== DESCRIPTION:

RestfulQuery provides a RESTful interface for easily and safely querying ActiveRecord data.

== USAGE:

=== Rails/ActiveRecord:

as a gem, in environment.rb

config.gem 'restful_query'

or install the plugin. In your model:

class Post < ActiveRecord::Base can_query end

In your controller:

class PostsController < ApplicationController # ... def index @posts = Post.restful_query(params[:query]) end # ... end

Now you can query your model via the URL:

/posts?query[name][like]=jon&query[_sort]=created_at-desc

=== Sequel

Theres also a Sequel extension that works very similar to ActiveRecord::Base.can_query:

require 'sequel/extensions/restful_query'

DB[:posts].restful_query({'name' => {'like' => 'jon'}, '_sort' => 'created_at-desc'}) <Sequel::SQLite::Dataset: "SELECT * FROM posts WHERE (name LIKE %jon%) ORDER BY created_at DESC">

=== More!
