Constructor Details

#initialize(default_direction: Trigger::IOK, &closure) ⇒ Isolator

Instantiates isolator object with corresponding default direction and closure.

Parameters:

  • closure (Proc) —

    Proc object that will be evaluated in many contexts: initial, outer and kernel. Will be used as an outer-context for the method resolution.

  • default_direction (Hash) (defaults to: Trigger::IOK) —

    a customizable set of options

Options Hash (default_direction:):

  • An (Array<Symbol>) —

    array of symbols that represents the direction of contexts which is used as default context direction. Symbiont::Trigger::IOK is chosen by default.

Raises:

Instance Method Details

#evaluate(*required_contexts, direction: default_direction) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

Starts execution of a proc object in the context of the passed object with the selected direction of method dispatching. Delegates execution to a public trigger.

Parameters:

  • required_contexts (Array<Object>) —

    A set of objects that should be used as the main context series for method resolving algorithm.

  • direction (Array<Symbol>) (defaults to: default_direction) —

    An array of symbols that represents the direction of contexts.

end

#evaluate_private(*required_contexts, direction: default_direction) ⇒ void

This method returns an undefined value.

Starts execution of a proc object in the context of the passed object with the selected direction of method dispatching. Delegates execution to a private trigger.

Parameters:

  • required_contexts (Array<Object>) —

    A set of objects that should be used as the main context series for method resolving algorithm.

  • direction (Array<Symbol>) (defaults to: default_direction) —

    An array of symbols that represents the direction of contexts.

#private_method(method_name, *required_contexts, direction: default_direction) ⇒ Method

Gets the method object taken from the context that can respond to it. Considers private methods and public methods.

Parameters:

  • method_name (Symbol, String) —

    A name of required method.

  • required_contexts (Array<Object>) —

    A set of objects that should be used as the main context series for method resolving algorithm.

  • direction (Array<Symbol>) (defaults to: default_direction) —

    An array of symbols that represents the direction of contexts.

Returns:

  • (Method)

#private_trigger(*required_contexts, direction: default_direction) ⇒ Symbiont::PrivateTrigger (private)

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.

Factory method that instantiates a private trigger with the desired execution context, the direction of method dispatching and the closure that needs to be performed.

Parameters:

  • required_contexts (Array<Object>) —

    A set of objects that should be used as the main context series for method resolving algorithm.

  • direction (Array<Symbol>) (defaults to: default_direction) —

    An array of symbols that represents the direction of contexts. Possible values:

    • Symbiont::IOK
    • Symbiont::OIK
    • Symbiont::OKI
    • Symbiont::IKO
    • Symbiont::KOI
    • Symbiont::KIO

#public_method(method_name, *required_contexts, direction: default_direction) ⇒ Method

Gets the method object taken from the context that can respond to it. Considers only public methods.

Parameters:

    A name of required method.

  • required_contexts (Array<Object>) —

    A set of objects that should be used as the main context series for method resolving algorithm.

#public_trigger(*required_contexts, direction: default_direction) ⇒ Symbiont::PublicTrigger (private)

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.

Parameters:

  • required_contexts (Array<Object>) —

    A set of objects that should be used as the main context series for method resolving algorithm.
