Overview

Ruby (the language) has no support for multiple inheritance. Instead, it uses module to extend classes outside of the class hierarchy.

TaskService are the equivalent concept in the world of task models. They are a limited for of task models, which can be used to represent that certain task models have multiple functions.

For instance,

task_service "CameraDriver" do
   # CameraDriver is an abstract model used to represent that some tasks
   # are providing the services of cameras. They can be used to tag tasks
   # that belong to different class hirerachies.
   # 
   # One can set up arguments on TaskService the same way than class models:
   argument :camera_name
   argument :aperture
   argument :aperture
end

FirewireDriver.provides CameraDriver
# FirewireDriver can now be used in relationships where CameraDriver was
# needed
