Method: RubyPython::RubyPyProxy#method_missing

Defined in:
lib/rubypython/rubypyproxy.rb

#method_missing(name, *args, &block) ⇒ Object

Delegates method calls to proxied Python objects.

Delegation Rules

  1. If the method ends with a question-mark (e.g., nil?), it can only be a Ruby method on RubyPyProxy. Attempt to reveal it (RubyPyProxy is a BlankObject) and call it.

  2. If the method ends with equals signs (e.g., value=) it’s a setter and we can always set an attribute on a Python object.

  3. If the method ends with an exclamation point (e.g., foo!) we are attempting to call a method with keyword arguments.

  4. The Python method or value will be called, if it’s callable.

  5. RubyPython will wrap the return value in a RubyPyProxy object

  6. If a block has been provided, the wrapped return value will be passed into the block.

Raises:

  • (NoMethodError)
