SW2 Sync: SW2 recruitment software website integrations

This is a project aimed at providing synchronisation between Jobs on a local Rails application and those provided by a remote XML feed from SW2 software.

This is a work in progress, so there are no guarantees!

Installation

Add the gem to your Gemfile and run bundle install.

be rails g migration AddReferenceToJob reference
be rails g migration AddPublishedToJob published:boolean

You'll need to edit the generated migrations to ensure that the published column cannot be null and has a default value of true.

Require the gem library, and include the RemoteJobs module in the Model.

require 'sw2-sync'
                  
class Model < ActiveRecord::Base
  include RemoteJobs

Make sure to add the :reference attribute to attr_accessible statement in your Model so that it can be mass assigned when creating and updating Jobs.

You'll need a couple of new methods in your Model, these may be moved into the module in due course.

def self.find_remotely_referenced_jobs
  Model.where("reference != ?", '')
end

def unpublish
  self.published = false
  self.save
end

At this point it should be working when invoked, but remember... no guarantees.

Model.sync_with('The remote source url of your choice')

I intend to use a Rake task to invoke this command, and combine it with a Cron job.

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. I'll decide whether I want to include it.
