Rails compatible method logging. Use this to log all calls to instance methods of a class to the log.

gistfile1.rb

Model.new.foo

method_logger.rb

module MethodLogger
  def self.included(base)
    methods = base.instance_methods(false) + base.private_instance_methods(false)
    base.class_eval do
      methods.each do |method_name|
        original_method = instance_method(method_name)
        define_method(method_name) do |*args, &block|
          Rails.logger.info "-> #{base}##{method_name}(#{args.inspect})"
          return_value = original_method.bind(self).call(*args, &block)
          Rails.logger.info "<- #{base}##{method_name} #=> #{return_value.inspect}"
          return_value
        end
      end
    end
  end
end

model.rb

class Model
  include MethodLogging

  def foo
    "bar"
  end
end

rails.log

-> foo([])
<- foo #=> "bar"

Doesn't self.included only know about the methods above it? Wouldn't it have to be included at the bottom of model.rb for it to see foo?
