How to avoid if/else with different ramifications
Similar to the above recommendations of Railway Orientated Programming and the Interactor gem, I use the Light Service gem. While it can sometimes be a bit verbose it excels in code reuse, testability, and composition.

Looking for advice on how to do multiple methods depending on params
Thanks for the info. I like the sounds of that article. I think I was sort of thinking along those lines myself but didn't know what to refer to it as. I stumbled on to this as well after reading the article: https://github.com/collectiveidea/interactor.
