Returns true if and only if the last match was successful.
s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.match?(/\w+/) # => 4 s.matched? # => true s.match?(/\d+/) # => nil s.matched? # => false
Returns the last matched string.
s = StringScanner.new('test string') s.match?(/\w+/) # -> 4 s.matched # -> "test"
Iterates over each item of OLE collection which has IEnumVARIANT interface.
excel = WIN32OLE.new('Excel.Application') book = excel.workbooks.add sheets = book.worksheets(1) cells = sheets.cells("A1:A5") cells.each do |cell| cell.value = 10 end
Returns the value for the given key, if found.
h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2} h.fetch(:bar) # => 1
If key is not found and no block was given, returns default_value:
{}.fetch(:nosuch, :default) # => :default
If key is not found and a block was given, yields key to the block and returns the block’s return value:
{}.fetch(:nosuch) {|key| "No key #{key}"} # => "No key nosuch"
Raises KeyError if neither default_value nor a block was given.
Note that this method does not use the values of either default or default_proc.
Calls the given block with each key-value pair; returns self:
h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2} h.each_pair {|key, value| puts "#{key}: #{value}"} # => {:foo=>0, :bar=>1, :baz=>2}
Output:
foo: 0 bar: 1 baz: 2
Returns a new Enumerator if no block given:
h = {foo: 0, bar: 1, baz: 2} e = h.each_pair # => #<Enumerator: {:foo=>0, :bar=>1, :baz=>2}:each_pair> h1 = e.each {|key, value| puts "#{key}: #{value}"} h1 # => {:foo=>0, :bar=>1, :baz=>2}
Output:
foo: 0 bar: 1 baz: 2
If name is the name of an environment variable, returns its value:
ENV['foo'] = '0' ENV.fetch('foo') # => '0'
Otherwise if a block is given (but not a default value), yields name to the block and returns the block’s return value:
ENV.fetch('foo') { |name| :need_not_return_a_string } # => :need_not_return_a_string
Otherwise if a default value is given (but not a block), returns the default value:
ENV.delete('foo') ENV.fetch('foo', :default_need_not_be_a_string) # => :default_need_not_be_a_string
If the environment variable does not exist and both default and block are given, issues a warning (“warning: block supersedes default value argument”), yields name to the block, and returns the block’s return value:
ENV.fetch('foo', :default) { |name| :block_return } # => :block_return
Raises KeyError if name is valid, but not found, and neither default value nor block is given:
ENV.fetch('foo') # Raises KeyError (key not found: "foo")
Raises an exception if name is invalid. See Invalid Names and Values.
Yields each environment variable name and its value as a 2-element Array:
h = {} ENV.each_pair { |name, value| h[name] = value } # => ENV h # => {"bar"=>"1", "foo"=>"0"}
Returns an Enumerator if no block given:
h = {} e = ENV.each_pair # => #<Enumerator: {"bar"=>"1", "foo"=>"0"}:each_pair> e.each { |name, value| h[name] = value } # => ENV h # => {"bar"=>"1", "foo"=>"0"}
Returns an enumerator which iterates over each line (separated by sep, which defaults to your platform’s newline character) of each file in ARGV. If a block is supplied, each line in turn will be yielded to the block, otherwise an enumerator is returned. The optional limit argument is an Integer specifying the maximum length of each line; longer lines will be split according to this limit.
This method allows you to treat the files supplied on the command line as a single file consisting of the concatenation of each named file. After the last line of the first file has been returned, the first line of the second file is returned. The ARGF.filename and ARGF.lineno methods can be used to determine the filename of the current line and line number of the whole input, respectively.
For example, the following code prints out each line of each named file prefixed with its line number, displaying the filename once per file:
ARGF.each_line do |line| puts ARGF.filename if ARGF.file.lineno == 1 puts "#{ARGF.file.lineno}: #{line}" end
While the following code prints only the first file’s name at first, and the contents with line number counted through all named files.
ARGF.each_line do |line| puts ARGF.filename if ARGF.lineno == 1 puts "#{ARGF.lineno}: #{line}" end
Reads the next character from ARGF and returns it as a String. Raises an EOFError after the last character of the last file has been read.
