Overview

Instead of monkey patching Kernel or trying to be clever, it's best to confine all the helper methods in a Utils module.

Class Method Details

.const(context, name) ⇒ Object

Used by: attribute, counter, set, reference, collection.

Employed as a solution to avoid NameError problems when trying to load models referring to other models not yet loaded.

Example:

class Comment < Ohm::Model
reference :user, User # NameError undefined constant User.
end

# Instead of relying on some clever `const_missing` hack, we can
# simply use a symbol or a string.

class Comment < Ohm::Model
reference :user, :User
reference :post, "Post"
end
