Design question - where to store constants?
...r)
The status -could- be another table in the database listing status
types, but I think that''s unnecessarily complex and overly flexible for
this. (opinions on this point would be interesting)
Another alternative would be to define the statuses as a constant within
the application:
ticket_status = ["Open", "Closed"]
Where is this constant declaration best suited? At the App level in the
CONFIG[]? Or in the model for the ticket? The controller for the
ticket? It seems to be a model thing.
