EmpanadaRecord

Our just-for-fun implementation of Active Record pattern

Our rails inspired API:

class Product < EmpanadaRecord::Base
  attr_accessor :id, :name

  #...
end

Product.all             # retrieves all products in DB
Product.find(99)        # retrieve a product with ID=99

Fork and grow EmpanadaRecord. Pull Requests are welcome

Some ideas:

• Implement all, count, first, last, where, etc
• Implement find_by_attribute (dynamic attributes)
• Add support for multiple DB adapters (see Adapter pattern)
• Improve DB setup/teardown in tests
