Instance Method Details

#mattr_accessor(*syms) ⇒ Object

Extends the module object with module and instance accessors for class attributes, just like the native attr* accessors for instance attributes.

module AppConfiguration
  mattr_accessor :google_api_key
  self.google_api_key = "123456789"

  mattr_accessor :paypal_url
  self.paypal_url = "www.sandbox.paypal.com"
end

AppConfiguration.google_api_key = "overriding the api key!"

To opt out of the instance writer method, pass :instance_writer => false. To opt out of the instance reader method, pass :instance_reader => false. To opt out of both instance methods, pass :instance_accessor => false.
