Results for: "Pathname"

Get the user ID by the name. If the user is not found, ArgumentError will be raised.

Process::UID.from_name("root") #=> 0
Process::UID.from_name("nosuchuser") #=> can't find user for nosuchuser (ArgumentError)

Get the group ID by the name. If the group is not found, ArgumentError will be raised.

Process::GID.from_name("wheel") #=> 0
Process::GID.from_name("nosuchgroup") #=> can't find group for nosuchgroup (ArgumentError)

Example:

x.foo = 1
 ^^^^^^
x[42] = 1
 ^^^^^^

in foo | bar

Return the best specification that contains the file matching path amongst the specs that are not activated.

Return the best specification in the record that contains the file matching path amongst the specs that are not activated.

The index to insert activated gem paths into the $LOAD_PATH. The activated gem’s paths are inserted before site lib directory by default.

Add a list of paths to the $LOAD_PATH at the proper place.

With a block given, calls the block with each repeated permutation of length size of the elements of self; each permutation is an array; returns self. The order of the permutations is indeterminate.

If a positive integer argument size is given, calls the block with each size-tuple repeated permutation of the elements of self. The number of permutations is self.size**size.

Examples:

• size is 1:

  p = []
  [0, 1, 2].repeated_permutation(1) {|permutation| p.push(permutation) }
  p # => [[0], [1], [2]]
  

• size is 2:

  p = []
  [0, 1, 2].repeated_permutation(2) {|permutation| p.push(permutation) }
  p # => [[0, 0], [0, 1], [0, 2], [1, 0], [1, 1], [1, 2], [2, 0], [2, 1], [2, 2]]
  

If size is zero, calls the block once with an empty array.

If size is negative, does not call the block:

[0, 1, 2].repeated_permutation(-1) {|permutation| fail 'Cannot happen' }

With no block given, returns a new Enumerator.

Imports methods from modules. Unlike Module#include, Refinement#import_methods copies methods and adds them into the refinement, so the refinement is activated in the imported methods.

Note that due to method copying, only methods defined in Ruby code can be imported.

module StrUtils
  def indent(level)
    ' ' * level + self
  end
end

module M
  refine String do
    import_methods StrUtils
  end
end

using M
"foo".indent(3)
#=> "   foo"

module M
  refine String do
    import_methods Enumerable
    # Can't import method which is not defined with Ruby code: Enumerable#drop
  end
end

Returns whether ASCII-compatible or not.

Encoding::UTF_8.ascii_compatible?     #=> true
Encoding::UTF_16BE.ascii_compatible?  #=> false

Returns an array of the names of singleton methods for obj. If the optional all parameter is true, the list will include methods in modules included in obj. Only public and protected singleton methods are returned.

module Other
  def three() end
end

class Single
  def Single.four() end
end

a = Single.new

def a.one()
end

class << a
  include Other
  def two()
  end
end

Single.singleton_methods    #=> [:four]
a.singleton_methods(false)  #=> [:two, :one]
a.singleton_methods         #=> [:two, :one, :three]

Returns the list of protected methods accessible to obj. If the all parameter is set to false, only those methods in the receiver will be listed.

Returns the list of public methods accessible to obj. If the all parameter is set to false, only those methods in the receiver will be listed.

Similar to method, searches public method only.

Similar to method, searches singleton method only.

class Demo
  def initialize(n)
    @iv = n
  end
  def hello()
    "Hello, @iv = #{@iv}"
  end
end

k = Demo.new(99)
def k.hi
  "Hi, @iv = #{@iv}"
end
m = k.singleton_method(:hi)
m.call   #=> "Hi, @iv = 99"
m = k.singleton_method(:hello) #=> NameError

Invoked as a callback whenever an instance method is added to the receiver.

module Chatty
  def self.method_added(method_name)
    puts "Adding #{method_name.inspect}"
  end
  def self.some_class_method() end
  def some_instance_method() end
end

produces:

Adding :some_instance_method

Invoked as a callback whenever an instance method is removed from the receiver.

module Chatty
  def self.method_removed(method_name)
    puts "Removing #{method_name.inspect}"
  end
  def self.some_class_method() end
  def some_instance_method() end
  class << self
    remove_method :some_class_method
  end
  remove_method :some_instance_method
end

produces:

Removing :some_instance_method

Invoked as a callback whenever an instance method is undefined from the receiver.

module Chatty
  def self.method_undefined(method_name)
    puts "Undefining #{method_name.inspect}"
  end
  def self.some_class_method() end
  def some_instance_method() end
  class << self
    undef_method :some_class_method
  end
  undef_method :some_instance_method
end

produces:
