# == Active Model Attribute Methods
#
# ActiveModel::AttributeMethods provides a way to add prefixes and suffixes
# to your methods as well as handling the creation of Active Record like class methods
# such as +table_name+.
#
# The requirements to implement ActiveModel::AttributeMethods are to:
#
# * include ActiveModel::AttributeMethods in your object
# * Call each Attribute Method module method you want to add, such as
# attribute_method_suffix or attribute_method_prefix
# * Call define_attribute_methods after the other methods are
# called.
# * Define the various generic +_attribute+ methods that you have declared
#
# A minimal implementation could be:
#
# class Person
# include ActiveModel::AttributeMethods
#
# attribute_method_affix :prefix => 'reset_', :suffix => '_to_default!'
# attribute_method_suffix '_contrived?'
# attribute_method_prefix 'clear_'
# define_attribute_methods ['name']
#
# attr_accessor :name
#
# private
#
# def attribute_contrived?(attr)
# true
# end
#
# def clear_attribute(attr)
# send("#{attr}=", nil)
# end
#
# def reset_attribute_to_default!(attr)
# send("#{attr}=", "Default Name")
# end
# end
#
# Notice that whenever you include ActiveModel::AttributeMethods in your class,
# it requires you to implement a attributes methods which returns a hash
# with each attribute name in your model as hash key and the attribute value as
# hash value.
#
# Hash keys must be strings.

module ClassMethods
# Defines an "attribute" method (like +inheritance_column+ or +table_name+).
# A new (class) method will be created with the given name. If a value is
# specified, the new method will return that value (as a string).
# Otherwise, the given block will be used to compute the value of the
# method.
#
# The original method will be aliased, with the new name being prefixed
# with "original_". This allows the new method to access the original
# value.
#
# Example:
#
# class Person
#
# include ActiveModel::AttributeMethods
#
# cattr_accessor :primary_key
# cattr_accessor :inheritance_column
#
# define_attr_method :primary_key, "sysid"
# define_attr_method( :inheritance_column ) do
# original_inheritance_column + "_id"
# end
#
# end
#
# Provides you with:
#
# AttributePerson.primary_key
# # => "sysid"
# AttributePerson.inheritance_column = 'address'
# AttributePerson.inheritance_column
# # => 'address_id'
