/sets_uuid

Adds declarative uuid attribute initialization to models

Primary LanguageRubyMIT LicenseMIT

sets_uuid

Allows you to declaratively initialize UUID columns in your ActiveRecords.

class MyModel < ActiveRecord::Base
  sets_uuid :before_create, :guid => :compact
end

m = MyModel.create!
m.guid # => "a80cca5469254331a2f7df23da2b837f"

This gem requires the simple_uuid gem. The reason I picked this library instead of the classic uuid gem is because the later does not use a state file, which I find annoying in some situations.

Note on Patches/Pull Requests

  • Fork the project.

  • Make your feature addition or bug fix.

  • Add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.

  • Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but

    bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
  • Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
