ActionSequence
==============

This plugin adds simple sequencing functionality to controller actions.

Note: Specs require test/spec.

Example
=======

  class ItemController < ApplicationController

    # Initialize item sequence to fetch current index from params[:steps_name]
    sequence :item, :steps_name do
      enter_stuff do |s|
        if params[:back] then s.previous
        elsif @item.valid_stuff? then s.next
        end
      end
      select_other_stuff(:meth1, :meth2) do |s|
        if params[:back] then s.previous
        elsif @item.save then s[:finished]
        end
      end
    end

    before_filter :load_item
    before_filter :walk_item_sequence, :only => [:create, :update]

    # Executed when :select_other_stuff is walked.
    def meth1
      # does something
    end
    def meth2
      # does something
    end

    # Walks a specific step, means:
    #
    # Assigns step to @steps_name and runs required methods,
    # but doesn't execute steps decision block!
    def new
      walk_item_sequence :enter_stuff
    end
    def edit
      walk_item_sequence :enter_stuff
    end

    # Walk to params[:steps_name]
    def create
      unless item_sequence.finished_with? @steps_name
        render :action => :new
      else
        redirect_to :action => :list
      end
    end
    def update
      unless item_sequence.finished_with? @steps_name
        render :action => :edit
      else
        redirect_to :action => :list
      end
    end

  end
