Class Method Details

.const_missing(name) ⇒ Object

Dynamically creates class to access the ERP API

Class and doctype should be defined in Core::Doctypes.supported

If defined, you can call methods ‘create’, ‘update’, ‘destroy’ and ‘find’

For e.g NextErpBridge::Entity::Journal.create(attrs) assuming Journal is defined in Core::Doctypes.supported

If basic CRUD is not enough on the class(Journal in this case) you can create a new class of inside the Entity module and inherit the base class and define a doctype on it and other methods needed

module NextErpBridge

module Entity
  class Journal < Base
    @doctype = 'Journal%20Entry'
    def some_custom_method
    end
  end
end

end
