Overview

ActiveDecorator is a powerful view helper designed for Ruby on Rails applications, compatible with Rails 4 through 7. This gem embraces object-oriented principles, allowing developers to seamlessly integrate decorators into their models and views. By keeping helpers and views organized and clean, ActiveDecorator enhances the maintainability of your Rails application and streamlines the rendering of decorated ActiveRecord models.

Whether you’re a seasoned Rails developer or just starting out, ActiveDecorator offers a straightforward solution to improve the structure of your views. It simplifies the process of using decorators, ensuring that your helpers are always in the right context while fostering best practices.

Features

  • Automatic Mixing: The decorator module is automatically mixed into the corresponding model when rendering models or collections from controllers to views, ensuring effortless integration.
  • Contextual Execution: The decorator operates within the context of the model, allowing direct access to attributes and methods from the decorator module.
  • ActionView Helpers: Since decorators function as helpers, you can easily invoke any ActionView helper methods like content_tag or link_to, enhancing your view layer's functionality.
  • Support for Multiple Versions: Compatible with Ruby versions 2.1 to 3.3 and Rails versions 4.2 to 7.1, ensuring broad usability across various projects.
  • Flexible ORM Support: Works seamlessly with ActiveRecord, ActiveResource, and any ORM that utilizes Ruby objects, making it versatile for different Ruby on Rails applications.
  • Simple Configuration: Quickly create decorator modules for each ActiveRecord model without altering existing code, making implementation quick and hassle-free.
  • Testing Made Easy: You can easily test your decorators with your preferred testing framework, maintaining high code quality in your application.
  • Customization Options: Configure the decorator naming convention in your initializer to adapt it to your project's specific requirements.
