defmodule Ecto.Rut do
@moduledoc """
Provides simple, sane and terse shortcuts for Ecto models.
Ecto.Rut is a wrapper around `Ecto.Repo` methods that usually require you to pass
the module as the subject and sometimes even require you do extra work before hand,
(as in the case of `Repo.insert/3`) to perform operations on your database. Ecto.Rut
tries to reduce code repetition by following the "Convention over Configuration"
ideology.
For example, once set up, it allows you to do this on a model called `Post`:
```
# Create a Post
Post.insert(title: "Introduction to Elixir", categories: ["Elixir", "Programming"])
# Get all Posts
Post.all
# Get a Post with its id
Post.get(3)
# Get a Post with another attribute
Post.get_by(published_date: "2016-02-24")
# Delete a Post
Post.delete(lame_post)
```
## Installation
Once added to your mix dependencies, all you need to do is call `use Ecto.Rut` in
your Ecto models:
```
defmodule YourApp.Post do
use Ecto.Schema
use Ecto.Rut
# Schema, Changeset and other stuff...
end
```
### Phoenix Projects
If you're using Ecto with a Phoenix project, instead of calling `use Ecto.Rut` in all of
your models, you can just call it once in the `model/0` method of your `web/web.ex` file:
```
# web/web.ex
def model do
quote do
use Ecto.Schema
use Ecto.Rut
# Other stuff...
end
end
```
## Configuration
You can also pass options to Ecto.Rut when calling `use` on it. These values are inferred
automatically by Ecto.Rut, but you can set them yourself in those special cases where it
can't. The two options are:
- `:model`
You set this when your Ecto Model is different from the module where you are calling `use`
- `:repo`
You set this when your app's Ecto.Repo module is set differently.
```
defmodule YourApp.OtherNamespace.Post do
use Ecto.Schema
use Ecto.Rut, model: YourApp.Post, repo: YourApp.CustomEcto.Repo
# Other Stuff
end
```
## Export Changeset
Methods like `c:insert/1` or `c:update/2` depend on your model exporting a public function called
`changeset(struct, params)` with all your desired validations and constraints applied to
the casted struct.
Ecto.Rut uses this function to convert maps, keyword lists and other types into `Ecto.Changeset`,
before updating or inserting them into the database.
Phoenix projects generate them for your models automatically, but for other Elixir projects,
you can [see an example here](https://hexdocs.pm/ecto/Ecto.Changeset.html).

Inserts a new record (Can be a struct, changeset, keyword list or a map).
In case a changeset is given, the changes in the changeset are merges with the struct fields
and all of them are sent to the database.
In case a struct, keyword list or a map is given, they are first converted to a changeset, with
all non-nil fields as part of the changeset and inserted into the database if it's valid.
Returns a {:ok, struct} if it was successfully inserted, or a {:error, changeset} is there was a
validation or a known constraint error.

Returns `{:ok, struct}` if the struct has been successfully updated or `{:error, changeset}`
