This is about method_missing featured of ruby, which I had used recently in SimpleTicket well, its Ver2.0 of SimpleTicket, at Architel soon to be used in-house first.afterwards will be released as open-source project.

it creates methods like,

• `status_to_open`
• `status_to_contacted`
• `status_to_pending`
• `status_to_closed`

changes status of ticket as their name suggests

def method_missing(method_id, *arguments)
  if mdata = /status_to_(open|closed|contacted|pending)/.match(method_id.to_s)
    status = mdata.captures.first
    change_status(Status.find_by_name(status.capitalize).id)
  else
    super
  end
end

I’m loving Ruby
