Feature proposal: Decorate associations about draper

[nfm]

Agreed, this would be a great feature.

I've taken a first pass attempt at solving this. Check out #85

[tarasevich]

Still this method needs to be fixed to support lazy loading from DB of associations

  def self.decorate(input, context = {})
    input.respond_to?(:each) ? Draper::DecoratedEnumerableProxy.new(input, self, context) : new(input, context)
  end

[michaelfairley]

Fixed.

What do you think about taking an array of association symbols to decorate, and iterating over them?

def self.decorates_association(*association_symbols)

Then you'd end up with:

decorates_associations :posts, :images, :links

Rather than:

decorates_associations :posts
decorates_associations :images
decorates_associations :links

I guess it depends on whether there's the possibility of accepting options for decorating associations or not.

[michaelfairley]

Done. There's now decorates_association which takes one symbol, and decorates_associations which takes multiple.

awesome work

Since this is basically a dup of pull #85, and it's got code, I'm closing it here.
