Shared attribute accros models Enumerize












0















I'm using Enumerize gem and I would like to create an Enum that is shared among two models.



My model with Enum looks like this:



class StudyTypeEnum < ApplicationRecord

extends Enumerize
enumerize :studytype, in: {:full_time, :part_time}

end


and then I just include it in the other models



class Course < ApplicationRecord

include StudyTypeEnum
...


Im not sure how to create the migration now, do I need to create the StudyType columns in both StudyTypeEnum and Course models?

          in the file: app/models/concerns/enumerable_study.rb



          module EnumerableStudy
          extend ActiveSupport::Concern
          extends Enumerize

          included do
          enumerize :studytype, in: {:full_time, :part_time}

          end


          and then if any of your models need that field just do:



          e.g in the file: app/models/course



          class Course < ApplicationRecord
          include EnumerableStudy
          end

            In Ruby classes cannot be included in other classes - only modules can. Classes can only be used for "classical" vertical inheritance (a class inherits from a single base class).



            module StudyTypeEnum
            def self.included(base)
            base.extend Enumerize
            base.class_eval do
            enumerize :studytype, in: {:full_time, :part_time}
            end
            end
            end


            Since the code needs to be executed in the context of the class that includes the module we need define a self.included method that is called when we include the class. You can also use ActiveSupport::Concern which wraps this common Ruby idiom.



            class Course < ApplicationRecord
            include StudyTypeEnum
            end



            Im not sure how to create the migration now, do I need to create the
            StudyType columns in both StudyTypeEnum and Course models?




            Since StudyTypeEnum is a module that is mixed into model classes it does have a table.



            You only need to add the column to the actual models - in this case Course - and any other model that you plan on including StudyTypeEnum in.
