Returns default internal encoding. Strings will be transcoded to the default internal encoding in the following places if the default internal encoding is not nil:

• CSV

• Etc.sysconfdir and Etc.systmpdir

• File data read from disk

• File names from Dir

• Integer#chr

• String#inspect and Regexp#inspect

• Strings returned from Readline

• Strings returned from SDBM

• Time#zone

• Values from ENV

• Values in ARGV including $PROGRAM_NAME

Additionally String#encode and String#encode! use the default internal encoding if no encoding is given.

The script encoding (__ENCODING__), not default_internal, is used as the encoding of created strings.

Encoding::default_internal is initialized with -E option or nil otherwise.

Sets default internal encoding or removes default internal encoding when passed nil. You should not set Encoding::default_internal in ruby code as strings created before changing the value may have a different encoding from strings created after the change. Instead you should use ruby -E to invoke ruby with the correct default_internal.

See Encoding::default_internal for information on how the default internal encoding is used.

Iterates the given block for each element with an index, which starts from offset. If no block is given, returns a new Enumerator that includes the index, starting from offset

offset

the starting index to use

Iterates the given block for each element with an arbitrary object, obj, and returns obj

If no block is given, returns a new Enumerator.

Example

to_three = Enumerator.new do |y|
  3.times do |x|
    y << x
  end
end

to_three_with_string = to_three.with_object("foo")
to_three_with_string.each do |x,string|
  puts "#{string}: #{x}"
end

# => foo: 0
# => foo: 1
# => foo: 2

Convert an object to YAML. See Psych.dump for more information on the available options.

Returns the message string with enhancements:

• Includes the exception class name in the first line.

• If the value of keyword highlight is true, includes bolding and underlining ANSI codes (see below) to enhance the appearance of the message.

Examples:

begin
  1 / 0
rescue => x
  p x.message
  p x.detailed_message                  # Class name added.
  p x.detailed_message(highlight: true) # Class name, bolding, and underlining added.
end

Output:

"divided by 0"
"divided by 0 (ZeroDivisionError)"
"\e[1mdivided by 0 (\e[1;4mZeroDivisionError\e[m\e[1m)\e[m"

This method is overridden by some gems in the Ruby standard library to add information:

• DidYouMean::Correctable#detailed_message.

• ErrorHighlight::CoreExt#detailed_message.

• SyntaxSuggest#detailed_message.

An overriding method must be tolerant of passed keyword arguments, which may include (but may not be limited to):

• :highlight.

• :did_you_mean.

• :error_highlight.

• :syntax_suggest.

An overrriding method should also be careful with ANSI code enhancements; see Messages.

Returns an enhanced message string:

• Includes the exception class name.

• If the value of keyword highlight is true (not nil or false), includes bolding ANSI codes (see below) to enhance the appearance of the message.

• Includes the backtrace:

  • If the value of keyword order is :top (the default), lists the error message and the innermost backtrace entry first.

  • If the value of keyword order is :bottom, lists the error message the the innermost entry last.

Example:

def baz
  begin
    1 / 0
  rescue => x
    pp x.message
    pp x.full_message(highlight: false).split("\n")
    pp x.full_message.split("\n")
  end
end
def bar; baz; end
def foo; bar; end
foo

Output:

"divided by 0"
["t.rb:3:in `/': divided by 0 (ZeroDivisionError)",
 "\tfrom t.rb:3:in `baz'",
 "\tfrom t.rb:10:in `bar'",
 "\tfrom t.rb:11:in `foo'",
 "\tfrom t.rb:12:in `<main>'"]
["t.rb:3:in `/': \e[1mdivided by 0 (\e[1;4mZeroDivisionError\e[m\e[1m)\e[m",
 "\tfrom t.rb:3:in `baz'",
 "\tfrom t.rb:10:in `bar'",
 "\tfrom t.rb:11:in `foo'",
 "\tfrom t.rb:12:in `<main>'"]

An overrriding method should be careful with ANSI code enhancements; see backtrace.

Returns a backtrace value for self; the returned value depends on the form of the stored backtrace value:

• Array of Thread::Backtrace::Location objects: returns that array.

• Array of strings or nil: returns nil.

Example:

begin
  1 / 0
rescue => x
  x.backtrace_locations.take(2)
end
# => ["(irb):150:in `/'", "(irb):150:in `<top (required)>'"]

Return true if the caused method was called as private.

When this module is included in another, Ruby calls append_features in this module, passing it the receiving module in mod. Ruby’s default implementation is to add the constants, methods, and module variables of this module to mod if this module has not already been added to mod or one of its ancestors. See also Module#include.

When this module is prepended in another, Ruby calls prepend_features in this module, passing it the receiving module in mod. Ruby’s default implementation is to overlay the constants, methods, and module variables of this module to mod if this module has not already been added to mod or one of its ancestors. See also Module#prepend.

Returns an array of all modules used in the current scope. The ordering of modules in the resulting array is not defined.

module A
  refine Object do
  end
end

module B
  refine Object do
  end
end

using A
using B
p Module.used_refinements

produces:

[#<refinement:Object@B>, #<refinement:Object@A>]

Creates instance variables and corresponding methods that return the value of each instance variable. Equivalent to calling “attr:name” on each name in turn. String arguments are converted to symbols. Returns an array of defined method names as symbols.

Creates an accessor method to allow assignment to the attribute symbol.id2name. String arguments are converted to symbols. Returns an array of defined method names as symbols.

Defines a named attribute for this module, where the name is symbol.id2name, creating an instance variable (@name) and a corresponding access method to read it. Also creates a method called name= to set the attribute. String arguments are converted to symbols. Returns an array of defined method names as symbols.

module Mod
  attr_accessor(:one, :two) #=> [:one, :one=, :two, :two=]
end
Mod.instance_methods.sort   #=> [:one, :one=, :two, :two=]

Makes a list of existing constants private.

Makes a list of existing constants deprecated. Attempt to refer to them will produce a warning.

module HTTP
  NotFound = Exception.new
  NOT_FOUND = NotFound # previous version of the library used this name

  deprecate_constant :NOT_FOUND
end

HTTP::NOT_FOUND
# warning: constant HTTP::NOT_FOUND is deprecated

Returns true if the arguments define a valid ordinal date, false otherwise:

Date.valid_ordinal?(2001, 34)  # => true
Date.valid_ordinal?(2001, 366) # => false

See argument start.

Returns true if the arguments define a valid ordinal date, false otherwise:

Date.valid_date?(2001, 2, 3)  # => true
Date.valid_date?(2001, 2, 29) # => false
Date.valid_date?(2001, 2, -1) # => true

Returns true if the arguments define a valid commercial date, false otherwise:

Date.valid_commercial?(2001, 5, 6) # => true
Date.valid_commercial?(2001, 5, 8) # => false

See Date.commercial.

Equivalent to >> with argument n.

Equivalent to << with argument n.

Returns a new Time object with the same value as self; if self is a Julian date, derives its Gregorian date for conversion to the Time object:

Date.new(2001, 2, 3).to_time               # => 2001-02-03 00:00:00 -0600
Date.new(2001, 2, 3, Date::JULIAN).to_time # => 2001-02-16 00:00:00 -0600
