ENV.store
is an alias for ENV.[]=
.
Creates, updates, or deletes the named environment variable, returning the value. Both name
and value
may be instances of String
. See Valid Names and Values.
If the named environment variable does not exist:
If value
is nil
, does nothing.
ENV.clear ENV['foo'] = nil # => nil ENV.include?('foo') # => false ENV.store('bar', nil) # => nil ENV.include?('bar') # => false
If value
is not nil
, creates the environment variable with name
and value
:
# Create 'foo' using ENV.[]=. ENV['foo'] = '0' # => '0' ENV['foo'] # => '0' # Create 'bar' using ENV.store. ENV.store('bar', '1') # => '1' ENV['bar'] # => '1'
If the named environment variable exists:
If value
is not nil
, updates the environment variable with value value
:
# Update 'foo' using ENV.[]=. ENV['foo'] = '2' # => '2' ENV['foo'] # => '2' # Update 'bar' using ENV.store. ENV.store('bar', '3') # => '3' ENV['bar'] # => '3'
If value
is nil
, deletes the environment variable:
# Delete 'foo' using ENV.[]=. ENV['foo'] = nil # => nil ENV.include?('foo') # => false # Delete 'bar' using ENV.store. ENV.store('bar', nil) # => nil ENV.include?('bar') # => false
Raises an exception if name
or value
is invalid. See Invalid Names and Values.
Returns revision information for the erb.rb module.
The reason this block was terminated: :break, :redo, :retry, :next, :return, or :noreason.
Executes command… in a subshell. command… is one of following forms.
commandline
command line string which is passed to the standard shell
cmdname, arg1, ...
command name and one or more arguments (no shell)
[cmdname, argv0], arg1, ...
command name, argv[0]
and zero or more arguments (no shell)
system returns true
if the command gives zero exit status, false
for non zero exit status. Returns nil
if command execution fails. An error status is available in $?
.
If the exception: true
argument is passed, the method raises an exception instead of returning false
or nil
.
The arguments are processed in the same way as for Kernel#spawn
.
The hash arguments, env and options, are same as exec
and spawn
. See Kernel#spawn
for details.
system("echo *") system("echo", "*")
produces:
config.h main.rb *
Error handling:
system("cat nonexistent.txt") # => false system("catt nonexistent.txt") # => nil system("cat nonexistent.txt", exception: true) # RuntimeError (Command failed with exit 1: cat) system("catt nonexistent.txt", exception: true) # Errno::ENOENT (No such file or directory - catt)
See Kernel#exec
for the standard shell.
Returns current status of GC
stress mode.
Updates the GC
stress mode.
When stress mode is enabled, the GC
is invoked at every GC
opportunity: all memory and object allocations.
Enabling stress mode will degrade performance, it is only for debugging.
flag can be true, false, or an integer bit-ORed following flags.
0x01:: no major GC 0x02:: no immediate sweep 0x04:: full mark after malloc/calloc/realloc
Quietly ensure the Gem
directory dir
contains all the proper subdirectories. If we can’t create a directory due to a permission problem, then we will silently continue.
If mode
is given, missing directories are created with this mode.
World-writable directories will never be created.
Returns an Array
of SingleResponse
for this BasicResponse
.
In the first form, returns an array of the names of all constants accessible from the point of call. This list includes the names of all modules and classes defined in the global scope.
Module.constants.first(4) # => [:ARGF, :ARGV, :ArgumentError, :Array] Module.constants.include?(:SEEK_SET) # => false class IO Module.constants.include?(:SEEK_SET) # => true end
The second form calls the instance method constants
.
Returns an array of the names of the constants accessible in mod. This includes the names of constants in any included modules (example at start of section), unless the inherit parameter is set to false
.
The implementation makes no guarantees about the order in which the constants are yielded.
IO.constants.include?(:SYNC) #=> true IO.constants(false).include?(:SYNC) #=> false
Also see Module#const_defined?
.
Restore session state from the session’s FileStore
file.
Returns the session state as a hash.
Restore (empty) session state.
Restore session state from the session’s PStore
file.
Returns the session state as a hash.
Called with encoding
when the YAML
stream starts. This method is called once per stream. A stream may contain multiple documents.
See the constants in Psych::Parser
for the possible values of encoding
.
