 You can configure the behavior to only include fields that you list or to only include fields that you don't exclude. Of the three, the most performant will be the indiscriminate style, followed by the inclusive style, and the exclusive style will be the slowest because of the need for an extra explicit check on each field. This performance difference is likely negligible enough that you can choose the style to use based on which is easiest to read and write, however, if your data tree is large enough and you need control over what fields get copied, inclusive style is probably a better choice than exclusive style.

 If you only want some of the associations copied but not others, you may use the inclusive style:
 
-    class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
-      has_many :comments
-      has_many :tags
-      has_many :authors
+```ruby
+class Post < ActiveRecord::Base

-        include_association :tags

+end
 
-    class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
-      belongs_to :post
-    end
+class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
+  belongs_to :post
+end
+```
 
 Using the inclusive style within the amoeba block actually implies that you wish to enable amoeba, so there is no need to run the enable method, though it won't hurt either:
 
-    class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
-      has_many :comments
-      has_many :tags
-      has_many :authors
+```ruby
+class Post < ActiveRecord::Base

-      amoeba do
-        include_association :tags

+end
 
-    class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
-      belongs_to :post
-    end
+class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
+  belongs_to :post
+end
+```
 
 You may also specify fields to be copied by passing an array. If you call the `include_association` with a single value, it will be appended to the list of already included fields. If you pass an array, your array will overwrite the original values.
 
-    class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
-      has_many :comments
-      has_many :tags
-      has_many :authors
+```ruby
+class Post < ActiveRecord::Base

+The inclusive style, when used, will automatically disable any other style that was previously selected.
 
 #### Exclusive Style
 
 If you have more fields to include than to exclude, you may wish to shorten the amount of typing and reading you need to do by using the exclusive style. All fields that are not explicitly excluded will be copied:
 
-    class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
-      has_many :comments
-      has_many :tags
-      has_many :authors
+```ruby
+class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
+  has_many :comments
+  has_many :tags
+  has_many :authors
 
-      amoeba do
-        exclude_association :comments
-      end
-    end
+  amoeba do
+    exclude_association :comments

+end
 
-    class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
-      belongs_to :post
-    end
+class Comment < ActiveRecord::Base
+  belongs_to :post
+end
+```
 
 This example does the same thing as the inclusive style example, it will copy the post's tags and authors but not its comments. As with inclusive style, there is no need to explicitly enable amoeba when specifying fields to exclude.
 
-The exclusive style, when used, will automatically disable any other style that was previously selected, so if you selected include fields, and then you choose some exclude fields, the `exclude_association` method will disable the previously slected inclusive style and wipe out any corresponding include fields.
+The exclusive style, when used, will automatically disable any other style that was previously selected, so if you selected include fields, and then you choose some exclude fields, the `exclude_association` method will disable the previously selected inclusive style and wipe out any corresponding include fields.
+
+#### Conditions
+
+Also if you need to path extra condition for include or exclude relationship you can path method name to `:if` option.
+
+```ruby
+class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
+  has_many :comments
+  has_many :tags
+
+  amoeba do
+    include_association :comments, if: :popular?
+  end
+  
+  def popular?
+    likes > 15
+  end
+end
+```
+
+After call `Post.first.amoeba_dup` if `likes` is larger 15 than all comments will be duplicated too, but in another situation - no relations will be cloned. Same behavior will be for `exclude_association`.
+
+**Be aware**! If you wrote:
+```ruby
+class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
+  has_many :comments
+  has_many :tags
+
+  amoeba do
+    exclude_association :tags
+    include_association :comments, if: :popular?
+  end
+  
+  def popular?
+    likes > 15
+  end
+end
+```
+inclusion strategy will be chosen regardless of the result of `popular?` method call (the same for reverse situation).
 
 #### Cloning
 
 If you are using a Many-to-Many relationship, you may tell amoeba to actually make duplicates of the original related records rather than merely maintaining association with the original records. Cloning is easy, merely tell amoeba which fields to clone in the same way you tell it which fields to include or exclude.
 
-    class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
-      has_and_belongs_to_many :warnings
+```ruby
+class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
+  has_and_belongs_to_many :warnings
 
-      has_many :post_widgets
-      has_many :widgets, :through => :post_widgets
+  has_many :post_widgets
+  has_many :widgets, :through => :post_widgets
 
-      amoeba do
-        enable
-        clone [:widgets, :warnings]
-      end
-    end
+  amoeba do
+    enable
+    clone [:widgets, :warnings]
+  end
+end
 
-    class Warning < ActiveRecord::Base
-      has_and_belongs_to_many :posts
-    end
+class Warning < ActiveRecord::Base
+  has_and_belongs_to_many :posts
+end
 
-    class PostWidget < ActiveRecord::Base
-      belongs_to :widget
-      belongs_to :post
-    end
+class PostWidget < ActiveRecord::Base
+  belongs_to :widget
+  belongs_to :post
+end
 
-    class Widget < ActiveRecord::Base
-      has_many :post_widgets
-      has_many :posts, :through => :post_widgets
-    end
+class Widget < ActiveRecord::Base
+  has_many :post_widgets
+  has_many :posts, :through => :post_widgets
+end
+```
 
 This example will actually duplicate the warnings and widgets in the database. If there were originally 3 warnings in the database then, upon duplicating a post, you will end up with 6 warnings in the database. This is in contrast to the default behavior where your new post would merely be re-associated with any previously existing warnings and those warnings themselves would not be duplicated.

Each block must have the same form, meaning that each block must accept two parameters, the original object and the newly copied object. You may then do whatever you wish, like this:
 
-    class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
-      amoeba do
-        prepend :title => "Hello world! "
-
-        customize(lambda { |original_post,new_post|

 Like `nullify`, the preprocessing directives do not automatically enable the copying of associated child records.

 This example will copy all of a post's tags and authors, but not its comments. It will also nullify the publishing date and dissociate the post from its original topic. It will also preprocess the post's fields as in the previous preprocessing example.
 
 Note that, because of precedence, inclusive style is used and the list of exclude fields is never consulted. Additionally, the `enable` method is redundant because amoeba is automatically enabled when using `include_association`.

 ### Has Many Through
 
 Copying of `has_many :through` associations works automatically. They perform the copy in the same way as the `has_and_belongs_to_many` association, meaning the actual child records are not copied, but rather the associations are simply maintained. You can add some field preprocessors to the middle model if you like but this is not strictly necessary:

-      has_many :parts, :through => :manifests

 ### On The Fly Configuration
 
 You may control how amoeba copies your object, on the fly, by passing a configuration block to the model's amoeba method. The configuration method is static but the configuration is applied on a per instance basis.
 
-    class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
-      has_many :comments
+```ruby

+end

 ### Inheritance
 
 If you are using the Single Table Inheritance provided by ActiveRecord, you may cause amoeba to automatically process child classes in the same way as their parents. All you need to do is call the `propagate` method within the amoeba block of the parent class and all child classes should copy in a similar manner.

 This issue with `accepts_nested_attributes_for` can also be solved by using `:inverse_of`, like this:

 The crux of the issue is that upon duplication, the new `Author` instance does not yet have an ID because it has not yet been persisted, so the `:posts` do not yet have an `:author_id` either, and thus no `:author` and thus they will fail validation. This issue may likely affect amoeba usage so if you get some validation failures, be sure to add `:inverse_of` to your models.
