Re: Re: RESTful mixin, mixin repo?

This is what I though. Equipment seems pretty complicated but it is
not really. What's complicated is the extension mechanism that was
created to support many use cases. If you overlook that, the rest is
pretty simple.

Basically, to create a Camping equipment, you do the following :

module YourExtension
  extend Equipment # installs the hooks
  depends_on OtherExtension # make sure the other extension is included first

  # Here you mimic your app's structure. class methods are defined
with a module
  # called like your constant + ClassMethods. Like ControllersClassMethods.

  module Controllers # controllers will get copied over to your app
    class Woot # R is not available
    end
  end

  module Helpers # new helper
    def hello
    end
  end

  module CClassMethods # class methods for your app
    def create  # the create method is chained
      super
      # do something
    end
  end

end

in your app :

require 'equipment'
Camping.goes :YourApp
module YourApp
  equip YourExtension
end

Maybe I should put that more in form an make a tutorial.