For example:
$ echo "foo" > file $ ruby argf.rb file ARGF.readchar #=> "f" ARGF.readchar #=> "o" ARGF.readchar #=> "o" ARGF.readchar #=> "\n" ARGF.readchar #=> end of file reached (EOFError)
Calls the block with each row read from source path_or_io.
Path input without headers:
string = "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" in_path = 't.csv' File.write(in_path, string) CSV.foreach(in_path) {|row| p row }
Output:
["foo", "0"] ["bar", "1"] ["baz", "2"]
Path input with headers:
string = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" in_path = 't.csv' File.write(in_path, string) CSV.foreach(in_path, headers: true) {|row| p row }
Output:
<CSV::Row "Name":"foo" "Value":"0"> <CSV::Row "Name":"bar" "Value":"1"> <CSV::Row "Name":"baz" "Value":"2">
IO stream input without headers:
string = "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" path = 't.csv' File.write(path, string) File.open('t.csv') do |in_io| CSV.foreach(in_io) {|row| p row } end
Output:
["foo", "0"] ["bar", "1"] ["baz", "2"]
IO stream input with headers:
string = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" path = 't.csv' File.write(path, string) File.open('t.csv') do |in_io| CSV.foreach(in_io, headers: true) {|row| p row } end
Output:
<CSV::Row "Name":"foo" "Value":"0"> <CSV::Row "Name":"bar" "Value":"1"> <CSV::Row "Name":"baz" "Value":"2">
With no block given, returns an Enumerator:
string = "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" path = 't.csv' File.write(path, string) CSV.foreach(path) # => #<Enumerator: CSV:foreach("t.csv", "r")>
Arguments:
Argument path_or_io must be a file path or an IO stream.
Argument mode, if given, must be a File mode. See Access Modes.
Arguments **options must be keyword options. See Options for Parsing.
This method optionally accepts an additional :encoding option that you can use to specify the Encoding of the data read from path or io. You must provide this unless your data is in the encoding given by Encoding::default_external. Parsing will use this to determine how to parse the data. You may provide a second Encoding to have the data transcoded as it is read. For example,
encoding: 'UTF-32BE:UTF-8'
would read UTF-32BE data from the file but transcode it to UTF-8 before parsing.
Calls the block with each successive row. The data source must be opened for reading.
Without headers:
string = "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" csv = CSV.new(string) csv.each do |row| p row end
Output:
["foo", "0"] ["bar", "1"] ["baz", "2"]
With headers:
string = "Name,Value\nfoo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" csv = CSV.new(string, headers: true) csv.each do |row| p row end
Output:
<CSV::Row "Name":"foo" "Value":"0"> <CSV::Row "Name":"bar" "Value":"1"> <CSV::Row "Name":"baz" "Value":"2">
Raises an exception if the source is not opened for reading:
string = "foo,0\nbar,1\nbaz,2\n" csv = CSV.new(string) csv.close # Raises IOError (not opened for reading) csv.each do |row| p row end
Calls the given block with each option; each option is a 2-element array containing:
The option name (the name itself, not an alias).
The option value.
Example:
require 'getoptlong' options = GetoptLong.new( ['--xxx', '-x', GetoptLong::REQUIRED_ARGUMENT], ['--yyy', '-y', GetoptLong::OPTIONAL_ARGUMENT], ['--zzz', '-z',GetoptLong::NO_ARGUMENT] ) puts "Original ARGV: #{ARGV}" options.each do |option, argument| p [option, argument] end puts "Remaining ARGV: #{ARGV}"
Command line:
ruby each.rb -xxx Foo -x Bar --yyy Baz -y Bat --zzz
Output:
Original ARGV: ["-xxx", "Foo", "-x", "Bar", "--yyy", "Baz", "-y", "Bat", "--zzz"] ["--xxx", "xx"] ["--xxx", "Bar"] ["--yyy", "Baz"] ["--yyy", "Bat"] ["--zzz", ""] Remaining ARGV: ["Foo"]
Returns the matched substring corresponding to the given argument.
