ruby on rails - Can ActiveResource models integrate with ActiveRecord models? -

I am working on a rail app, through an active resource facility of rail, an authentication system for other rail applications Will work as.

The authentication app has an ActiveRecord model called a user . The customer app has an active processing model called user . I know that in the Client app I can do stuff like user.save and it will perform a one-time operation using XML on HTTP.

But if I want to put in my customer's app user model is: contact or something like this ( contact ) Being an ActiveRecord model in the app)?

Is it possible

( I saw that one was asked, but there were not many responses.)

short answer: no. The classes included in has_many , related_to , has_and_belongs_to_many live in ActiveRecord and the association creates SQL queries for working.

She said, you can make such a union, you just have to write your own way, that question was answered up-vote on what was connected to you.

Therefore, add a column to your contact model which is user_id or whatever you want your User.find ActiveResource model and you are thus Can be part of the contract:

  class users & lt; ActiveResource :: Base # boilerplate ActiveResource url stuff def contact contact. Context (: All ,: conditions => gt; {user_id = & gt; self.id}) and end class contact & lt; ActiveRecord :: Modal DIF User User.find_by_user_id (self.user_id) End end  

Very high you can get from has_many for free, but its The essence is this
