Lately I’ve been really going back and forth between using tools like resourcelogic, inherited_resources, resource_controller, etc. And I gave each one of these libraries a more than fair shot. I’ve used all of them extensively, that’s the whole reason I created resourcelogic to begin with. I really liked resource_controller, so much that I decided to take it and kind of make my own version called resourcelogic. I ended up changing it quite a bit, and it worked out well, but it got out of hand. So I’m going to address why I advise against using libraries like this:

I recently released the beta to a library I have been working on: Resourcelogic.
I’m really excited to release this because it’s my favorite “personal” library. I’ve been waiting to release it because I wanted to give it a thorough test drive on an app I am developing. I can say, without a doubt, that because of this library, the app is the cleanest app I’ve written to date. I love it.
The reason I am writing this post is because I want to see what you think. Before I officially announce it, clean up the documentation, add in my tests, and take it out of beta, I wanted to get some feedback on it. So if you have a minute, take a look at it and let me know what you think.
Oh, and I’d like to give a lot of credit to James Golick. This project spawned out of his resource_controller plugin, which is an excellent plugin.
