Reads one character from the stream. Returns nil if called at end of file.
Pushes character c back onto the stream such that a subsequent buffered character read will return it.
Unlike IO#getc
multiple bytes may be pushed back onto the stream.
Has no effect on unbuffered reads (such as sysread).
Closes the SSLSocket and flushes any unwritten data.
Generate a BlockQuote element as a string.
cite
can either be a string, give the URI
for the source of the quoted text, or a hash, giving all attributes of the element, or it can be omitted, in which case the element has no attributes.
The body is provided by the passed-in no-argument block
blockquote("http://www.example.com/quotes/foo.html") { "Foo!" } #=> "<BLOCKQUOTE CITE=\"http://www.example.com/quotes/foo.html\">Foo!</BLOCKQUOTE>
Returns an array of Range
objects that represent the value of field 'Range'
, or nil
if there is no such field; see Range request header:
req = Net::HTTP::Get.new(uri) req['Range'] = 'bytes=0-99,200-299,400-499' req.range # => [0..99, 200..299, 400..499] req.delete('Range') req.range # # => nil
Parses self
destructively in order and returns self
containing the rest arguments left unparsed.
Parses self
destructively in permutation mode and returns self
containing the rest arguments left unparsed.
Substitution of getopts is possible as follows. Also see OptionParser#getopts
.
def getopts(*args) ($OPT = ARGV.getopts(*args)).each do |opt, val| eval "$OPT_#{opt.gsub(/[^A-Za-z0-9_]/, '_')} = val" end rescue OptionParser::ParseError end
Generate a random alphanumeric string.
The argument n specifies the length, in characters, of the alphanumeric string to be generated. The argument chars specifies the character list which the result is consist of.
If n is not specified or is nil, 16 is assumed. It may be larger in the future.
The result may contain A-Z, a-z and 0-9, unless chars is specified.
require 'random/formatter' Random.alphanumeric #=> "2BuBuLf3WfSKyQbR" # or prng = Random.new prng.alphanumeric(10) #=> "i6K93NdqiH" Random.alphanumeric(4, chars: [*"0".."9"]) #=> "2952" # or prng = Random.new prng.alphanumeric(10, chars: [*"!".."/"]) #=> ",.,++%/''."
