if i understand you correctly, you want to augment the User model with
some extra relationships? If thats the case, then something like the
following might help you:
I have a model called “Person”, that looks something like this:
app/models/person.rb:
class Person < User
has_many :settings, :class_name => “UserSetting” do
def default_users_acl_name
acl_name = find_by_property(“DefaultACL”).value
end
end
end
The “User” class comes from
vendor/plugins/login_engine/app/models/user.rb
Then, whenever i want to use my extra functionality to the User model i
just go via People instead:
p = Person.find_by_login(“admin”)
p.settings
[…]
p = Person.find(1)
etc, etc.
This way, i can let user/login engine do all its clever stuff, but i
dont have to make any changes to that code base
does that help?
