-# Draper: View Models for Rails
-
-[![TravisCI Build Status](https://secure.travis-ci.org/jcasimir/draper.png)](http://travis-ci.org/jcasimir/draper)
-
-## Quick Start
-
-1. Add `gem 'draper'` to your `Gemfile` and `bundle`
-2. When you generate a resource with `rails g resource YourModel`, you get a decorator automatically!
-3. If `YourModel` already exists, run `rails g decorator YourModel` to create `YourModelDecorator`
-4. Edit `app/decorators/[your_model]_decorator.rb` using:
-  1. `h` to proxy to Rails/application helpers like `h.current_user`
-  2. the name of your decorated model to access the wrapped object like `article.created_at`
-5. Wrap models in your controller with the decorator using:
-  1. `.find` automatic lookup & wrap
-    ex: `ArticleDecorator.find(1)`
-  2. `.decorate` method with a single object or collection, 
-    ex: `ArticleDecorator.decorate(Article.all)`
-  3. `.new` method with single object
-    ex: `ArticleDecorator.new(Article.first)`
-6. Call decorator methods from your view templates
-  ex: `<%= @article_decorator.created_at %>`
-
-If you need common methods in your decorators, create an `app/decorators/application_decorator.rb`:
-
-``` ruby
-class ApplicationDecorator < Draper::Base
-  # your methods go here
-end
-```
-
-and make your decorators inherit from it. Newly generated decorators will respect this choice and inherit from `ApplicationDecorator`.
-
-## Goals
-
-This gem makes it easy to apply the decorator pattern to domain models in a Rails application. This pattern gives you three wins:
-
-1. Replace most helpers with an object-oriented approach
-2. Filter data at the presentation level
-3. Enforce an interface between your controllers and view templates.
-
-### 1. Object Oriented Helpers
-
-Why hate normal helpers? In Ruby/Rails we approach everything from an Object-Oriented perspective, then with helpers we get procedural.The job of a helper is to take in data and output a presentation-ready string. We can do that with a decorator.
-
-A decorator wraps an object with presentation-related accessor methods. For instance, if you had an `Article` object, then the decorator could override `.published_at` to use formatted output like this:
-
-```ruby
-class ArticleDecorator < Draper::Base
-  decorates :article
-
-  def published_at
-    date = h.content_tag(:span, article.published_at.strftime("%A, %B %e").squeeze(" "), :class => 'date')
-    time = h.content_tag(:span, article.published_at.strftime("%l:%M%p"), :class => 'time').delete(" ")
-    h.content_tag :span, date + time, :class => 'created_at'
-  end
-end
-```
-
-### 2. View-Layer Data Filtering
-
-Have you ever written a `to_xml` or `to_json` method in your model? Did it feel weird to put presentation logic in your model?
-
-Or, in the course of formatting this data, did you wish you could access `current_user` down in the model? Maybe for guests your `to_json` is only going to show three attributes, but if the user is an admin they get to see them all.
-
-How would you handle this in the model layer? You'd probably pass the `current_user` or some role/flag down to `to_json`. That should still feel slimy.
-
-When you use a decorator you have the power of a Ruby object but it's a part of the view layer. This is where your `to_json` belongs. You can access your `current_user` helper method using the `h` proxy available in the decorator:
-
-```ruby
-class ArticleDecorator < ApplicationDecorator
-  decorates :article
-  
-  ADMIN_VISIBLE_ATTRIBUTES = [:title, :body, :author, :status]
-  PUBLIC_VISIBLE_ATTRIBUTES = [:title, :body]
-
-  def to_json
-    attr_set = h.current_user.admin? ? ADMIN_VISIBLE_ATTRIBUTES : PUBLIC_VISIBLE_ATTRIBUTES
-    article.to_json(:only => attr_set)
-  end
-end
-```
-
-### 3. Enforcing an Interface
-
-Want to strictly control what methods are proxied to the original object? Use `denies` or `allows`.
