Query Objects

I’m trying to migrate my models to be dumb data bags that have some useful state altering methods. I’ve found that using query objects, I was able to reduce the complexity of some of my models and controllers. The Problem My User model is gigantic. It’s well over 600 LOC, and it’s growing at a scary rate. Testing is becoming a nightmare because of all the methods. A few methods I have realized, I could remove completely and extract them into query objects....
