module FactoryGirl
  module Syntax

    # Extends ActiveRecord::Base to provide a make class method, which is a
    # shortcut for FactoryGirl.create.
    #
    # Usage:
    #
    #   require 'factory_girl/syntax/make'
    #
    #   FactoryGirl.define do
    #     factory :user do
    #       name 'Billy Bob'
    #       email '[e-mail]'
    #     end
    #   end
    #
    #   User.make(:name => 'Johnny')
    #
    # This syntax was derived from Pete Yandell's machinist.
