Comment on Using Cells View Inheritance to clean up your views by Tomasz

Cells are great and helpful! Just fits right in big projects. Well, I’m strongly using everywhere, whenever it can simplify reusing of codes, and actually I’m any more seeing partials. Now I’m porting my cms project to Rails 3 and waiting for Cells release. Keep doing great work.

yo trans,
thanks for your post!

1) what about some
provides public_instance_methods
or
provides :public_methods => true
or so? i enjoy being explicit.

2) yeah i know, you’re definitly right. i wanted to relate it to ActiveSupport, which is pretty useful and completely rails independent. you using rails?

3) link to the repository is at the top, i’ll add another one in a second.

thanks again,
nick

Very nice. I’ve wondered about something like this myself. Glad to see someone doing it.

Couple of thoughts: 1) Can public methods automatically be ‘provides’? 2) naming the library ActiveHelpers pretty much shouts “RAILS”, so despite being generally useful I am not sure you’ll get a lot of traction outside Rails. Just a thought.

Lastly, a link to the source code/ repository would be great.

Comment on Onfire brings bubbling events to your Ruby objects by nick

claudio- we can surely make the :parent name configurable. want me to do that?

i’d solve your second problem like this

City
def parent; country; end
Country
def parent; continent; end

and so on!

thanks for your questions, they gave me an insight in the applications of it!!!

Comment on Onfire brings bubbling events to your Ruby objects by Claudio Petasecca Donati

Nice module!

Is there a way to use a hierarchy-navigation method other than :parent?

What if, for example, my class has a hierarchy based on method :container?

And what if my hierarchy is polymorphic, with different bubble-up methods?
For example, a geographic hierarchy composed by [City, Country, Continent, World] where a City has its parent in a Country through method :country, a Country has its parent in Continent through method :continent, and so on?

Nice work, I enjoy it
