end

#getter(name, metadata) ⇒ Class

Defines the getter for the relation. Nothing too special here: just return the instance variable for the relation if it exists or build the thing.

Examples:

Set up the getter for the relation.

Person.getter("addresses", metadata)

Parameters:

  • name (String, Symbol) —

    The name of the relation.

  re_define_method(name) do |reload = false|
    value = get_relation(name, metadata, nil, reload)
    if value.nil? && metadata.autobuilding? && !without_autobuild?
      value = send("build_#{name}")
    end
    value
  end
  self
end

#ids_getter(name, metadata) ⇒ Class

Defines the getter for the ids of documents in the relation. Should be specify only for referenced many relations.

Examples:

Set up the ids getter for the relation.

Person.ids_getter("addresses", metadata)

Parameters:

  • name (String, Symbol) —

    The name of the relation.

Returns:

  • (Class) —

    The class being set up.

  ids_method = "#{name.to_s.singularize}_ids"
  re_define_method(ids_method) do
    send(name).only(:id).map(&:id)
  end
  self
end

#ids_setter(name, metadata) ⇒ Object

Defines the setter method that allows you to set documents in this relation by their ids. The defined setter, finds documents with given ids and invokes regular relation setter with found documents. Ids setters should be defined only for referenced many relations.

@param [ String, Symbol ] name The name of the relation.
@param [ Metadata ] metadata The metadata for the relation.

@return [ Class ] The class being set up.

Examples:

Set up the id_setter for the relation.

Person.ids_setter("addesses", metadata)

  re_define_method(ids_method) do |ids|
    send(metadata.setter, metadata.klass.find(ids.reject(&:blank?)))
  end
  self
end

#setter(name, metadata) ⇒ Class

Defines the setter for the relation. This does a few things based on some conditions. If there is an existing association, a target substitution will take place, otherwise a new relation will be created with the supplied target.

Examples:

Set up the setter for the relation.

Person.setter("addresses", metadata)

Parameters:

  • name (String, Symbol) —

    The name of the relation.

  • metadata (Metadata) —

    The metadata for the relation.

Returns:

  • (Class) —

    The class being set up.
