DataMapper HEAD support

Reported by Brian Rose | March 2nd, 2008 @ 07:58 AM | in 1.0

Wanting to experiment with the extremely bleeding edge version of DataMapper, I wired up merb_datamapper to work (mostly).

DataMapper HEAD is available via git at:

http://github.com/sam/dm/tree/ma...

merb_datamapper is available in this merb_plugins fork:

http://github.com/heimidal/merb-...

A few gotchas (since this is extremely bleeding edge):

DM::Base appears to have been merged with DM::Database into DM::Repository.

DM::Persistence has been replaced by DM::Persistable.

validates_length_of appears to be broken as of 2/2/08.

You cannot inherit from DM::Repository. (I am not sure what the plan for that class is and haven't had a chance to look into the problem.) You must include DataMapper::Persistable in your models.

Did the same thing and added a patch to merb_datamapper in #58 as this seems to be where they are going.

Not sure how I missed that - sorry.
Are you aware of whether including DM::Persistable or inheriting from DM::Model is preferred? We should be sure that the preferred method is used in the model template.
Nick DeMonner March 2nd, 2008 @ 08:47 AM
DM::Model simply has a single method (self.inherited) which sends an include for DM::Persistable, so I think inheriting from DM::Model is the way they want it.

I've updated the fork at http://github.com/heimidal/merb-... to reflect this change.

I will apply these patches once dm-core 0.9 is ready for public consumption it's still a bit early to have the opfficial plugin work with dm HEAD

Is it time to switch to DM 0.9?

Isn't this handled by the dm folks now? The ticket can probably be closed.

+1 on closing this
