=ActiveRecordEach
 
==Context
 
If you have to do a migration with a lot of rows, you can't do something like these
  User.find(:all).each do { |u| ... }
because you load all the table in ruby memmory. Ruby-prof says that these is not good, so I do these.
 
==Summary & Examples
 
ActiveRecordEach is a 5 minutes plugin that implements ActiveRecord::Base.each instance method.
 
It acepts any parameter that find accept except :limit
 
Now you can easily do
  User.each (:conditions => "users.login LIKE 'g%') { |u| Notifier.deliver_report(u) }
 
==Todo
It could be interesting make somthing like these:
  User.each (:step => 5) {|u| puts u.login}
 
And fetch 5 users per query
 
==Installation
 
You have two methods:
 * If your rails app is managed by git
  git-submodule add   git://github.com/guillermo/active_record_each.git vendor/plugins/active_record_each
 
 * If doesn't
  git-clone git://github.com/guillermo/active_record_each.git vendor/plugins/active_record_each
