Migrating from Machinist / Named Blueprints -> Named Fabricators

[Rob Lacey]

Hi there,

We're considering migrating from Machinist because Machinist 1 has had no commits for 3 years. I was wondering if Fabrication has a way of using 'named Fabricators' in the same way that you have 'named Blueprints' in Machinist.

The only way I can see at the moment to do this would be instead of

User.blueprint(:admin) do
  admin true
end

User.make(:admin)

You'd have say...

Fabricator(:admin_user, :from => :user) do
  admin true
end

Fabricate(:admin_user)

Anyone got any other ideas?

Cheers

You could achieve what you are doing today with machinist like this:

Fabricator(:admin, class_name: ‘User’) do

  admin true

end

You can also provide aliases in Fabrication which may come in handy for you.

Fabricator(:admin, class_name: ‘User’, aliases: %i(user_admin super_user)) do

  admin true

end

That way they can be fabricated using any of the above names.
