ES as primary data store about elasticsearch-rails

[karmi]

I've started work on the "persistence" layer for this, it's not yet finished, ETA in couple of weeks. There's a discussion in #4.

Great!

The working version of the repository pattern implementation added in #71.

[xinuc]

Great work there!

A question though, what is the use case for each pattern?
Should I use the Repository pattern? (the API doesn't quite feel right for me),
or should I wait for the ActiveRecord pattern?

I really wish the DSL mimics something like mongoid's.

[karmi]

The notation you have originally described is indeed typical for the ActiveRecord-like patterns. That is not yet implemented, so if you want to do that, you have to wait for it to be coded (should be released in couple of weeks).

Thanks.

Is the ActiveRecord pattern implemented on top of the Repository Pattern?

I still don't understand the use case of the Repository Pattern.

[xinuc]

Ah, one more thing.

Will the AR like pattern use ActiveModel and works seamlessly with form helper etc?

Thanks.

[karmi]

Yes, that's the main motivation, to be a drop-in replacement for ActiveRecord::Base based models.

This look really nice, thank you!

Closing this, let's centralize the discussion in #78.
