#smooth(api = :default) ⇒ Object

Allows for using the current_user making an API request as the source of all queries, and commands run against Smooth resources.

Example:

current_user.smooth.query("books.mine", published_before: 2014)

Piping all queries to the Smooth Resources through the same interface makes implementing a declarative, role based access control policy pretty easy.

You could even add the following methods to all of your ApplicationController

Example:

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base

def run_query *args, &block
  current_user.smooth.send(:query, *args, &block)
end

def run_command *args, &block
  current_user.smooth.send(:run_command, *args, &block)
end

end

class BooksController < ApplicationController

def index
  render :json => run_query("books", params)
end

end
