Instance Method Details

#[](typed_name) ⇒ Object

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Produces the value associated with the given name if defined **in this loader**, or nil if not defined. This lookup does not trigger any loading, or search of the given name. An implementor of this method may not search or look up in any other loader, and it may not define the name.

Parameters:

  • typed_name (TypedName) —

    • the type, name combination to lookup

def [] (typed_name)
  if found = get_entry(typed_name)
    found.value
  else
    nil
  end
end

#find(typed_name) ⇒ NamedEntry?

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Searches for the given name in this loader’s context (parents should already have searched their context(s) without producing a result when this method is called). An implementation of find typically caches the result.

Parameters:

  • typed_name (TypedName) —

    the type, name combination to lookup

Returns:

  • (NamedEntry, nil) —

    the entry for the loaded entry, or nil if not found

Raises:

  • (NotImplementedError)

def find(typed_name)

end

#get_entry(typed_name) ⇒ NamedEntry?

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Produces a NamedEntry if a value is bound to the given name, or nil if nothing is bound.

Parameters:

  • typed_name (TypedName) —

    the type, name combination to lookup

Returns:

  • (NamedEntry, nil) —

    the value bound in an entry

Raises:

  • (NotImplementedError)

  raise NotImplementedError.new
end

#inspect ⇒ Object

Loaders may contain references to the environment they load items within. Consequently, calling Kernel#inspect may return strings that are large enough to cause OutOfMemoryErrors on some platforms.

We do not call alias_method here as that would copy the content of to_s at this point to inspect (ie children would print out ‘loader_name` rather than their version of to_s if they chose to implement it).

#load(type, name) ⇒ Object?

Produces the value associated with the given name if already loaded, or available for loading by this loader, one of its parents, or other loaders visible to this loader. This is the method an external party should use to “get” the named element.

An implementor of this method should first check if the given name is already loaded by self, or a parent loader, and if so return that result. If not, it should call ‘find` to perform the loading.

Parameters:

  • type (:Symbol) —

    the type to load

  • name (String, Symbol) —

    the name of the entity to load

Returns:

  • (Object, nil) —

    the value or nil if not found

def load(type, name)
  if result = load_typed(TypedName.new(type, name.to_s))
    result.value
  end
end

#load_typed(typed_name) ⇒ NamedEntry?

Loads the given typed name, and returns a NamedEntry if found, else returns nil. This the same a ‘load`, but returns a NamedEntry with origin/value information.

Parameters:

  • typed_name (TypedName) —

    • the type, name combination to lookup

Returns:

  • (NamedEntry, nil) —

    the entry containing the loaded value, or nil if not found

Raises:

  • (NotImplementedError)

end

#loadables ⇒ Object

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

A loader is by default a loader for all kinds of loadables. An implementation may override if it cannot load all kinds.

#loaded_entry(typed_name, check_dependencies = false) ⇒ NamedEntry?

Returns an already loaded entry if one exists, or nil. This does not trigger loading of the given type/name.

Parameters:

  • typed_name (TypedName) —

    • the type, name combination to lookup

  • check_dependencies (Boolean) (defaults to: false) —

    • if dependencies should be checked in additiona to here and parent

Returns:

  • (NamedEntry, nil) —

    the entry containing the loaded value, or nil if not found

Raises:

  • (NotImplementedError)

end

#parent ⇒ Object

Returns the parent of the loader, or nil, if this is the top most loader. This implementation returns nil.

end

#private_loader ⇒ Object

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Produces the private loader for loaders that have a one (the visibility given to loaded entities). For loaders that does not provide a private loader, self is returned.

#set_entry(type, name, value, origin = nil) ⇒ NamedEntry?

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Binds a value to a name. The name should not start with ‘::’, but may contain multiple segments.

Parameters:

  • type (:Symbol) —

    the type of the entity being set

  • name (String, Symbol) —

    the name of the entity being set

  • origin (URI, #uri, String) (defaults to: nil) —

    the origin of the set entity, a URI, or provider of URI, or URI in string form

Returns:

Raises:

  • (NotImplementedError)