-
-#### Using `denies`
-
-The `denies` method takes a blacklist approach. For instance:
-
-```ruby
-class ArticleDecorator < ApplicationDecorator
-  decorates :article
-  denies :title
-end
-```
-
-Then, to test it:
-
-```irb
- > ad = ArticleDecorator.find(1)
- => #<ArticleDecorator:0x000001020d7728 @model=#<Article id: 1, title: "Hello, World">> 
- > ad.title
-NoMethodError: undefined method `title' for #<ArticleDecorator:0x000001020d7728>
-``` 
-
-#### Using `allows`
-
-A better approach is to define a whitelist using `allows`:
-
-```ruby
-class ArticleDecorator < ApplicationDecorator
-  decorates :article
-  allows :title, :description
-end
-```
-
-```irb
-> ad = ArticleDecorator.find(1)
-=> #<ArticleDecorator:0x000001020d7728 @model=#<Article id: 1, title: "Hello, World">> 
-> ad.title
-=> "Hello, World"
-> ad.created_at
-NoMethodError: undefined method `created_at' for #<ArticleDecorator:0x000001020d7728>
-```
-
-## Up and Running
-
-### Setup
-
-Add the dependency to your `Gemfile`:
-
-```
-gem "draper"
-```
-
-Then run `bundle` from the project directory.
-
-### Generate the Decorator
-
-To decorate a model named `Article`:
-
-```
-rails generate decorator article
-```
-
-### Writing Methods
-
-Open the decorator model (ex: `app/decorators/article_decorator.rb`) and add normal instance methods. To access the wrapped source object, use a method named after the `decorates` argument:
-
-```ruby
-class ArticleDecorator < Draper::Base
-  decorates :article
-  
-  def author_name
-    article.author.first_name + " " + article.author.last_name
-  end
-end
-```
-
-### Using Existing Helpers
-
-You probably want to make use of Rails helpers and those defined in your application. Use the `helpers` or `h` method proxy:
-
-```ruby
-class ArticleDecorator < Draper::Base
-  decorates :article
-  
-  def published_at
-    date = h.content_tag(:span, article.published_at.strftime("%A, %B %e").squeeze(" "), :class => 'date')
-    time = h.content_tag(:span, article.published_at.strftime("%l:%M%p"), :class => 'time').delete(" ")
-    h.content_tag :span, date + time, :class => 'created_at'
-  end
-end
-```
-
-#### Lazy Helpers
-
-Hate seeing that `h.` proxy all over? Willing to mix a bazillion methods into your decorator? Then try lazy helpers:
-
-```ruby
-class ArticleDecorator < Draper::Base
-  decorates :article
-  include Draper::LazyHelpers
-  
-  def published_at
-    date = content_tag(:span, article.published_at.strftime("%A, %B %e").squeeze(" "), :class => 'date')
-    time = content_tag(:span, article.published_at.strftime("%l:%M%p"), :class => 'time').delete(" ")
-    content_tag :span, date + time, :class => 'created_at'
-  end
-end
-```
-
-### In the Controller
-
-When writing your controller actions, you have three options:
-
-* Call `.new` and pass in the object to be wrapped
-
-```ruby
-ArticleDecorator.new(Article.find(params[:id]))
-```
-
-* Call `.decorate` and pass in an object or collection of objects to be wrapped:
-
-```ruby
-ArticleDecorator.decorate(Article.first) # Returns one instance of ArticleDecorator
-ArticleDecorator.decorate(Article.all)   # Returns an enumeration proxy of ArticleDecorator instances
-```
-  
-* Call `.find` to automatically do a lookup on the `decorates` class:
-
-```ruby
-ArticleDecorator.find(1)
-```
-
-### In Your Views
-
-Use the new methods in your views like any other model method (ex: `@article.published_at`):
-
-```erb
-<h1><%= @article.title %> <%= @article.published_at %></h1>
-```
-
-### Integration with RSpec
-
-Using the provided generator, Draper will place specs for your new decorator in `spec/decorators/`. 
-
-By default, specs in `spec/decorators` will be tagged as `type => :decorator`. Any spec tagged as `decorator` will make helpers available to the decorator.
-
-If your decorator specs live somewhere else, which they shouldn't, make sure to tag them with `type => :decorator`. If you don't tag them, Draper's helpers won't be available to your decorator while testing. 
-
-Note: If you're using Spork, you need to `require 'draper/test/rspec_integration'` in your Spork.prefork block.
