My issues with Modules

In researching topics for RailsCasts I often read code in Rails and other gems. This is a great exercise to do. Not only will you pick up some coding tips, but it can help you better understand what makes code readable.

A common practice to organize code in gems is to divide it into modules. When this is done extensively I find it becomes very difficult to read. Before I explain further, a quick detour on instance_eval.

You can find instance_eval used in many DSLs: from routes to state machines. Here's an example from Thinking Sphinx.

class Article < ActiveRecord::Base

module Abilities
  def self.ability_for(user)
    if user.admin?
      AdminAbility.new(user)
    else user
      MemberAbility.new(user)
    else
      GuestAbility.new
    end
  end

# run with: god -c /path/to/config.god [add -D if you want to not-deamonize god] 
# This is the actual config file used to keep the delayed_job running 

APPLICATION_ROOT = "/var/www/application"
RAILS_ENV = "production"

God.watch do |w| 
  w.name = "delayed_job_production"
  w.interval = 15.seconds 
  w.start = "/bin/bash -c 'cd #{APPLICATION_ROOT}/current; /usr/bin/env RAILS_ENV=#{RAILS_ENV} #{APPLICATION_ROOT}/current/script/delayed_job start > /tmp/delay_job.out'"
