ruby on rails - Adding a Computed Attribute to ActiveResource Resource -
what i'm trying add attribute activeresource resource computer based on other attributes created servers response.
further complicating things attributes computation depends on part of has_many association has_many: items.
what i'd happen when u = user.find(123) called items retrieved , attribute added user based on computation, example u.blue_item_count.
the new attribute need appear when object serialized xml or json. instance u serialize {"id":1, "name":"bob", "blue_item_count":21 }.
thanks
just define method on user
object uses items
association. example:
class user < activerecord::base has_many :items def blue_item_count items.each |item| ... end end end
