= lazy_model_const

A convenient variant of +lazy_const+ with an eye towards ActiveRecord models.

== Installation

  gem 'lazy_model_const'

== Example

Here's an example using Rails. Really, any class that has a class method +find_or_create_by_name+ can be used.
If you're not using ActiveRecord, you probably want to use the +lazy_const+ gem.

app/model/group.rb:
  class Group < ActiveRecord::Base
    extend LazyConst
    lazy_const :EVERYONE, name: 'Everyone'
  end

app/model/user.rb:
  class User < ActiveRecord::Base
    has_many :groups
    after_create :add_to_everyone
    def add_to_everyone
      groups << Group.EVERYONE
    end
  end

== Contributing to lazy_model_const
 
* Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet.
* Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it.
* Fork the project.
* Start a feature/bugfix branch.
* Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution.
* Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
* Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
