de ejemplo para demostrar el encadenamiento de métodos que devuelven una instancia de copiado sin modificar la persona que llama. Esto podría ser una lib requerida por su aplicación.
class Foo
attr_accessor :field
def initialize
@field=[]
end
def dup
# Note: objects in @field aren't dup'ed!
super.tap{|e| e.field=e.field.dup }
end
def a
dup.tap{|e| e.field << :a }
end
def b
dup.tap{|e| e.field << :b }
end
def c
dup.tap{|e| e.field << :c }
end
end
monkeypatch: esto es lo que desea agregar a su aplicación para permitir el encadenamiento condicional
class Object
# passes self to block and returns result of block.
# More cumbersome to call than #chain_if, but useful if you want to put
# complex conditions in the block, or call a different method when your cond is false.
def chain_block(&block)
yield self
end
# passes self to block
# bool:
# if false, returns caller without executing block.
# if true, return result of block.
# Useful if your condition is simple, and you want to merely pass along the previous caller in the chain if false.
def chain_if(bool, &block)
bool ? yield(self) : self
end
end
Ejemplo de uso
# sample usage: chain_block
>> cond_a, cond_b, cond_c = true, false, true
>> f.chain_block{|e| cond_a ? e.a : e }.chain_block{|e| cond_b ? e.b : e }.chain_block{|e| cond_c ? e.c : e }
=> #<Foo:0x007fe71027ab60 @field=[:a, :c]>
# sample usage: chain_if
>> cond_a, cond_b, cond_c = false, true, false
>> f.chain_if(cond_a, &:a).chain_if(cond_b, &:b).chain_if(cond_c, &:c)
=> #<Foo:0x007fe7106a7e90 @field=[:b]>
# The chain_if call can also allow args
>> obj.chain_if(cond) {|e| e.argified_method(args) }
Me pregunto por qué a muchas personas no les interesa el encadenamiento condicional. Limpiaría bastante el código. – Kelvin
