Feature toggles made easy.

Non rails usage

Creating two enviroments:

production = Envie.production.with(:oauth)
development = production.derive.with(:openid)

And now making available code for specific features

if Envie.has?(:oauth)
  # code that will run only if oauth is available
end

if Envie.has?(:openid)
  # code that will run only if openid is available
end

There's a shorthand as well

if Envie.oauth?
  # code that will run only if oauth is available
end

Caveat: this won't work with some names as the following methods are already defined:

:has?, :include?, :const_defined?, :class_variable_defined?, :method_defined?, :public_method_defined?, :private_method_defined?, :protected_method_defined?, :autoload?, :anonymous?, :reachable?, :qualified_const_defined?, :duplicable?, :traced?, :trace_disabled?, :any_unrecognized_keys?, :newrelic_method_exists?, :traced_method_exists?, :in?, :blank?, :present?, :acts_like?, :html_safe?, :is_haml?, :method_exists?, :nil?, :eql?, :tainted?, :untrusted?, :frozen?, :instance_variable_defined?, :instance_of?, :kind_of?, :is_a?, :respond_to?, :respond_to_missing?, :equal?

Code is attached to features, not enviroments, so one can easily move the feature from one place to another without having to "grep" and find all its usage.

Rails usage

Set up your enviroment at enviroment.rb

your definitions must go between application and initilization, e.g.:

require File.expand_path('../application', __FILE__)


# setup feature toggles
Envie.production

Envie.development.with(:geewiz)

#pick a default
Envie.use :development

# Initialize the rails application
Solmarket::Application.initialize!

then in environments/production.rb

Envie.use(:production)

now just use the features everywhere: in your routes, controllers and erb (or haml) templates.

We are expecting contributions that automatically define enviroments by reading an active record table.

Installing

gem install envie

Contributing to envie

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.
