7
+ ## Introduction:
8
+
9
+ Although polymorphism is a recommended standard in Object-Oriented programming
10
+ for invoking varied behavior in an inheritance hierarchy, sometimes it is still
11
+ useful to verify if a particular model belongs to a certain type when the
12
+ behavior concerned does not belong to the model and is too small to require a
13
+ Design Pattern like Strategy.
14
+
15
+ A common example in Rails is checking user roles before rendering certain
16
+ parts of the view:
17
+
18
+ ```erb
19
+ <% if user.is_a?(Admin) %>
20
+ <%= link_to 'Admin', admin_dashboard_path %>
21
+ <% end %>
22
+ ```
23
+
24
+ To avoid the ```model.is_a?(CertainType)``` syntax, a more readable approach
25
+ that developers resort to is to add an English-like method that hides the
26
+ details of type checking ```model.certain_type?```.
27
+
28
+ The Rails example above would then become:
29
+
30
+ ```erb
31
+ <% if user.admin? %>
32
+ <%= link_to 'Admin', admin_dashboard_path %>
33
+ <% end %>
34
+ ```
35
+
36
+ Implementing such methods manually gets repetitive after a while, so an easier
37
+ way to get these methods automatically is to mixin the ```EasilyTypable```
38
+ module.
39
+
40
+ ## Example:
41
+
42
+ ```ruby
43
+ require 'easily_typable'
44
+
45
+ class TypeA
46
+ include EasilyTypable
47
+ end
48
+
49
+ class TypeB < TypeA
50
+ end
51
+
52
+ class TypeC < TypeB
53
+ end
54
+
55
+ ## RSpec of Easily Typable
56
+ require 'spec_helper'
57
+
58
+ describe EasilyTypable do
59
+ it "adds type_a? method to TypeA object" do
60
+ expect(TypeA.new.type_a?).to be_truthy
61
+ end
62
+ it "adds type_b? method to TypeA object" do
63
+ expect(TypeA.new.type_b?).to be_falsey
64
+ end
65
+ it "adds type_c? method to TypeA object" do
66
+ expect(TypeA.new.type_c?).to be_falsey
67
+ end
68
+ it "adds type_a? method to TypeB object" do
69
+ expect(TypeB.new.type_a?).to be_truthy
70
+ end
71
+ it "adds type_b? method to TypeB object" do
72
+ expect(TypeB.new.type_b?).to be_truthy
73
+ end
74
+ it "adds type_c? method to TypeB object" do
75
+ expect(TypeB.new.type_c?).to be_falsey
76
+ end
77
+ it "adds type_a? method to TypeC object" do
78
+ expect(TypeC.new.type_a?).to be_truthy
79
+ end
80
+ it "adds type_b? method to TypeC object" do
81
+ expect(TypeC.new.type_b?).to be_truthy
82
+ end
83
+ it "adds type_c? method to TypeC object" do
84
+ expect(TypeC.new.type_c?).to be_truthy
85
+ end
86
+ end

+ ## Contributing to Easily Typable
90
+
91
+ * Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet.
92
+ * Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it.
93
+ * Fork the project.
94
+ * Start a feature/bugfix branch.
95
+ * Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution.
96
+ * Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
97
+ * Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
