Active Model Conversion

Handles default conversions: to_model, to_key, to_param, and to_partial_path.

Let’s take for example this non-persisted object.

class ContactMessage
  include ActiveModel::Conversion

  # ContactMessage are never persisted in the DB
  def persisted?
    false
  end
end

cm = ContactMessage.new
cm.to_model == cm  # => true
cm.to_key          # => nil
cm.to_param        # => nil
cm.to_partial_path # => "contact_messages/contact_message"