When non-negative argument n is given, returns the matched substring for the nth match:
m = /(.)(.)(\d+)(\d)(\w)?/.match("THX1138.") # => #<MatchData "HX1138" 1:"H" 2:"X" 3:"113" 4:"8" 5:nil> m.match(0) # => "HX1138" m.match(4) # => "8" m.match(5) # => nil
When string or symbol argument name is given, returns the matched substring for the given name:
m = /(?<foo>.)(.)(?<bar>.+)/.match("hoge") # => #<MatchData "hoge" foo:"h" bar:"ge"> m.match('foo') # => "h" m.match(:bar) # => "ge"
Like [], except that it accepts a default value for the store. If the key does not exist:
Raises an exception if default is PStore::Error.
Returns the value of default otherwise:
example_store do |store| store.transaction do store.fetch(:nope, nil) # => nil store.fetch(:nope) # Raises an exception. end end
Raises an exception if called outside a transaction block.
Returns a fiber-local for the given key. If the key can’t be found, there are several options: With no other arguments, it will raise a KeyError exception; if default is given, then that will be returned; if the optional code block is specified, then that will be run and its result returned. See Thread#[] and Hash#fetch.
Equivalent to ($_.dup).chop!, except nil is never returned. See String#chop!. Available only when -p/-n command line option specified.
Equivalent to $_ = $_.chomp(string). See String#chomp. Available only when -p/-n command line option specified.
catch executes its block. If throw is not called, the block executes normally, and catch returns the value of the last expression evaluated.
catch(1) { 123 } # => 123
If throw(tag2, val) is called, Ruby searches up its stack for a catch block whose tag has the same object_id as tag2. When found, the block stops executing and returns val (or nil if no second argument was given to throw).
catch(1) { throw(1, 456) } # => 456 catch(1) { throw(1) } # => nil
When tag is passed as the first argument, catch yields it as the parameter of the block.
catch(1) {|x| x + 2 } # => 3
When no tag is given, catch yields a new unique object (as from Object.new) as the block parameter. This object can then be used as the argument to throw, and will match the correct catch block.
catch do |obj_A| catch do |obj_B| throw(obj_B, 123) puts "This puts is not reached" end puts "This puts is displayed" 456 end # => 456 catch do |obj_A| catch do |obj_B| throw(obj_A, 123) puts "This puts is still not reached" end puts "Now this puts is also not reached" 456 end # => 123
Each element in the returned enumerator is a 2-element array consisting of:
A value returned by the block.
An array (“chunk”) containing the element for which that value was returned, and all following elements for which the block returned the same value:
So that:
Each block return value that is different from its predecessor begins a new chunk.
Each block return value that is the same as its predecessor continues the same chunk.
Example:
e = (0..10).chunk {|i| (i / 3).floor } # => #<Enumerator: ...> # The enumerator elements. e.next # => [0, [0, 1, 2]] e.next # => [1, [3, 4, 5]] e.next # => [2, [6, 7, 8]] e.next # => [3, [9, 10]]
Method chunk is especially useful for an enumerable that is already sorted. This example counts words for each initial letter in a large array of words:
# Get sorted words from a web page. url = 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eneko/data-repository/master/data/words.txt' words = URI::open(url).readlines # Make chunks, one for each letter. e = words.chunk {|word| word.upcase[0] } # => #<Enumerator: ...> # Display 'A' through 'F'. e.each {|c, words| p [c, words.length]; break if c == 'F' }
Output:
["A", 17096] ["B", 11070] ["C", 19901] ["D", 10896] ["E", 8736] ["F", 6860]
You can use the special symbol :_alone to force an element into its own separate chuck:
a = [0, 0, 1, 1] e = a.chunk{|i| i.even? ? :_alone : true } e.to_a # => [[:_alone, [0]], [:_alone, [0]], [true, [1, 1]]]
For example, you can put each line that contains a URL into its own chunk:
pattern = /http/ open(filename) { |f| f.chunk { |line| line =~ pattern ? :_alone : true }.each { |key, lines| pp lines } }
You can use the special symbol :_separator or nil to force an element to be ignored (not included in any chunk):
a = [0, 0, -1, 1, 1] e = a.chunk{|i| i < 0 ? :_separator : true } e.to_a # => [[true, [0, 0]], [true, [1, 1]]]
Note that the separator does end the chunk:
a = [0, 0, -1, 1, -1, 1] e = a.chunk{|i| i < 0 ? :_separator : true } e.to_a # => [[true, [0, 0]], [true, [1]], [true, [1]]]
For example, the sequence of hyphens in svn log can be eliminated as follows:
sep = "-"*72 + "\n" IO.popen("svn log README") { |f| f.chunk { |line| line != sep || nil }.each { |_, lines| pp lines } } #=> ["r20018 | knu | 2008-10-29 13:20:42 +0900 (Wed, 29 Oct 2008) | 2 lines\n", # "\n", # "* README, README.ja: Update the portability section.\n", # "\n"] # ["r16725 | knu | 2008-05-31 23:34:23 +0900 (Sat, 31 May 2008) | 2 lines\n", # "\n", # "* README, README.ja: Add a note about default C flags.\n", # "\n"] # ...
