get value for state name?

[arches]

I have a bunch of states defined with custom values. How can I retrieve the value for a given state? Thanks!

@arches can you give me a better description? Also, unless this is related to the activerecord integration, this might be better asked in the parent project, https://github.com/state-machines/state_machines/issues

In the parent project readme, it shows (and I use it this way):

vehicle.state                   # => "parked"
vehicle.state_name              # => :parked

[arches]

My setup:

class Vehicle
  state_machine :state do
    state :parked, value: 0
  end
end

My goal is to turn :parked back into 0, for example:

Vehicle.state_value(:parked) # => 0

(Sorry to ask in the wrong place, I got here from pluginaweek/state_machine#343)

I'm not sure, but I'm curious to know as well. @renchap in #13 might be interested too. I'd definitely close this one and ask in the parent, might get more help. Also, thanks for the note about where you came from, I asked @Styxx to make an update to the link.

ok, thanks @rosskevin! moved to state-machines/state_machines#22
