Instance Method Details

#of(*pathsegs) ⇒ Pathname Also known as: path_to

Expand a path with late-evaluated segments. Calls expand_path -- '~' becomes $HOME, '..' is expanded, etc.

Examples:

A symbol represents a segment to expand

Pathname.register_path(:conf_dir, '/etc/delorean')
Pathname.path_to(:conf_dir)                  # '/etc/delorean'
Pathname.path_to(:conf_dir, modacity.conf)   # '/etc/delorean/modacity.conf'

References aren't expanded until they're read

Pathname.register_path(:conf_dir, '/etc/delorean')
Pathname.register_path(:modacity, :conf_dir, 'modacity.conf')
Pathname.path_to(:modacity)                  # '/etc/delorean/modacity.conf'
# if we change the conf_dir, everything under it changes as well
Pathname.register_path(:conf_dir, '~/.delorean.d')
Pathname.path_to(:modacity)                  # '/home/flip/delorean.d/modacity.conf'

References can be relative, and can hold symbols themselves

Pathname.register_path(:conf_dir, '/etc', :appname, :environment)
Pathname.register_path(:appname, 'happy_app')
Pathname.register_path(:environment, 'dev')
Pathname.path_to(:conf_dir)                  # '/etc/happy_app/dev'

Parameters:

  • pathsegs (Array<[String,Symbol]>) —

    any mixture of strings (literal sub-paths) and symbols (interpreted as references)

Returns:

  • (Pathname) —

    A single expanded Pathname

#relpath_to(*pathsegs) ⇒ Object Also known as: relative_path_to

Expand a path with late-evaluated segments Calls cleanpath (removing // double slashes and useless ..s), but does not reference the filesystem or make paths absolute
