Including methods into blocks
Anyone know how to get this to work if it's possible?
class Foo
def self.go(&block)
class << block
include Bar
end
puts "Within Foo#go: #{block.methods.include? 'baz'}"
block.call
end
end
module Bar
def baz
puts "I'm happily in my place!"
end
end
Foo.go {
puts "Within actual block: #{methods.include? 'baz'}"
baz
}
This gets the output:
Within Foo#go: true
Within actual block: false
NameError: undefined local variable or method ‘b开发者_如何学Caz’ for main:Object
EDIT: when I print out the block's class in Foo#go, it's Proc, but when I print it out within the Proc, it's Object. Could this be related?
You can't do this. The reason for what you're seeing is that there are two different contexts here. One is the context of the block, which closes over the context where it's defined. The other is the context of the Proc object wrapper, which is just the same as any other object context and completely unrelated to the context of the block itself.
I think the closest you'll get is to instance_eval
the block using a context object that has the methods you want, but then the block won't have access to the self
that existed where it was defined. It's up to you whether that makes sense for the method you want to write.
The other option is to pass the block an actual receiver for the baz
method.
You could use eval
with Proc#binding
:
module Bar
def baz
puts "hi from baz!"
end
end
def go(&block)
eval('include Bar', block.binding)
block[]
end
baz #=> NameError
go { baz } #=> "hi from baz!"
baz #=> "hi from baz!"
But unless you use a mixin/mixout framework (like mixico or mixology), you'll be placing the methods from the included module into the lexical scope, so they'll still be accessible once the block returns.
require 'rubygems'
require 'mixico'
module Bar
def baz
puts "hi from baz!"
end
end
def go(&block)
Module.mix_eval(Bar, &block)
end
baz #=> NameError
go { baz } #=> "hi from baz!"
baz #=> NameError
Here's a good article on different ways to use a DSL from within a block.
Another alternative, following on from rampion, is to dup the context of the block before mixing into it, this way you're not messing up the context after you've finished.
module Bar
def baz
puts "hi from baz!"
end
end
def go(&block)
dup_context = eval('self', block.binding).dup
dup_context.send(:include, Bar)
dup_context.instance_eval &block
end
Note this will only be useful to you if you're not running any mutator methods in the block
