Class: Contract

Inherits:
Contracts::Decorator show all
Defined in:
lib/contracts.rb

Overview

This is the main Contract class. When you write a new contract, you’ll write it as:

Contract [contract names] => return_value

This class also provides useful callbacks and a validation method.

Constant Summary collapse

DEFAULT_FAILURE_CALLBACK =

Default implementation of failure_callback. Provided as a block to be able to monkey patch #failure_callback only temporary and then switch it back. First important usage - for specs.

proc do |data|
  if data[:return_value]
    # this failed on the return contract
    fail ReturnContractError.new(failure_msg(data), data)
  else
    # this failed for a param contract
    fail data[:contracts].failure_exception.new(failure_msg(data), data)
  end

Class Method Details

.failure_callback(data, use_pattern_matching = true) ⇒ Object

Callback for when a contract fails. By default it raises an error and prints detailed info about the contract that failed. You can also monkeypatch this callback to do whatever you want…log the error, send you an email, print an error message, etc.

Example of monkeypatching:

def Contract.failure_callback(data)
  puts "You had an error!"
  puts failure_msg(data)
  exit
end

def self.failure_callback(data, use_pattern_matching = true)
  if data[:contracts].pattern_match? && use_pattern_matching
    return DEFAULT_FAILURE_CALLBACK.call(data)
  end

  fetch_failure_callback.call(data)
end

.failure_msg(data) ⇒ Object

Given a hash, prints out a failure message. This function is used by the default #failure_callback method and uses the hash passed into the failure_callback method.

  header = if data[:return_value]
             "Contract violation for return value:"
           else
             "Contract violation for argument #{data[:arg_pos]} of #{data[:total_args]}:"

.make_validator(contract) ⇒ Object

This is a little weird. For each contract we pre-make a proc to validate it so we don’t have to go through this decision tree every time. Seems silly but it saves us a bunch of time (4.3sec vs 5.2sec)

.override_failure_callback(&blk) ⇒ Object

Used to override failure_callback without monkeypatching.

Takes: block parameter, that should accept one argument - data.

Example usage:

Contract.override_failure_callback do |data|
  puts "You had an error"
  puts failure_msg(data)
  exit
end

# File 'lib/contracts.rb', line 202

def self.restore_failure_callback
  @failure_callback = DEFAULT_FAILURE_CALLBACK
end

.valid?(arg, contract) ⇒ Boolean

Used to verify if an argument satisfies a contract.

Takes: an argument and a contract.

Returns: a tuple: [Boolean, metadata]. The boolean indicates whether the contract was valid or not. If it wasn’t, metadata contains some useful information about the failure.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)
