# because it's making decisions based on the return value of an object it
# doesn't own.

Accessing routes outside controllers

Accessing the router outside of the controller context can be a real pain especially if you need access to _url helpers. It is even more difficult if you want to pass the router as an argument to a method or class. We had come up with a few different solutions but so far this has been the most reliable.

Accessing the routes in a class

ENV['SOME_URL'] = 'http://my.url.com'

class MyClassThatHasAccessToRoutes

# Start and stop maintenance mode for supporter application.

# The maintenance page is stored with the application in version control and
# when enabled will be copied to a location known by Apache so it can be
# served instead of the application.

# Invites registrants who want to fundraise via Everyday Hero.

# example:
#   CreateIndividualPageInvitationService.from_order order

# Only invites registrations who have selected to fundraise ignoring the

# Conditional GET Support for a collection of ActiveRecord objects
#
# Useful in controllers when you want to support conditional get in
# index actions.
#
# example:
#   class PostsController
#     def index
#       if stale?(conditional_get_collection)
#         respond_with collection

When building highly decoupled classes I often run into the problem of how to piece it all together. I have an understanding of how each piece is supposed to interact but I'm not sure how the functionality should co-exist. I have included some sample code below.

coop

class Page < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_attached_file :image
end

class DelayedAttachment
  attr_reader :attachment

  def initialize attachment
    @attachment = attachment
  end
