# The meta_def extension is designed for backwards compatibility # with older Sequel code that uses the meta_def method on # Database, Dataset, and Model classes and/or instances. It is # not recommended for usage in new code. To load this extension: # # Sequel.extension :meta_def # module Sequel # Contains meta_def method for adding methods to objects via blocks. # Only recommended for backwards compatibility with existing code. module Metaprogramming # Define a method with the given name and block body on the receiver. # # ds = DB[:items] # ds.meta_def(:x){42} # ds.x # => 42 def meta_def(name, &block) (class << self; self end).send(:define_method, name, &block) end end Database.extend Metaprogramming Database.send(:include, Metaprogramming) Dataset.extend Metaprogramming Dataset.send(:include, Metaprogramming) if defined?(Model) Model.extend Metaprogramming Model.send(:include, Metaprogramming) end end
