Acts As Votable is a Ruby on Rails gem that provides voting for models.

Acts As Votable is a Ruby Gem specifically written for Rails/ActiveRecord models. The main goals of this gem are:

  • Allow any model to be voted on, like/dislike, upvote/downvote, etc.
  • Allow any model to be voted under arbitrary scopes.
  • Allow any model to vote. In other words, votes do not have to come from a user, they can come from any model (such as a Group or Team).
  • Provide an easy to write/read syntax.
