- # Active Record implements aggregation through a macro-like class method called +composed_of+ for representing attributes
- # as value objects. It expresses relationships like "Account [is] composed of Money [among other things]" or "Person [is]
- # composed of [an] address". Each call to the macro adds a description of how the value objects are created from the
- # attributes of the entity object (when the entity is initialized either as a new object or from finding an existing object)
- # and how it can be turned back into attributes (when the entity is saved to the database). Example:
- #
- # class Customer < ActiveRecord::Base
- # composed_of :balance, :class_name => "Money", :mapping => %w(balance amount)
- # composed_of :address, :mapping => [ %w(address_street street), %w(address_city city) ]
- # end
- #
- # The customer class now has the following methods to manipulate the value objects:
- # * <tt>Customer#balance, Customer#balance=(money)</tt>
- # * <tt>Customer#address, Customer#address=(address)</tt>
- #
- # These methods will operate with value objects like the ones described below:
- #
- # class Money
- # include Comparable
- # attr_reader :amount, :currency
- # EXCHANGE_RATES = { "USD_TO_DKK" => 6 }
- #
- # def initialize(amount, currency = "USD")
- # @amount, @currency = amount, currency
- # end
- #
- # def exchange_to(other_currency)
- # exchanged_amount = (amount * EXCHANGE_RATES["#{currency}_TO_#{other_currency}"]).floor
- # Money.new(exchanged_amount, other_currency)
- # end
- #
- # def ==(other_money)
- # amount == other_money.amount && currency == other_money.currency
- # end
- #
- # def <=>(other_money)
- # if currency == other_money.currency
- # amount <=> amount
- # else
- # amount <=> other_money.exchange_to(currency).amount
- # end
- # end
- # end
- #
- # class Address
- # attr_reader :street, :city
- # def initialize(street, city)
- # @street, @city = street, city
- # end
- #
- # def close_to?(other_address)
- # city == other_address.city
- # end
- #
- # def ==(other_address)
- # city == other_address.city && street == other_address.street
- # end
- # end
- #
- # Now it's possible to access attributes from the database through the value objects instead. If you choose to name the
- # composition the same as the attribute's name, it will be the only way to access that attribute. That's the case with our
- # +balance+ attribute. You interact with the value objects just like you would any other attribute, though:
- #
- # customer.balance = Money.new(20) # sets the Money value object and the attribute
- # customer.balance # => Money value object
- # customer.balance.exchanged_to("DKK") # => Money.new(120, "DKK")
- # customer.balance > Money.new(10) # => true
- # customer.balance == Money.new(20) # => true
- # customer.balance < Money.new(5) # => false
- #
- # Value objects can also be composed of multiple attributes, such as the case of Address. The order of the mappings will
- # determine the order of the parameters. Example:
- #
- # customer.address_street = "Hyancintvej"
- # customer.address_city = "Copenhagen"
- # customer.address # => Address.new("Hyancintvej", "Copenhagen")
- # customer.address = Address.new("May Street", "Chicago")
- # customer.address_street # => "May Street"
- # customer.address_city # => "Chicago"
- #
- # == Writing value objects
- #
- # Value objects are immutable and interchangeable objects that represent a given value, such as a +Money+ object representing
- # $5. Two +Money+ objects both representing $5 should be equal (through methods such as == and <=> from +Comparable+ if ranking
- # makes sense). This is unlike entity objects where equality is determined by identity. An entity class such as +Customer+ can
- # easily have two different objects that both have an address on Hyancintvej. Entity identity is determined by object or
- # relational unique identifiers (such as primary keys). Normal <tt>ActiveRecord::Base</tt> classes are entity objects.
- #
- # It's also important to treat the value objects as immutable. Don't allow the +Money+ object to have its amount changed after
- # creation. Create a new +Money+ object with the new value instead. This is exemplified by the <tt>Money#exchanged_to</tt> method that
- # returns a new value object instead of changing its own values. Active Record won't persist value objects that have been
- # changed through means other than the writer method.
- #
- # The immutable requirement is enforced by Active Record by freezing any object assigned as a value object. Attempting to
- # change it afterwards will result in a <tt>TypeError</tt>.
- #
- # Read more about value objects on http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?ValueObject and on the dangers of not keeping value objects
- # immutable on http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?ValueObjectsShouldBeImmutable
- module ClassMethods
- # Adds reader and writer methods for manipulating a value object:
- # <tt>composed_of :address</tt> adds <tt>address</tt> and <tt>address=(new_address)</tt> methods.
- #
- # Options are:
- # * <tt>:class_name</tt> - specify the class name of the association. Use it only if that name can't be inferred
- # from the part id. So <tt>composed_of :address</tt> will by default be linked to the +Address+ class, but
- # if the real class name is +CompanyAddress+, you'll have to specify it with this option.
- # * <tt>:mapping</tt> - specifies a number of mapping arrays (attribute, parameter) that bind an attribute name
- # to a constructor parameter on the value class.
- # * <tt>:allow_nil</tt> - specifies that the aggregate object will not be instantiated when all mapped
- # attributes are +nil+. Setting the aggregate class to +nil+ has the effect of writing +nil+ to all mapped attributes.
- # This defaults to +false+.
- #
- # An optional block can be passed to convert the argument that is passed to the writer method into an instance of
- # <tt>:class_name</tt>. The block will only be called if the argument is not already an instance of <tt>:class_name</tt>.
- #
- # Option examples:
- # composed_of :temperature, :mapping => %w(reading celsius)
- # composed_of(:balance, :class_name => "Money", :mapping => %w(balance amount)) {|balance| balance.to_money }
- # composed_of :address, :mapping => [ %w(address_street street), %w(address_city city) ]
- # composed_of :gps_location
- # composed_of :gps_location, :allow_nil => true
