## Proxy Support
|
||||
|
||||
CouchDB makes it really easy to create databases on the fly, so easy in fact that it is perfectly
|
||||
feasable to have one database per user or per company or per whatever makes sense to split into
|
||||
its own individual database. CouchRest Model now makes it really easy to support this scenario
|
||||
using the proxy methods. Here's a quick example:
|
||||
|
||||
# Define a master company class, its children should be in their own DB
|
||||
class Company < CouchRest::Model::Base
|
||||
use_database COUCHDB_DATABASE
|
||||
property :name
|
||||
property :slug
|
||||
|
||||
proxy_for :invoices
|
||||
|
||||
def proxy_database
|
||||
@proxy_database ||= COUCHDB_SERVER.database!("project_#{slug}")
|
||||
end
|
||||
end
|
||||
|
||||
# Invoices belong to a company
|
||||
class Invoice < CouchRest::Model::Base
|
||||
property :date
|
||||
property :total
|
||||
|
||||
proxied_by :company
|
||||
|
||||
design do
|
||||
view :by_date
|
||||
end
|
||||
end
|
||||
|
||||
By setting up our models like this, the invoices should be accessed via a company object:
|
||||
|
||||
company = Company.first
|
||||
company.invoices.new # build a new invoice
|
||||
company.invoices.by_date.first # find company's first invoice by date
|
||||
|
||||
Internally, all requests for invoices are passed through a model proxy. Aside from the
|
||||
basic methods and views, it also ensures that some of the more complex queries are supported
|
||||
such as validating for uniqueness and associations.
