Overview

Whenever a collection from a has_many relationship is accessed, an instance of this class is returned. This instance wraps the Array of instances in the collection with an extra build method, which allows new instances to be built on the collection with the correct properties.

In practice, instances of this class behave exactly like an Array.

def all

end

#build(attrs = {}) ⇒ Object

JIRA::Resource::Comment.new(issue.client,
                            :attrs => attrs,
                            :issue => issue)

def build(attrs = {})
  resource = target_class.new(parent.client, :attrs => attrs, parent.to_sym => parent)
  collection << resource
  resource
