= Alternatives

If you are looking for an alternative to AASM, I would highly suggest transitions: http://github.com/qoobaa/transitions

= AASM - Ruby state machines
|
|
|
|
This package contains AASM, a library for adding finite state machines to Ruby classes.
|
|
|
|
AASM started as the acts_as_state_machine plugin but has evolved into a more generic library that no longer targets only ActiveRecord models.
|
|
|
|
AASM has the following features:
|
|
|
|
* States
|
|
* Machines
|
|
* Events
|
|
* Transitions
|
|
|
|
== New Callbacks
|
|
|
|
The callback chain & order on a successful event looks like:
|
|
|
|
oldstate:exit*
|
|
event:before
|
|
__find transition, if possible__
|
|
transition:on_transition*
|
|
oldstate:before_exit
|
|
newstate:before_enter
|
|
newstate:enter*
|
|
__update state__
|
|
event:success*
|
|
oldstate:after_exit
|
|
newstate:after_enter
|
|
event:after
|
|
obj:aasm_event_fired*
|
|
|
|
(*) marks old callbacks
|
|
|
|
|
|
== Download
|
|
|
|
The latest AASM can currently be pulled from the git repository on github.
|
|
|

|
|
% sudo gem install rubyist-aasm
|

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
== Simple Example
|
|
|
|
Here's a quick example highlighting some of the features.
|
|
|
|
class Conversation
|
|
include AASM
|
|
|
|
aasm_column :current_state # defaults to aasm_state
|
|
|
|
aasm_initial_state :unread
|
|
|
|
aasm_state :unread
|
|
aasm_state :read
|
|
aasm_state :closed
|
|
|
|
|
|
aasm_event :view do
|
|
transitions :to => :read, :from => [:unread]
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
aasm_event :close do
|
|
transitions :to => :closed, :from => [:read, :unread]
|
|
end
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
== A Slightly More Complex Example
|
|
|
|
This example uses a few of the more complex features available.
|
|
|
|
class Relationship
|
|
include AASM
|
|
|
|
aasm_column :status
|
|
|
|
aasm_initial_state Proc.new { |relationship| relationship.strictly_for_fun? ? :intimate : :dating }
|
|
|
|
aasm_state :dating, :enter => :make_happy, :exit => :make_depressed
|
|
aasm_state :intimate, :enter => :make_very_happy, :exit => :never_speak_again
|
|
aasm_state :married, :enter => :give_up_intimacy, :exit => :buy_exotic_car_and_wear_a_combover
|
|
|
|
aasm_event :get_intimate do
|
|
transitions :to => :intimate, :from => [:dating], :guard => :drunk?
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
aasm_event :get_married do
|
|
transitions :to => :married, :from => [:dating, :intimate], :guard => :willing_to_give_up_manhood?
|
|
end
|
|
|
|
def strictly_for_fun?; end
|
|
def drunk?; end
|
|
def willing_to_give_up_manhood?; end
|
|
def make_happy; end
|
|
def make_depressed; end
|
|
def make_very_happy; end
|
|
def never_speak_again; end
|
|
def give_up_intimacy; end
|
|
def buy_exotic_car_and_wear_a_combover; end
|
|
end
|