-
-## Possible Decoration Methods
-
-Here are some ideas of what you might do in decorator methods:
-
-* Implement output formatting for `to_csv`, `to_json`, or `to_xml`
-* Format dates and times using `strftime`
-* Implement a commonly used representation of the data object like a `.name` method that combines `first_name` and `last_name` attributes
-
-## Learning Resources
-
-### RailsCast
-
-Ryan Bates has put together an excellent RailsCast on Draper based on the 0.8.0 release: http://railscasts.com/episodes/286-draper
-
-### Example Using a Decorator
-
-For a brief tutorial with sample project, check this out: http://tutorials.jumpstartlab.com/topics/decorators.html
-
-Say I have a publishing system with `Article` resources. My designer decides that whenever we print the `published_at` timestamp, it should be constructed like this:
-
-```html
-<span class='published_at'>
-  <span class='date'>Monday, May 6</span>
-  <span class='time'>8:52AM</span>
-</span>
-```
-
-Could we build that using a partial? Yes. A helper? Uh-huh. But the point of the decorator is to encapsulate logic just like we would a method in our models. Here's how to implement it.
-
-First, follow the steps above to add the dependency and update your bundle.
-
-Since we're talking about the `Article` model we'll create an `ArticleDecorator` class. You could do it by hand, but use the provided generator:
-
-```
-rails generate decorator Article
-```
-
-Now open up the created `app/decorators/article_decorator.rb` and you'll find an `ArticleDecorator` class. Add this method:
-
-```ruby
-def published_at
-  date = h.content_tag(:span, article.published_at.strftime("%A, %B %e").squeeze(" "), :class => 'date')
-  time = h.content_tag(:span, article.published_at.strftime("%l:%M%p").delete(" "), :class => 'time')
-  h.content_tag :span, date + time, :class => 'published_at'
-end
-```
-
-Then you need to perform the wrapping in your controller. Here's the simplest method:
-
-```ruby
-class ArticlesController < ApplicationController
-  def show
-    @article = ArticleDecorator.find params[:id]
-  end
-end
-```
-
-Then within your views you can utilize both the normal data methods and your new presentation methods:
-
-```ruby
-<%= @article.published_at %>
-```
-
-Ta-da! Object-oriented data formatting for your view layer. Below is the complete decorator with extra comments removed:
-
-```ruby
-class ArticleDecorator < Draper::Base
-  decorates :article
-  
-  def published_at
-    date = h.content_tag(:span, article.published_at.strftime("%A, %B %e").squeeze(" "), :class => 'date')
-    time = h.content_tag(:span, article.published_at.strftime("%l:%M%p"), :class => 'time').delete(" ")
-    h.content_tag :span, date + time, :class => 'published_at'
-  end
-end
-```
-
-### Example of Decorated Associations
-
-Add a `decorates_association :association_name` to gain access to a decorated version of your target association.
-
-```ruby
-class ArticleDecorator < Draper::Base
-  decorates :article
-  decorates_association :author # belongs_to :author association  
-end
-
-class AuthorDecorator < Draper::Base
-  decorates :author
-  
-  def fancy_name
-    "#{model.title}. #{model.first_name} #{model.middle_name[0]}. #{model.last_name}"
-  end
-end
-```
-
-Now when you call the association it will use a decorator.
-
-```ruby
-<%= @article.author.fancy_name %>
-```
-
-### A note on Rails configuration
-
-Draper loads your application's decorators when Rails start. This may lead to an issue with configuring I18n, whereby the settings you provide in `./config/application.rb` are ignored. This happens when you use the `I18n` constant at the class-level in one of the models that have a decorator, as in the following example:
-
-```ruby
-# app/models/user.rb
-class User < ActiveRecord::Base
-  validates :email, presence: { message: I18n.t('invalid_email') }
-end
-
-# app/decorators/user_decorator.rb
-class UserDecorator < ApplicationDecorator
-  decorates :user
-end
-```
-
-Note how the `validates` line is executed when the `User` class is loaded, triggering the initialization of the I18n framework _before_ Rails had a chance to apply its configuration.
-
-Using `I18n` directly in your model definition **is an antipattern**. The preferred solution would be to not override the `message` option in your `validates` macro, but provide the `activerecord.errors.models.attributes.user.email.presence` key in your translation files.
