Adds basic ActiveRecord like associations to static data.

This has been extracted from ProjectsDB and Hotleads, see the BudgetCategory, Project and ArchiveReason, Lead classes respectively for examples.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'static_association'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install static_association

Create your static association class:

class Days
  include StaticAssociation

  attr_accessor :name

  record id: 0 do
    self.name = :monday
  end
end

Calling record will allow you to create an instance of this static model, a unique id is mandatory. The newly created object is yielded to the passed block.

The Days class will gain an all and find method.

Currently just a 'belongs to' association can be created. This behaviour can be mixed into an ActiveRecord model:

belongs_to_static :day

This assumes your model has a field day_id.
