Hello, I am new to Sequel, it is fantastic, thank you!
I have a database schema which uses CamelCase for most names, both tables and columns. I am using `def_column_alias` to provide Ruby-like method names: class Foo < S::M def_column_alias :email_address, :EmailAddress # ==> a_foo.email_address # many more such def_c_a calls end However, I'd like to do a little more than simple CamelCase to snake_case conversion. For example, many column names are [more or less] prefixed with the table name (ex. table: Folders with columns: FolderName, FolderId) and I'd like to remove the prefix. How can I ask Sequel to define these aliases (or methods) when it builds the usual methods (#EmailAddress)? I've searched the mailing list and seen discussion (in 2011) about overriding Sequel::Model::Base#def_column_accessor. I'm cautious about overriding -- is that still a reasonable approach? Perhaps I should be looking for a specific hook, or writing a plugin? I'd appreciate someone nudging me in the right direction.
