Instance Method Details

#build(_klass) ⇒ Symbol

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.

Adds the method to given klass

This should be implemented on child classes

Examples:

Using block method with no options

class MyModel
end

instance = MyModel.new

method_definition = Sinclair::MethodDefinition.from(
  :sequence, '@x = @x.to_i ** 2 + 1'
)

method_definition.build(klass)  # adds instance_method :sequence to
                               # MyModel instances

instance.instance_variable_get(:@x)        # returns nil

instance.sequence               # returns 1
instance.sequence               # returns 2
instance.sequence               # returns 5

instance.instance_variable_get(:@x)        # returns 5

Using string method with no options

class MyModel
end

instance = MyModel.new

method_definition = Sinclair::MethodDefinition.from(:sequence) do
  @x = @x.to_i ** 2 + 1
end

method_definition.build(klass)  # adds instance_method :sequence to
                               # MyModel instances

instance.instance_variable_get(:@sequence) # returns nil
instance.instance_variable_get(:@x)        # returns nil

instance.sequence               # returns 1
instance.sequence               # returns 1 (cached value)

instance.instance_variable_get(:@sequence) # returns 1
instance.instance_variable_get(:@x)        # returns 1

Parameters:

  • _klass (Class) —

    class which will receive the new method

Returns:

  • (Symbol) —

    name of the created method
