Method: Contentful::Management::Resource::ClassMethods#property

Defined in:
lib/contentful/management/resource.rb

#property(name, property_class = nil) ⇒ Object

Defines which properties of a resource your class expects Define them in :camelCase, they will be available as #snake_cased methods

You can pass in a second “type” argument:

  • If it is a class, it will be initialized for the property

  • Symbols are looked up in the COERCION constant for a lambda that defines a type conversion to apply

Note: This second argument is not meant for contentful sub-resources, but for structured objects (like locales in a space) Sub-resources are handled by the resource builder
