class Prism::IfNode

Represents the use of the ‘if` keyword, either in the block form or the modifier form, or a ternary expression.

bar if foo
^^^^^^^^^^

if foo then bar end
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

foo ? bar : baz
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Attributes

consequent[R]

Represents an ‘ElseNode` or an `IfNode` when there is an `else` or an `elsif` in the `if` statement.

if foo
  bar
elsif baz
^^^^^^^^^
  qux
  ^^^
end
^^^

if foo then bar else baz end
                ^^^^^^^^^^^^
predicate[R]

The node for the condition the ‘IfNode` is testing.

if foo
   ^^^
  bar
end

bar if foo
       ^^^

foo ? bar : baz
^^^
statements[R]

Represents the body of statements that will be executed when the predicate is evaluated as truthy. Will be ‘nil` when no body is provided.

if foo
  bar
  ^^^
  baz
  ^^^

Similar to type, this method returns a symbol that you can use for splitting on the type of the node without having to do a long === chain. Note that like type, it will still be slower than using == for a single class, but should be faster in a case statement or an array comparison.

Public Instance Methods

===(other) click to toggle source

Implements case-equality for the node. This is effectively == but without comparing the value of locations. Locations are checked only for presence.

# File lib/prism/node.rb, line 8688
def ===(other)
  other.is_a?(IfNode) &&
    (if_keyword_loc.nil? == other.if_keyword_loc.nil?) &&
    (predicate === other.predicate) &&
    (then_keyword_loc.nil? == other.then_keyword_loc.nil?) &&
    (statements === other.statements) &&
    (consequent === other.consequent) &&
    (end_keyword_loc.nil? == other.end_keyword_loc.nil?)

The ‘if_keyword_loc` field will be `nil` when the `IfNode` represents a ternary expression.

  location = @if_keyword_loc
  case location

    nil

The location of the ‘then` keyword (if present) or the `?` in a ternary expression, `nil` otherwise.

if foo then bar end
       ^^^^

a ? b : c

type() click to toggle source

Sometimes you want to check an instance of a node against a list of classes to see what kind of behavior to perform. Usually this is done by calling ‘[cls1, cls2].include?(node.class)` or putting the node into a case statement and doing `case node; when cls1; when cls2; end`. Both of these approaches are relatively slow because of the constant lookups, method calls, and/or array allocations.

Instead, you can call type, which will return to you a symbol that you can use for comparison. This is faster than the other approaches because it uses a single integer comparison, but also because if you’re on CRuby you can take advantage of the fact that case statements with all symbol keys will use a jump table.
