acts_as_account¶ ↑
Theory¶ ↑
ActsAsAccount implements a “Double Entry Accounting” system for your Rails-models.
It hooks into ActiveRecord and allows to add accounts to any model by simply means of adding has_account
to your model. Because the accounts are connected via a has_many
relation no migration to the account-holder tables is needed.
We also hook into the ActionController request cycle to warn the developer if a request has left uncommitted changes in the system.
How to test¶ ↑
Run the cucumber features from the acs_as_account gem, just execute * rake features:create_database
* cucumber
How to release¶ ↑
You need to update the data in VERSION
and Rakefile and run rake
(because it uses Gemhadar). rake gem:push
will push the version to rubygems.
