module YARD::Handlers::Ruby::StructHandlerMethods

Helper methods to parse @attr_* tags on a class.

@deprecated The use of +@attr+ tags are deprecated since 0.8.0 in favour of

the +@!attribute+ directive. This module should not be relied on.

@since 0.5.6

Public Instance Methods

add_reader_tags(klass, new_method, member) click to toggle source

Creates the auto-generated docstring for the getter method of a struct's member. This is used so the generated documentation will look just like that of an attribute defined using attr_accessor.

@param [ClassObject] klass the class whose members we're working with @param [String] member the name of the member we're generating documentation for @return [String] a docstring to be attached to the getter method for this member

# File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 62
def add_reader_tags(klass, new_method, member)
  member_tag = member_tag_for_member(klass, member, :read)
  return_type = return_type_from_tag(member_tag)
  getter_doc_text = member_tag ? member_tag.text : "Returns the value of attribute #{member}"
  new_method.docstring.replace(getter_doc_text)
  new_method.add_tag YARD::Tags::Tag.new(:return, "the current value of #{member}", return_type)
end
add_writer_tags(klass, new_method, member) click to toggle source

Creates the auto-generated docstring for the setter method of a struct's member. This is used so the generated documentation will look just like that of an attribute defined using attr_accessor.

@param [ClassObject] klass the class whose members we're working with @param [String] member the name of the member we're generating documentation for @return [String] a docstring to be attached to the setter method for this member

# File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 77

  new_method.docstring.replace(setter_doc_text)
  new_method.add_tag YARD::Tags::Tag.new(:param, "the value to set the attribute #{member} to.", return_type, "value")
  new_method.add_tag YARD::Tags::Tag.new(:return, "the newly set value", return_type)
end
create_attributes(klass, members) click to toggle source

Creates the given member methods and attaches them to the given ClassObject.

@param [ClassObject] klass the class to generate attributes for @param [Array<String>] members a list of member names

# File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 134
def create_attributes(klass, members)
  # For each parameter, add reader and writers
  members.each do |member|
    next if klass.attributes[:instance][member]
    klass.attributes[:instance][member] = SymbolHash[:read => nil, :write => nil]
    create_writer klass, member if create_member_method?(klass, member, :write)
    create_reader klass, member if create_member_method?(klass, member, :read)
  end
end
create_class(classname, superclass) click to toggle source

Creates and registers a class object with the given name and superclass name. Returns it for further use.

@param [String] classname the name of the class @param [String] superclass the name of the superclass @return [ClassObject] the class object for further processing/method attaching

# File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 92
def create_class(classname, superclass)
  register ClassObject.new(namespace, classname) do |o|
    o.superclass = superclass if superclass
    o.superclass.type = :class if o.superclass.is_a?(Proxy)
  end
end
create_member_method?(klass, member, type = :read) click to toggle source

Determines whether to create an attribute method based on the class's tags.

@param [ClassObject] klass the class whose tags we're searching @param [String] member the name of the struct member we need @param [Symbol] type (:read) reader method, or writer method? @return [Boolean] should the attribute be created?

# File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 38
def create_member_method?(klass, member, type = :read)
  return true if (klass.tags(:attr) + klass.tags(:attr_reader) + klass.tags(:attr_writer)).empty?
  return true if member_tag_for_member(klass, member, type)
  return !member_tag_for_member(klass, member, :write) if type == :read
  !member_tag_for_member(klass, member, :read)
end
create_reader(klass, member) click to toggle source

Creates the getter (reader) method and attaches it to the class as an attribute. Also sets up the docstring to prettify the documentation output.

@param [ClassObject] klass the class to attach the method to @param [String] member the name of the member we're generating a method for

# File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 121
def create_reader(klass, member)
  new_meth = register MethodObject.new(klass, member, :instance) do |o|
    o.signature ||= "def #{member}"
    o.source ||= "#{o.signature}\n  @#{member}\nend"
  end
  add_reader_tags(klass, new_meth, member)
  klass.attributes[:instance][member][:read] = new_meth
end
create_writer(klass, member) click to toggle source

Creates the setter (writer) method and attaches it to the class as an attribute. Also sets up the docstring to prettify the documentation output.

@param [ClassObject] klass the class to attach the method to @param [String] member the name of the member we're generating a method for

# File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 104
def create_writer(klass, member)
  # We want to convert these members into attributes just like
  # as if they were declared using attr_accessor.
  new_meth = register MethodObject.new(klass, "#{member}=", :instance) do |o|
    o.parameters = [['value', nil]]
    o.signature ||= "def #{member}=(value)"
    o.source ||= "#{o.signature}\n  @#{member} = value\nend"
  end
  add_writer_tags(klass, new_meth, member)
  klass.attributes[:instance][member][:write] = new_meth
end
member_tag_for_member(klass, member, type = :read) click to toggle source

Extracts the user's defined @member tag for a given class and its member. Returns nil if the user did not define a @member tag for this struct entry.

@param [ClassObject] klass the class whose tags we're searching @param [String] member the name of the struct member we need @param [Symbol] type reader method, or writer method? @return [Tags::Tag, nil] the tag matching the request, or nil if not found

# File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 17
def member_tag_for_member(klass, member, type = :read)
  specific_tag = type == :read ? :attr_reader : :attr_writer
  (klass.tags(specific_tag) + klass.tags(:attr)).find {|tag| tag.name == member }
end
members_from_tags(klass) click to toggle source

Retrieves all members defined in @attr* tags

@param [ClassObject] klass the class with the attributes @return [Array<String>] the list of members defined as attributes on the class

# File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 26
def members_from_tags(klass)
  tags = klass.tags(:attr) + klass.tags(:attr_reader) + klass.tags(:attr_writer)
  tags.map(&:name).uniq
end
return_type_from_tag(member_tag) click to toggle source

Gets the return type for the member in a nicely formatted string. Used to be injected into auto-generated docstrings.

@param [Tags::Tag] member_tag the tag object to check for types @return [String] the user-declared type of the struct member, or [Object] if

the user did not define a type for this member.
# File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 51
def return_type_from_tag(member_tag)
  member_tag && member_tag.types ? member_tag.types : "Object"
