Method: Nanoc::Core::Context#initialize

Defined in:
lib/nanoc/core/context.rb

#initialize(hash) ⇒ Context

Creates a new context based off the contents of the hash.

Each pair in the hash will be converted to an instance variable and an instance method. For example, passing the hash ‘{ :foo => ’bar’ }‘ will cause `@foo` to have the value `“bar”`, and the instance method #foo to return the same value `“bar”`.

Examples:

Defining a context and accessing values


context = Nanoc::Core::Context.new(
  :name     => 'Max Payne',
  :location => 'in a cheap motel'
)
context.instance_eval do
  "I am #{name} and I am hiding #{@location}."
end
# => "I am Max Payne and I am hiding in a cheap motel."

Parameters:

  • hash (Hash) —

    A list of key-value pairs to make available