Paragraphs separated by empty lines can be parsed as follows:
File.foreach("README").chunk { |line| /\A\s*\z/ !~ line || nil }.each { |_, lines| pp lines }
Returns an enumerator object generated from this enumerator and given enumerables.
e = (1..3).chain([4, 5]) e.to_a #=> [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Returns true if filepath points to a character device, false otherwise.
File.chardev?($stdin) # => true File.chardev?('t.txt') # => false
Invokes the block with a Benchmark::Report object, which may be used to collect and report on the results of individual benchmark tests. Reserves label_width leading spaces for labels on each line. Prints caption at the top of the report, and uses format to format each line. (Note: caption must contain a terminating newline character, see the default Benchmark::Tms::CAPTION for an example.)
Returns an array of Benchmark::Tms objects.
If the block returns an array of Benchmark::Tms objects, these will be used to format additional lines of output. If labels parameter are given, these are used to label these extra lines.
Note: Other methods provide a simpler interface to this one, and are suitable for nearly all benchmarking requirements. See the examples in Benchmark, and the bm and bmbm methods.
Example:
require 'benchmark' include Benchmark # we need the CAPTION and FORMAT constants n = 5000000 Benchmark.benchmark(CAPTION, 7, FORMAT, ">total:", ">avg:") do |x| tf = x.report("for:") { for i in 1..n; a = "1"; end } tt = x.report("times:") { n.times do ; a = "1"; end } tu = x.report("upto:") { 1.upto(n) do ; a = "1"; end } [tf+tt+tu, (tf+tt+tu)/3] end

Changes permissions on the entries at the paths given in list (a single path or an array of paths) to the permissions given by mode; returns list if it is an array, [list] otherwise:
Modifies each entry that is a regular file using File.chmod.
Modifies each entry that is a symbolic link using File.lchmod.
Argument list or its elements should be interpretable as paths.
Argument mode may be either an integer or a string:
Integer mode: represents the permission bits to be set:
FileUtils.chmod(0755, 'src0.txt') FileUtils.chmod(0644, ['src0.txt', 'src0.dat'])
String mode: represents the permissions to be set:
The string is of the form [targets][[operator][perms[,perms]], where:
targets may be any combination of these letters:
'u': permissions apply to the file’s owner.
'g': permissions apply to users in the file’s group.
'o': permissions apply to other users not in the file’s group.
'a' (the default): permissions apply to all users.
operator may be one of these letters:
'+': adds permissions.
'-': removes permissions.
'=': sets (replaces) permissions.
perms (may be repeated, with separating commas) may be any combination of these letters:
'r': Read.
'w': Write.
'x': Execute (search, for a directory).
'X': Search (for a directories only; must be used with '+')
's': Uid or gid.
't': Sticky bit.
Examples:
FileUtils.chmod('u=wrx,go=rx', 'src1.txt') FileUtils.chmod('u=wrx,go=rx', '/usr/bin/ruby')
Keyword arguments:
noop: true - does not change permissions; returns nil.
verbose: true - prints an equivalent command:
FileUtils.chmod(0755, 'src0.txt', noop: true, verbose: true) FileUtils.chmod(0644, ['src0.txt', 'src0.dat'], noop: true, verbose: true) FileUtils.chmod('u=wrx,go=rx', 'src1.txt', noop: true, verbose: true) FileUtils.chmod('u=wrx,go=rx', '/usr/bin/ruby', noop: true, verbose: true)
Output:
chmod 755 src0.txt chmod 644 src0.txt src0.dat chmod u=wrx,go=rx src1.txt chmod u=wrx,go=rx /usr/bin/ruby
