# ActsAsMonitor

Provide a way to monitor the status of a model.
The health of the model is checked by private method, defined by user

## Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

    gem 'acts_as_monitor'

And then execute:

    $ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

    $ gem install acts_as_monitor
    
Copy icons and other files

    rails g acts_as_monitor:install

## Usage
    #app/models/user.rb
    class User < ActiveRecord::Base
      acts_as_monitor
    
      ... your code ...
    
      private
    
      def warn_stange?
        ... do some checks and return true or false
        true
      end
    
      def warn_not_now?
        ... do some checks and return true or false
        false
      end
    
      def error_terrible?
        ... do some checks and return true or false
        true
      end
    end

You can now check the status of your model using the following code:
    @user = User.new
    
    @user.status
    > {:warn => [:warn_strange?], :error => [:error_terrible?]}
    
    @user.status_flag
    > :red
    
You can use the monitor_tag helper to view a red/green/yellow rapresentation:
    #app/views/users/index.html.erb
    ...
    <%= monitor_tag(@user) %>
