module ActiveResource
  # A module to support custom REST methods and sub-resources, allowing you to break out
  # of the "default" REST methods with your own custom resource requests.  For example,
  # say you use Rails to expose a REST service and configure your routes with:
  #
  #    map.resources :people, :new => { :register => :post },
  #                           :member => { :promote => :put, :deactivate => :delete }
  #                           :collection => { :active => :get }
  #
  #  This route set creates routes for the following HTTP requests:
  #
  #    POST    /people/new/register.xml # PeopleController.register
  #    PUT     /people/1/promote.xml    # PeopleController.promote with :id => 1
  #    DELETE  /people/1/deactivate.xml # PeopleController.deactivate with :id => 1
  #    GET     /people/active.xml       # PeopleController.active
  #
  # Using this module, Active Resource can use these custom REST methods just like the
  # standard methods.
  #
  #   class Person < ActiveResource::Base
  #     self.site = "http://37s.sunrise.i:3000"
  #   end
  #
  #   Person.new(:name => 'Ryan).post(:register)  # POST /people/new/register.xml
  #   # => { :id => 1, :name => 'Ryan' }
  #
  #   Person.find(1).put(:promote, :position => 'Manager') # PUT /people/1/promote.xml
  #   Person.find(1).delete(:deactivate) # DELETE /people/1/deactivate.xml
  #
  #   Person.get(:active)  # GET /people/active.xml
  #   # => [{:id => 1, :name => 'Ryan'}, {:id => 2, :name => 'Joe'}]
  #
  module CustomMethods

          # Invokes a GET to a given custom REST method. For example:
          #
          #   Person.get(:active)  # GET /people/active.xml
          #   # => [{:id => 1, :name => 'Ryan'}, {:id => 2, :name => 'Joe'}]
          #
          #   Person.get(:active, :awesome => true)  # GET /people/active.xml?awesome=true
          #   # => [{:id => 1, :name => 'Ryan'}]
          #
          # Note: the objects returned from this method are not automatically converted
          # into ActiveResource::Base instances - they are ordinary Hashes. If you are expecting
          # ActiveResource::Base instances, use the <tt>find</tt> class method with the
          # <tt>:from</tt> option. For example:
          #
          #   Person.find(:all, :from => :active)
