module Bundler::Thor::Base::ClassMethods

Public Instance Methods

all_commands() click to toggle source

Returns the commands for this Bundler::Thor class and all subclasses.

Returns

OrderedHash

An ordered hash with commands names as keys and Bundler::Thor::Command objects as values.

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 370
def all_commands
  @all_commands ||= from_superclass(:all_commands, Bundler::Thor::CoreExt::OrderedHash.new)
  @all_commands.merge!(commands)
end
Also aliased as: all_tasks
all_tasks()
Alias for: all_commands
argument(name, options = {}) click to toggle source

Adds an argument to the class and creates an attr_accessor for it.

Arguments are different from options in several aspects. The first one is how they are parsed from the command line, arguments are retrieved from position:

thor command NAME

Instead of:

thor command --name=NAME

Besides, arguments are used inside your code as an accessor (self.argument), while options are all kept in a hash (self.options).

Finally, arguments cannot have type :default or :boolean but can be optional (supplying :optional => :true or :required => false), although you cannot have a required argument after a non-required argument. If you try it, an error is raised.

Parameters

name<Symbol>

The name of the argument.

options<Hash>

Described below.

Options

:desc - Description for the argument. :required - If the argument is required or not. :optional - If the argument is optional or not. :type - The type of the argument, can be :string, :hash, :array, :numeric. :default - Default value for this argument. It cannot be required and have default values. :banner - String to show on usage notes.

Errors

ArgumentError

Raised if you supply a required argument after a non required one.

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 232
def argument(name, options = {})
  is_thor_reserved_word?(name, :argument)
  no_commands { attr_accessor name }

  required = if options.key?(:optional)
    !options[:optional]
  elsif options.key?(:required)
    options[:required]
  else
    options[:default].nil?
  end

  remove_argument name

  if required
    arguments.each do |argument|
      next if argument.required?
      raise ArgumentError, "You cannot have #{name.to_s.inspect} as required argument after " \
                          "the non-required argument #{argument.human_name.inspect}."
    end
  end

  options[:required] = required

  arguments << Bundler::Thor::Argument.new(name, options)
end
arguments() click to toggle source

Returns this class arguments, looking up in the ancestors chain.

Returns

Array

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 264
def arguments
  @arguments ||= from_superclass(:arguments, [])
end
check_default_type!() click to toggle source

If you want to raise an error when the default value of an option does not match the type call check_default_type! This is disabled by default for compatibility.

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 157
def check_default_type!
  @check_default_type = true
end
check_unknown_options!() click to toggle source

If you want to raise an error for unknown options, call check_unknown_options! This is disabled by default to allow dynamic invocations.

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 142
def check_unknown_options!
  @check_unknown_options = true
end
class_option(name, options = {}) click to toggle source

Adds an option to the set of class options

Parameters

name<Symbol>

The name of the argument.

options<Hash>

Described below.

Options

:desc

– Description for the argument.

:required

– If the argument is required or not.

:default

– Default value for this argument.

:group

– The group for this options. Use by class options to output options in different levels.

:aliases

– Aliases for this option. Note: Bundler::Thor follows a convention of one-dash-one-letter options. Thus aliases like “-something” wouldn't be parsed; use either “--something” or “-s” instead.

:type

– The type of the argument, can be :string, :hash, :array, :numeric or :boolean.

:banner

String to show on usage notes.

:hide

– If you want to hide this option from the help.

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 299
def class_option(name, options = {})
  build_option(name, options, class_options)
end
class_options(options = nil) click to toggle source

Adds a bunch of options to the set of class options.

class_options :foo => false, :bar => :required, :baz => :string

If you prefer more detailed declaration, check class_option.

Parameters

Hash[Symbol => Object]

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 277
def class_options(options = nil)
  @class_options ||= from_superclass(:class_options, {})
  build_options(options, @class_options) if options
  @class_options
end
commands() click to toggle source

Returns the commands for this Bundler::Thor class.

Returns

OrderedHash

An ordered hash with commands names as keys and Bundler::Thor::Command objects as values.

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 359
def commands
  @commands ||= Bundler::Thor::CoreExt::OrderedHash.new
end
Also aliased as: tasks
group(name = nil) click to toggle source

Defines the group. This is used when thor list is invoked so you can specify that only commands from a pre-defined group will be shown. Defaults to standard.

