  constraint = parse(type)
  if constraint.check(obj)
    Success.new
  else
    Failure.new
  end
end

#parse(type) ⇒ TypeConstraint

Parse a type string using the Parser, and return a TypeConstraint instance representing the described type.

Examples:

type = YardTypes.parse('MyClass, #quacks_like_my_class')
type.check(some_object)

Parameters:

  • type (String, Array<String>) —

    The YARD type description
