class OptionParser::List

Simple option list providing mapping from short and/or long option string to OptionParser::Switch and mapping from acceptable argument to matching pattern and converter pair. Also provides summary feature.

Attributes

Map from acceptable argument types to pattern and converter pairs.

List of all switches and summary string.

Map from long style option switches to actual switch objects.

Map from short style option switches to actual switch objects.

Public Class Methods

Just initializes all instance variables.

# File lib/optparse.rb, line 816
def initialize
  @atype = {}
  @short = OptionMap.new
  @long = OptionMap.new
  @list = []
end

Public Instance Methods

See OptionParser.accept.

# File lib/optparse.rb, line 837
def accept(t, pat = /.*/m, &block)
  if pat
    pat.respond_to?(:match) or
      raise TypeError, "has no `match'", ParseError.filter_backtrace(caller(2))
  else
    pat = t if t.respond_to?(:match)
  end
  unless block
    block = pat.method(:convert).to_proc if pat.respond_to?(:convert)
  end
  @atype[t] = [pat, block]
end

Appends switch at the tail of the list, and associates short, long and negated long options. Arguments are:

switch

OptionParser::Switch instance to be inserted.

short_opts

List of short style options.

long_opts

List of long style options.

nolong_opts

List of long style options with “no-” prefix.

append(switch, short_opts, long_opts, nolong_opts)
# File lib/optparse.rb, line 901
def append(*args)
  update(*args)
  @list.push(args[0])
end

Searches list id for opt and the optional patterns for completion pat. If icase is true, the search is case insensitive. The result is returned or yielded if a block is given. If it isn’t found, nil is returned.

# File lib/optparse.rb, line 923
def complete(id, opt, icase = false, *pat, &block)
  __send__(id).complete(opt, icase, *pat, &block)
end

Iterates over each option, passing the option to the block.

# File lib/optparse.rb, line 934
def each_option(&block)
  list.each(&block)
end
# File lib/optparse.rb, line 927
def get_candidates(id)
  yield __send__(id).keys
end

Inserts switch at the head of the list, and associates short, long and negated long options. Arguments are:

switch

OptionParser::Switch instance to be inserted.

short_opts

List of short style options.

long_opts

List of long style options.

nolong_opts

List of long style options with “no-” prefix.

prepend(switch, short_opts, long_opts, nolong_opts)
# File lib/optparse.rb, line 885
def prepend(*args)
  update(*args)
  @list.unshift(args[0])
end

See OptionParser.reject.

# File lib/optparse.rb, line 853
def reject(t)
  @atype.delete(t)
end

Creates the summary table, passing each line to the block (without newline). The arguments args are passed along to the summarize method which is called on every option.

# File lib/optparse.rb, line 943
def summarize(*args, &block)
  sum = []
  list.reverse_each do |opt|
    if opt.respond_to?(:summarize) # perhaps OptionParser::Switch
      s = []
      opt.summarize(*args) {|l| s << l}
      sum.concat(s.reverse)
    elsif !opt or opt.empty?
      sum << ""
    elsif opt.respond_to?(:each_line)
      sum.concat([*opt.each_line].reverse)
    else
      sum.concat([*opt.each].reverse)
    end
  end
  sum.reverse_each(&block)
end
