Method: String.interpolate

Defined in:

lib/core/facets/string/interpolate.rb

.interpolate(&str) ⇒ Object

Interpolate provides a means of externally using Ruby string interpolation mechinism.

try = "hello"
str = "\#{try}!!!"
String.interpolate{ str }    #=> "hello!!!"

Note this uses #eval under the hood. We do not recommend that it serve in place of a good templating system. But, it can be useful for simple cases.

The block is neccessary in order to get then binding of the caller.
