# Activates the observers assigned. Examples:
#
# # Calls PersonObserver.instance
# ActiveRecord::Base.observers = :person_observer
#
# # Calls Cacher.instance and GarbageCollector.instance
# ActiveRecord::Base.observers = :cacher, :garbage_collector
#
# # Same as above, just using explicit class references
# ActiveRecord::Base.observers = Cacher, GarbageCollector
def observers=(*observers)

observer.to_s.camelize.constantize.instance :
observer.instance
end
end
end
end
# Observer classes respond to lifecycle callbacks to implement trigger-like
# behavior outside the original class. This is a great way to reduce the
# clutter that normally comes when the model class is burdened with
# functionality that doesn't pertain to the core responsibility of the
# class. Example:
#
# class CommentObserver < ActiveRecord::Observer
# def after_save(comment)
# Notifications.deliver_comment("admin@do.com", "New comment was posted", comment)
# end
# end
#
# This Observer sends an email when a Comment#save is finished.
#
# == Observing a class that can't be inferred
#
# Observers will by default be mapped to the class with which they share a name. So CommentObserver will
# be tied to observing Comment, ProductManagerObserver to ProductManager, and so on. If you want to name your observer
# differently than the class you're interested in observing, you can use the Observer.observe class method:
#
# class AuditObserver < ActiveRecord::Observer
# observe Account
#
# def after_update(account)
# AuditTrail.new(account, "UPDATED")
# end
# end
#
# If the audit observer needs to watch more than one kind of object, this can be specified with multiple arguments:
#
# class AuditObserver < ActiveRecord::Observer
# observe Account, Balance
#
# def after_update(record)
# AuditTrail.new(record, "UPDATED")
# end
# end
#
# The AuditObserver will now act on both updates to Account and Balance by treating them both as records.
#
# == Available callback methods
#
# The observer can implement callback methods for each of the methods described in the Callbacks module.
#
# == Triggering Observers
#
# In order to activate an observer, list it in the <tt>config.active_record.observers</tt> configuration setting in your
# <tt>config/environment.rb</tt> file.
#
# config.active_record.observers = :comment_observer, :signup_observer
class Observer
include Singleton
# Observer subclasses should be reloaded by the dispatcher in Rails
# when Dependencies.mechanism = :load.
include Reloadable::Subclasses
# Attaches the observer to the supplied model classes.
def self.observe(*models)
define_method(:observed_class) { models }
