`class Method`

A Ruby-specific method.

Definitions

`def initialize(*arguments, receiver: nil, **options)`

Initialize a new method definition.

Signature

parameter　arguments　Array: The definition arguments.
parameter　receiver　String: The method receiver (for class methods).
parameter　options　Hash: Additional options.

Implementation

def initialize(*arguments, receiver: nil, **options)
	super(*arguments, **options)
	@receiver = receiver
end

`def nested_name`

Generate a nested name for the method.

Implementation

def nested_name
	if @receiver
		".#{self.name}"
	else
		"##{self.name}"
	end
end

`def short_form`

The short form of the method. e.g. def puts or def self.puts.

Implementation

def short_form
	if @receiver
		"def #{@receiver}.#{@node.name}"
	else
		"def #{@node.name}"
	end
end

`def arguments_node`

The node which contains the function arguments.

Implementation

def arguments_node
	@node.parameters
end

`def long_form`

The long form of the method. e.g. def puts(*lines, separator: "\n") or def self.puts(*lines, separator: "\n").

Implementation

def long_form
	if arguments_node = self.arguments_node
		if @receiver
			"def #{@receiver}.#{@node.name}(#{arguments_node.location.slice})"
		else
			"def #{@node.name}(#{arguments_node.location.slice})"
		end
	else
		self.short_form
	end
end

`def qualified_form`

The fully qualified name of the block. e.g. ::Barnyard#foo.

Implementation

def qualified_form
	self.qualified_name
end

`def qualified_name`

Override the qualified_name method to handle method name joining correctly

Implementation

def qualified_name
	@qualified_name ||= begin
		if @parent
			[@parent.qualified_name, self.nested_name].join("")
		else
			self.nested_name
		end
	end
end

`def convert(kind)`

Convert the method to a different kind of definition.

Signature

parameter　kind　Symbol: The kind to convert to.

Implementation

def convert(kind)
	case kind
	when :attribute
		Attribute.new(@node, @name,
			comments: @comments, parent: @parent, language: @language
		)
	else
		super
	end
end
