def blank?
  respond_to?(:empty?) ? !!empty? : !self
end

#ctry(*args) ⇒ Object

Chained try allows writing

str.ctry(:mb_chars, :downcase, :dasherize)

instead of

str.try(:mb_chars).try(:downcase).try(:dasherize)

Only works for methods that don’t take any arguments.

def ctry(*args)
  first, *rest = args
  if rest.any?
    try(first).ctry(*rest)
  else
    try(first)
  end
end

#identity ⇒ Object

Returns self. If given a block, it works a lot like Object#tap

Examples

[1,2,3,5,7].consecutive_by(&:identity)
=> [[1, 2, 3], [5], [7]]

#try(*args, &b) ⇒ Object

Credit goes to the active_support contributors github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/object/try.rb

Invokes the public method whose name goes as first argument just like public_send does, except that if the receiver does not respond to it the call returns nil rather than raising an exception.
