Column Prefix

Extends ActiveResource with column prefix option. Column Prefix will then alias all columns with the same column name, minus the prefix.

Please note that if an unprefixed name would override an existing attribute or method it will not be aliased. However, you can still access the attribute via its prefixed version.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'column_prefix'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install column_prefix

Usage

In your model, declare the column_prefix you would like to alias. For the prefix "entry_":

class Entry < ActiveRecord::Base
  column_prefix "entry_"
end

You can then access attributes via their simpler name. For example, the column "entry_title" can be accessed via e.title or e.entry_title (where e is an instance of Entry).
