EventHooks

EventHooks enhances Ruby classes to allow adding pre-conditions to method calls (events). If the pre-conditions method returns false the event method will not run. It can be used on ActiveRecord subclasses to validate some conditions only when a certain event occurs.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'event_hooks'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install event_hooks

Usage

Within the class that you want to hook the pre-condition to simply write:

  hook_before :event, :hook

where:

• event is the name of a method that you must define prior to the hook_before.
• hook is the name of a method that will be run before the call to event.

class AnyClass
    def submit
      # do something
    end
    hook_before :submit, :submit_preconditions

  def submit_preconditions
      am_i_ready?
  end
end
