:flags: Flagship :ship:

Ship/unship features using flags defined with declarative DSL.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'flagship'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install flagship

Usage

Define and use a flagset

Flagship.define :app do
  enable  :stable_feature
  enable  :experimental_feature, if: ->(context) { context.current_user.staff? }
  disable :deprecate_feature
end

Flagship.select_flagset(:app)

Branch with a flag

if Flagship.enabled?(:some_feature)
  # Implement the feature here
end

Set context variables

Both of below can be called as context.foo from :if block.

# Set a value
Flagship.set_context :foo, 'FOO'

# Set a lambda
Flagship.set_context :foo, ->(context) { 'FOO' }

Or you can set a method too.

Flagship.set_context :current_user, method(:current_user)

Extend flagset

Flagship.define :common do
  enable :stable_feature
end

Flagship.define :development, extend: :common do
  enable :experimental_feature
end

Flagship.define :production, extend: :common do
  disable :experimental_feature
end

if Rails.env.production?
  Flagship.select_flagset(:production)
else
  Flagship.select_flagset(:development)
end

Override flag with ENV

You can override flags with ENV named FLAGSHIP_***.

Assuming that there is a flag :foo, you can override it with ENV FLAGSHIP_FOO=1.

Fetch all features

Flagship.features
# => Array of Flagship::Feature

Flagship.features.map(&:key)
# => Array key of enabled features

Categorize features with tags

Flagship.define :blog do
  enable :post
  enable :comment, communication: true
  enable :trackback, communication: true
end

Flagship.select_flagset(:blog)

# Fetch keys of enabled communication features
Flagship.features.select{ |feature| feature.tags[:communication] && feature.enabled? }.map(&:key)
# => [:comment, :trackback]
