module ActiveModel
# == Active Model Callbacks
#
# Provides an interface for any class to have Active Record like callbacks.
#
# Like the Active Record methods, the callback chain is aborted as soon as
# one of the methods in the chain returns false.
#
# First, extend ActiveModel::Callbacks from the class you are creating:
#
# class MyModel
# extend ActiveModel::Callbacks
# end
#
# Then define a list of methods that you want callbacks attached to:
#
# define_model_callbacks :create, :update
#
# This will provide all three standard callbacks (before, around and after) for
# both the :create and :update methods. To implement, you need to wrap the methods
# you want callbacks on in a block so that the callbacks get a chance to fire:
#
# def create
# run_callbacks :create do
# # Your create action methods here
# end
# end
#
# Then in your class, you can use the +before_create+, +after_create+ and +around_create+
# methods, just as you would in an Active Record module.
#
# before_create :action_before_create
#
# def action_before_create
# # Your code here
# end
#
# You can choose not to have all three callbacks by passing a hash to the
# define_model_callbacks method.
#
# define_model_callbacks :create, :only => [:after, :before]
#
# Would only create the after_create and before_create callback methods in your
# class.

base.class_eval do
include ActiveSupport::Callbacks
end
end
# define_model_callbacks accepts the same options define_callbacks does, in case
# you want to overwrite a default. Besides that, it also accepts an :only option,
# where you can choose if you want all types (before, around or after) or just some.
#
# define_model_callbacks :initializer, :only => :after
#
# Note, the :only => hash will apply to all callbacks defined on
# that method call. To get around this you can call the define_model_callbacks
# method as many times as you need.
#
# define_model_callbacks :create, :only => :after
# define_model_callbacks :update, :only => :before
# define_model_callbacks :destroy, :only => :around
#
# Would create +after_create+, +before_update+ and +around_destroy+ methods only.
#
# You can pass in a class to before_, after_ and around_, in which
# case the callback will call that class's _ method passing the object
# that the callback is being called on.
#
# class MyModel
# extend ActiveModel::Callbacks
# define_model_callbacks :create
#
# before_create AnotherClass
# end
#
# class AnotherClass
# def self.before_create( obj )
# # obj is the MyModel instance that the callback is being called on
# end
