Preferential

Preferential helps take the tedium out of adding preferences to your rails application.

usage

gem 'preferential', :git => "git://github.com/ovenbits-ingredients/preferential.git"

class AddPreferencesToUser < ActiveRecord::Migration
  def change
    add_column :users, :user_preferences, :string
  end
end

Class User
  include Preferential
  pref_accessible :receive_account_email
end

u = User.new
u.receive_account_email = true
u.save

Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet
Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it
Fork the project
Start a feature/bugfix branch
Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution
Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