Parameters

name<String|Symbol>

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 345
def group(name = nil)
  if name
    @group = name.to_s
  else
    @group ||= from_superclass(:group, "standard")
  end
end
namespace(name = nil) click to toggle source

Sets the namespace for the Bundler::Thor or Bundler::Thor::Group class. By default the namespace is retrieved from the class name. If your Bundler::Thor class is named Scripts::MyScript, the help method, for example, will be called as:

thor scripts:my_script -h

If you change the namespace:

namespace :my_scripts

You change how your commands are invoked:

thor my_scripts -h

Finally, if you change your namespace to default:

namespace :default

Your commands can be invoked with a shortcut. Instead of:

thor :my_command
# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 448
def namespace(name = nil)
  if name
    @namespace = name.to_s
  else
    @namespace ||= Bundler::Thor::Util.namespace_from_thor_class(self)
  end
end
no_commands() { || ... } click to toggle source

All methods defined inside the given block are not added as commands.

So you can do:

class MyScript < Bundler::Thor
  no_commands do
    def this_is_not_a_command
    end
  end
end

You can also add the method and remove it from the command list:

class MyScript < Bundler::Thor
  def this_is_not_a_command
  end
  remove_command :this_is_not_a_command
end
# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 418
def no_commands
  @no_commands = true
  yield
ensure
  @no_commands = false
end
Also aliased as: no_tasks
no_tasks()
Alias for: no_commands
public_command(*names) click to toggle source

Allows to use private methods from parent in child classes as commands.

  names.each do |name|
    class_options.delete(name)
  end
end
remove_command(*names) click to toggle source

Removes a given command from this Bundler::Thor class. This is usually done if you are inheriting from another class and don't want it to be available anymore.

By default it only remove the mapping to the command. But you can supply :undefine => true to undefine the method from the class as well.

Parameters

name<Symbol|String>

The name of the command to be removed

options<Hash>

You can give :undefine => true if you want commands the method to be undefined from the class as well.

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 388
def remove_command(*names)
  options = names.last.is_a?(Hash) ? names.pop : {}

  names.each do |name|
    commands.delete(name.to_s)

  end
end
Also aliased as: remove_task
remove_task(*names)
Alias for: remove_command
start(given_args = ARGV, config = {}) click to toggle source

Parses the command and options from the given args, instantiate the class and invoke the command. This method is used when the arguments must be parsed from an array. If you are inside Ruby and want to use a Bundler::Thor class, you can simply initialize it:

script = MyScript.new(args, options, config)
script.invoke(:command, first_arg, second_arg, third_arg)
# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 464
def start(given_args = ARGV, config = {})
  config[:shell] ||= Bundler::Thor::Base.shell.new
  dispatch(nil, given_args.dup, nil, config)
rescue Bundler::Thor::Error => e
  config[:debug] || ENV["THOR_DEBUG"] == "1" ? (raise e) : config[:shell].error(e.message)
  exit(1) if exit_on_failure?
rescue Errno::EPIPE
  # This happens if a thor command is piped to something like `head`,
  # which closes the pipe when it's done reading. This will also
  # mean that if the pipe is closed, further unnecessary
  # computation will not occur.
  exit(0)
end
strict_args_position!() click to toggle source

If you want only strict string args (useful when cascading thor classes), call strict_args_position! This is disabled by default to allow dynamic invocations.

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 185
def strict_args_position!
  @strict_args_position = true
end
tasks()

Protected Instance Methods

basename() click to toggle source

The basename of the program invoking the thor class.

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 653
def basename
  File.basename($PROGRAM_NAME).split(" ").first
end
exit_on_failure?() click to toggle source

A flag that makes the process exit with status 1 if any error happens.

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 646
def exit_on_failure?
  false
end
from_superclass(method, default = nil) click to toggle source

Retrieves a value from superclass. If it reaches the baseclass, returns default.

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 626
def from_superclass(method, default = nil)
  if self == baseclass || !superclass.respond_to?(method, true)
    default
  else
    value = superclass.send(method)

    # Ruby implements `dup` on Object, but raises a `TypeError`
    # if the method is called on immediates. As a result, we
    # don't have a good way to check whether dup will succeed
    # without calling it and rescuing the TypeError.
    begin
      value.dup
    rescue TypeError
      value
    end

  end
end
inherited(klass) click to toggle source

Everytime someone inherits from a Bundler::Thor class, register the klass and file into baseclass.

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 599
def inherited(klass)
  Bundler::Thor::Base.register_klass_file(klass)
  klass.instance_variable_set(:@no_commands, false)
end
method_added(meth) click to toggle source

Fire this callback whenever a method is added. Added methods are tracked as commands by invoking the create_command method.

# File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 606
def method_added(meth)
  meth = meth.to_s

  if meth == "initialize"
    initialize_added
    return
