ActiveResource探究（二）－－多用户的客户端

在前面的教程（ActiveResource探究（一））中，在服务器端每个用户都很直接，但是处理多用户的时候就会遇到麻烦，假如我有两个servers，一个处理REAST service，另一个处理html文件。但是ActiveResource假设认证实在类的层面上处理。这个时候ruby的元编程思想可以解决问题！

 

使用前面的例子，我扩展客户端如下：

require 'activeresource'

module Sample
  module Client
    class API
      #
      # Creates a module that serves as an ActiveResource
      # client for the specified user
      #
      def self.create_api(login = nil, password = nil)
        # specify the site.  Default to no credentials
        @url_base = "http://localhost:3000"
        @url_base = "http://#{login}:#{password}@localhost:3000" if login
        # build a module name.  This assumes that logins are unique.
        # it also assumes they're valid ruby module names when capitalized
        @module = login ? login.capitalize : "Default"
        class_eval <<-"end_eval",__FILE__, __LINE__
        module #{@module}
          class Post < ActiveResource::Base
            self.site = "#{@url_base}"
          end
          class Comment < ActiveResource::Base
            self.site = "#{@url_base}/posts/:post_id"
          end
          # return the module, not the last site String
          self
        end
        end_eval
      end
    end
  end
end

 

 

这次允许我们为特定的用户创建特定的api，这样多个用户都可以链接到rest service了，来看看吧：

>> require 'ares_sample_client'
=> ["Sample"]
>> api = Sample::Client::API.create_api
=> Sample::Client::API::Default
>> p = api::Post.find(1)
=> #<Sample::Client::API::Default::Post:0xb715af74 @attributes={"updated_at"=>Wed Jan 09 02:36:34 UTC 2008, "id"=>1, "content"=>"The first post", "user_id"=>1, "created_at"=>Wed Jan 09 02:36:34 UTC 2008}, @prefix_options={}>
>> p = api::Post.create(:content => "should fail")
