# Lite::Decorator [![Gem Version](https://badge.fury.io/rb/lite-decorator.svg)](http://badge.fury.io/rb/lite-decorator) [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/drexed/lite-decorator.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/drexed/lite-decorator) Lite::Decorator is a library for using the decorator pattern to separate view/presentation logic from classes. ## Installation Add this line to your application's Gemfile: ```ruby gem 'lite-decorator' ``` And then execute: $ bundle Or install it yourself as: $ gem install lite-decorator ## Table of Contents * [Setup](#setup) * [Usage](#usage) ## Setup #### Generator Use `rails g decorator NAME` will generate the following files: ```erb app/decorators/[NAME]_decorator.rb ``` If an `ApplicationDecorator` file in the `app/decorators` directory is available, the generator will create file that inherit from `ApplicationDecorator` if not it will fallback to `Lite::Decorator::Base`. #### Decorator You will need to fill this class with the methods you want to decorate: ```ruby class UserDecorator < Lite::Decorator::Base def full_name first_name + ' ' + last_name end end ``` ## Usage To access the decorator you need to pass the object to the decorator class. #### Instance ```ruby user = User.first decorator = UserDecorator.new(user) decorator.full_name #=> "John Doe" ``` #### Collection ```ruby users = User.all collection = UserDecorator.new(users) collection.map(&:full_name) #=> ["John Doe", "Jane Poe"] ``` ## Development After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake spec` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment. To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org). ## Contributing Bug reports and pull requests are welcome on GitHub at https://github.com/drexed/lite-decorator.
