FunctionModule

Build Status

Ruby's module functions are really a combination of private method and public singleton method. This gem offers some utility methods for manipulating module functions.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'function_module'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install function_module

Usage

Module#module_functions (public)

Returns Array of Symbol with names of module functions (both private instance method and public singleton method are defined).

Note:

  • It doesn't check method definition; even if private instance method and public singleton method are different, it is counted as module function.
  • methods in Module itself are excluded (Module.new.module_functions return empty Aryay)

Module#include_module_functions(mod) (private)

Using include_module_functions another_mod in some module,

  • include another_mod as usual.
  • extend another_mod and make module functions public (usable for singleton methods)

Module#alias_module_function(new_name, old_name) (private)

Make alias of module functions. In alias/alias_method, only instance method is aliased.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
