Acts As Versionable¶ ↑

Why?¶ ↑

Since I found no good plugins/gems I decided to write my own.

 * acts_as_versioned does not support current rails with dirty attribute handling
 * version_fu does not provide easy to use sintax

Goals?¶ ↑

* Tracking the versions.
* Applying diffs to the versions of to the specific instances of the model.
* Reverting bitween versions.
* Will give you possibility track changes on only required fields of your model.

Installation¶ ↑

Simply run `script/plugin install git://github.com/xedin/acts_as_versionable.git`

Example¶ ↑

article = Article.create(:title => 'title', :body => 'body')
article.version => 1

article.title = 'new title'
article.save => true
article.version => 2
article.versions => Array(2)
article.revert_to(1) => #<Article ...>

article.diff_with_version(2) # diff between versions is possible
article.diff(Article.new(:title => ...)) # diff by instance
