Overview

Roebe::ReplaceSpaceWithUnderscore

Constant Summary collapse

REPLACE_WHICH_CHARACTER =
#

REPLACE_WHICH_CHARACTER

We will seek this character in the target file/directory.

#
' '
REPLACE_WITH_THIS_CHARACTER =
#

REPLACE_WITH_THIS_CHARACTER

And we will replace it with this character.

#
'_'
WORK_ON_DIRECTORIES_AS_WELL =
#

WORK_ON_DIRECTORIES_AS_WELL

Whether this class will include directories by default or whether it will not.

By default this will be false.

#
false
GET_RID_OF_COMMA =
#

GET_RID_OF_COMMA

If the constant GET_RID_OF_COMMA is set to true, then this class will replace all occurences of ‘,’ with ”.

#
true

set_work_on_these_entries

This class works on “entries”, which basically means files and directories. Normally the class works on files, though - this is the default behaviour.

This method should be used whenever this class should designate which files (and directories) are to be modified.

Note that some convenience-aliases exist for this method, such as .set_file().
