thyng

https://github.com/CrowdHailer/Thyng

Create Ruby objects with public state to encourage their storage as data only collections. Instead of private attributes a thyng has public aspects. Basic access to these can be declared with asect_reader, aspect_write & aspect_accessor. Thyng is a subclass of a plain Ruby Hash allowing merging, filtering etc of the objects aspects. With all state external a thyng can be reconstructed completly from its data. This allows it to be passed as JSON or easily stored in a database.
