Remove models/roles and return to fat models

  • Overview 5
  • Commits 3
  • Changes 28

Created by: dzaporozhets

After half of year with models roles I'd like to remove them from system Reasons below:

  • its difficult to define where method goes (role or model)
  • roles are closely connected to model fields so changing model requires changing some or roles
  • its easily to duplicate method already defined in another role
  • testing roles requires a model anyway
  • it is complicated to search for method having few roles

So I suggest to return to fat models + libs

I saved Vote, IssueCommonality, StaticModel as libs. Also I am going to extract Repository from project in future in separate class in libraries

Feedback from core team is appreciated
