Memoize instance methods with ease.

memorb's Issues

Library doesn't work with ActiveRecord models

This library relies on overriding initialize but ActiveRecord does its own thing with overriding initialize which does not allow for anything else to do so.

Attempts to reference memoized methods will result in an error like

NoMethodError (undefined method `memorb' for #<SomeActiveRecordModel...>)

ActiveRecord provides a way to deal with this via the after_initialize model hook. Ideally, figure out a way to support this without overriding initialize at all.

ActiveRecord models retain memoized values after being reloaded

I think there should be an integration for ActiveRecord that will forget all memoized values when reload is called on the model. Memoized values are likely to be computed from source record data which may have changed since the last data load, leaving stale/incorrect memoized values on the record.
