Rails disable eager loading for specific model -

i'm writing rails application functionality interfaces third-party api (streamsend) via activeresource. i'm using shopify's fork of activeresource thread-safe operation because different users of application have own streamsend api client id's , secret keys , don't want app step on them when interfacing third-party api.

i have in controller associated around_action filter:

private  # set streamsend credentials in every request def set_ss_credentials   streamsend.site,     streamsend.user,       streamsend.password = current_user_credentials   yield ensure   streamsend.site =     streamsend.user =       streamsend.password = nil end  default_site, default_user, default_password = [ rails.application.secrets.streamsend_api_endpoint, "username", "password" ]  def current_user_credentials   current_user.present? ?     [ rails.application.secrets.streamsend_api_endpoint, current_user.ss_userid, current_user.ss_key ] :     [ default_site, default_user, default_password ] end 

and in model:

class streamsend < activeresource::base   self.format = :xml   def self.audience     @audience ||= streamsend::audience.find(:first)   end end 

the site , credentials meant fed in via controller action , current user that's logged in.

this works fine when using webrick, because default setting rails in production mode config.eager_load = true, application won't start because actual model lacking site , credentials well.

is there way can tell eager_load ignore ares-dependent models eager load actual database models?

the errors when launching in production mode came this:

def self.audience   @audience ||= streamsend::audience.find(:first) end 

hard coding audience 1 default allowed me launch application in production mode. fine because streamsend supports 1 audience per account.
