# me.rb

 

In almost every my project there is a model that refers to myself. It can be an instance of User, Staff, Admin, Dude, etc. I use it for logging in and testing staff. I use it many times in rails console as well. Because typing `User.where(:email => 'my@email.com').first` can by annoying so I've put together little snippet that work in Mongoid and AcitveRecord as well.

 

```ruby

$ rails console

Loading development environment (Rails 3.1.0.rc4)

>> load 'me.rb'

=> nil

>> User.me

=> #<User _id: 4c14ba297826c943b2000002, encrypted_password: "16336dd440d4bbe843dc39....", .... >

```

 

I hope you find it useful!
