Usage

Suppose we have AR-model Order with the state machine specified by enum_machine

app/models/order.rb

class Order < ActiveRecord::Base
  enum_machine :state, %w[s0 s1 s2 s3 s3.1 s3.2 s4 s4.1 s4.2 s5 s6 s6.1 s6.2 s7 s8 s9 s10 s11] do
    transitions(
      nil    => %w[s0],
      's0'   => %w[s1],
      's1'   => %w[s2],
      's2'   => %w[s3],
      's3'   => %w[s3.1 s3.2 s4],
      's3.1' => %w[s1],
      's3.2' => %w[s1],
      's4'   => %w[s4.1 s4.2 s5],
      's4.1' => %w[s2],
      's4.2' => %w[s2],
      's5'   => %w[s6.1 s6.2],
      's6.2' => %w[s7],
      's6.1' => %w[s8],
      's8'   => %w[s9],
      's9'   => %w[s10],
      's7'   => %w[s11],
      's10'  => %w[s11],
    )
  end
end

The gem allows to get a visual representation of the state's graph. Model name Order and attribute constant STATE should be defined in rake task to render image.

$ bundle exec rake enum_machine:vis[Order::STATE]

You will see:
