails.application.routes.draw do
+ # get "/blog/omg" => "main#omg"
+ # mount MyEngine::Engine => "/blog"
+ # end
+ #
+ # Now, +Engine+ will get only requests that were not handled by +Application+.
+ #
+ # == Engine name
+ #
+ # There are some places where an Engine's name is used:
+ #
+ # * routes: when you mount an Engine with <tt>mount(MyEngine::Engine => '/my_engine')</tt>,
+ # it's used as default <tt>:as</tt> option
+ # * rake task for installing migrations <tt>my_engine:install:migrations</tt>
+ #
+ # Engine name is set by default based on class name. For <tt>MyEngine::Engine</tt> it will be
+ # <tt>my_engine_engine</tt>. You can change it manually using the <tt>engine_name</tt> method:
+ #
+ # module MyEngine
+ # class Engine < Rails::Engine
+ # engine_name "my_engine"
+ # end
+ # end
+ #
+ # == Isolated Engine
+ #
+ # Normally when you create controllers, helpers and models inside an engine, they are treated
+ # as if they were created inside the application itself. This means that all helpers and
+ # named routes from the application will be available to your engine's controllers as well.
+ #
+ # However, sometimes you want to isolate your engine from the application, especially if your engine
+ # has its own router. To do that, you simply need to call +isolate_namespace+. This method requires
+ # you to pass a module where all your controllers, helpers and models should be nested to:
+ #
+ # module MyEngine
+ # class Engine < Rails::Engine
+ # isolate_namespace MyEngine
+ # end
+ # end
+ #
+ # With such an engine, everything that is inside the +MyEngine+ module will be isolated from
+ # the application.
+ #
+ # Consider such controller:
+ #
+ # module MyEngine
+ # class FooController < ActionController::Base
+ # end
+ # end
+ #
+ # If an engine is marked as isolated, +FooController+ has access only to helpers from +Engine+ and
+ # <tt>url_helpers</tt> from <tt>MyEngine::Engine.routes</tt>.
+ #
+ # The next thing that changes in isolated engines is the behavior of routes. Normally, when you namespace
+ # your controllers, you also need to do namespace all your routes. With an isolated engine,
+ # the namespace is applied by default, so you can ignore it in routes:
+ #
+ # MyEngine::Engine.routes.draw do
+ # resources :articles
+ # end
+ #
+ # The routes above will automatically point to <tt>MyEngine::ArticlesController</tt>. Furthermore, you don't
+ # need to use longer url helpers like <tt>my_engine_articles_path</tt>. Instead, you should simply use
+ # <tt>articles_path</tt> as you would do with your application.
+ #
+ # To make that behavior consistent with other parts of the framework, an isolated engine also has influence on
+ # <tt>ActiveModel::Naming</tt>. When you use a namespaced model, like <tt>MyEngine::Article</tt>, it will normally
+ # use the prefix "my_engine". In an isolated engine, the prefix will be omitted in url helpers and
+ # form fields for convenience.
+ #
+ # polymorphic_url(MyEngine::Article.new) # => "articles_path"
+ #
+ # form_for(MyEngine::Article.new) do
+ # text_field :title # => <input type="text" name="article[title]" id="article_title" />
+ # end
+ #
+ # Additionally, an isolated engine will set its name according to namespace, so
+ # MyEngine::Engine.engine_name will be "my_engine". It will also set MyEngine.table_name_prefix
+ # to "my_engine_", changing the MyEngine::Article model to use the my_engine_articles table.
+ #
+ # == Using Engine's routes outside Engine
+ #
+ # Since you can now mount an engine inside application's routes, you do not have direct access to +Engine+'s
+ # <tt>url_helpers</tt> inside +Application+. When you mount an engine in an application's routes, a special helper is
+ # created to allow you to do that. Consider such a scenario:
+ #
+ # # config/routes.rb
+ # Rails.application.routes.draw do
+ # mount MyEngine::Engine => "/my_engine", as: "my_engine"
+ # get "/foo" => "foo#index"
+ # end
+ #
+ # Now, you can use the <tt>my_engine</tt> helper inside your application:
+ #
+ # class FooController < ApplicationController
+ # def index
+ # my_engine.root_url # => /my_engine/
+ # end
+ # end
+ #
+ # There is also a <tt>main_app</tt> helper that gives you access to application's routes inside Engine:
+ #
+ # module MyEngine
+ # class BarController
+ # def index
+ # main_app.foo_path # => /foo
+ # end
+ # end
+ # end
+ #
+ # Note that the <tt>:as</tt> option given to mount takes the <tt>engine_name</tt> as default, so most of the time
+ # you can simply omit it.
+ #
+ # Finally, if you want to generate a url to an engine's route using
+ # <tt>polymorphic_url</tt>, you also need to pass the engine helper. Let's
+ # say that you want to create a form pointing to one of the engine's routes.
+ # All you need to do is pass the helper as the first element in array with
+ # attributes for url:
+ #
+ # form_for([my_engine, @user])
+ #
+ # This code will use <tt>my_engine.user_path(@user)</tt> to generate the proper route.
+ #
+ # == Isolated engine's helpers
+ #
+ # Sometimes you may want to isolate engine, but use helpers that are defined for it.
+ # If you want to share just a few specific helpers you can add them to application's
+ # helpers in ApplicationController:
+ #
+ # class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
+ # helper MyEngine::SharedEngineHelper
+ # end
+ #
+ # If you want to include all of the engine's helpers, you can use #helper method on an engine's
+ # instance:
+ #
+ # class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
+ # helper MyEngine::Engine.helpers
+ # end
+ #
+ # It will include all of the helpers from engine's directory. Take into account that this does
+ # not include helpers defined in controllers with helper_method or other similar solutions,
+ # only helpers defined in the helpers directory will be included.
+ #
+ # == Migrations & seed data
+ #
+ # Engines can have their own migrations. The default path for migrations is exactly the same
+ # as in application: <tt>db/migrate</tt>
+ #
+ # To use engine's migrations in application you can use rake task, which copies them to
+ # application's dir:
+ #
+ # rake ENGINE_NAME:install:migrations
+ #
+ # Note that some of the migrations may be skipped if a migration with the same name already exists
+ # in application. In such a situation you must decide whether to leave that migration or rename the
+ # migration in the application and rerun copying migrations.
+ #
+ # If your engine has migrations, you may also want to prepare data for the database in
+ # the <tt>db/seeds.rb</tt> file. You can load that data using the <tt>load_seed</tt> method, e.g.
+ #
+ # MyEngine::Engine.load_seed
+ #
+ # == Loading priority
+ #
+ # In order to change engine's priority you can use +config.railties_order+ in main application.
+ # It will affect the priority of loading views, helpers, assets and all the other files
+ # related to engine or application.
+ #
+ # # load Blog::Engine with highest priority, followed by application and other railties
+ # config.railties_order = [Blog::Engine, :main_app, :all]
