Using Lesmok

Drop the Base...

Make any class "meltable" quickly:

class FilmFanatic::Movie
  include ::Lesmok::Acid::Meltable
end

... and you can start using it in your Liquid templates immediately.

NOTE: All methods are now delegated (ACID - All Content Is Delegated), so you don't want to do this if your liquid templates are "untrustworthy" or your object has potentially destructive methods.

Control the Beat...

The Lesmok::Acid::Drop liquid-drop class is used by default unless you:

specify a to_liquid method explicitly in your class,
override liquify_drop_klass to return your preferred sub-class of Liquid::Drop,
or create an adjacent *Drop class with same naming as your model class.

class FilmFanatic::MovieDrop < ::Lesmok::Acid::Drop    # Quick-n-dirty start.
  alias :movie :source_object                          # For readability.
  def rave                                             # Start adding presenter methods you need.
    "OMG! #{movie.title} is so awesome!"
  end
end

As you clean up, you may want to have more explicit drop control and migrate away from using Acid Drop:

class FilmFanatic::MovieDrop < ::Liquid::Drop
  include ::Lesmok::Acid::Droppable        # To keep compatible with Acid::Drop
  alias :movie :source_object
end

Keep your cache

Given that your object has a cache key, you can use the cached_include tag in your liquid templates:

class FilmFanatic::Movie
  include ::Lesmok::Acid::Meltable
  def cache_key
    "fantastic-movie-#{self.imdb_id}"
  end
end

Then from your template:

{% cached_include 'my/movie/reviews/liquid/template' for { cache_on: fantastic_movie } %}

Installation

Get tha gem...

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

$ bundle
