Protocolize

Generate protocol number for new records, tickets, issues, documents, and everything you need to identify.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'protocolize'

Then install the dependencies:

bundle

Copy the migration to project:

rails g protocolize:install

Create the protocols table:

rake db:migrate

Test

rspec spec

Usage

Include module to app/models/application_record.rb:

class ApplicationRecord < ActiveRecord::Base
  include Protocolize::ActsAsProtocolable

  self.abstract_class = true
end

Set your model to act as protocolable associating with the protocol:

class MyModel < ApplicationRecord
  acts_as_protocolable
end

That's it! Everytime the model configured to act as protocolable was created a protocol will be created together.
