table_name_to_namespaced_model(table_name) click to toggle source

Tries to find the model class corresponding to specified table name. Takes into account that the model can be defined in a namespace. Searches only up to one level deep - won’t find models nested in two or more modules.

Note that if we allow namespaces, the conversion can be ambiguous, i.e. if the table is named “aa_bb_cc” and AaBbCc, Aa::BbCc and AaBb::Cc are all defined there’s no absolute rule that tells us which one to use. This method prefers the less nested one and, if there are two at the same level, the one with shorter module name.

# File lib/gettext_i18n_rails/model_attributes_finder.rb, line 75
def table_name_to_namespaced_model(table_name)
  # First assume that there are no namespaces
  model = to_class(table_name.singularize.camelcase)
  return model if model != nil

  # If you were wrong, assume that the model is in a namespace.
  # Iterate over the underscores and try to substitute each of them
  # for a slash that camelcase() replaces with the scope operator (::).
  underscore_position = table_name.index('_')
  while underscore_position != nil
    namespaced_table_name = table_name.dup
    namespaced_table_name[underscore_position] = '/'
    model = to_class(namespaced_table_name.singularize.camelcase)
    return model if model != nil

    underscore_position = table_name.index('_', underscore_position + 1)
  end

  # The model either is not defined or is buried more than one level
  # deep in a module hierarchy
  return nil
end
to_class(name) click to toggle source

Checks if there is a class of specified name and if so, returns the class object. Otherwise returns nil.

# File lib/gettext_i18n_rails/model_attributes_finder.rb, line 100
def to_class(name)
  # I wanted to use Module.const_defined?() here to avoid relying
  # on exceptions for normal program flow but it's of no use.
  # If class autoloading is enabled, the constant may be undefined
  # but turn out to be present when we actually try to use it.
  begin
    constant = name.constantize
  rescue NameError
    return nil
  end

  return constant.is_a?(Class) ? constant : nil
