# YARD::Handlers::Ruby::StructHandlerMethods

Helper methods to parse @attr_* tags on a class.

@deprecated The use of +@attr+ tags are deprecated since 0.8.0 in favour of

    the +@!attribute+ directive. This module should not be relied on.

@since 0.5.6

### Public Instance Methods

add_reader_tags(klass, new_method, member) click to toggle source

Creates the auto-generated docstring for the getter method of a struct's member. This is used so the generated documentation will look just like that of an attribute defined using attr_accessor.

@param [ClassObject] klass the class whose members we're working with @param [String] member the name of the member we're generating documentation for @return [String] a docstring to be attached to the getter method for this member

    # File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 61
    def add_reader_tags(klass, new_method, member)
      member_tag = member_tag_for_member(klass, member, :read)
      return_type = return_type_from_tag(member_tag)
      getter_doc_text = member_tag ? member_tag.text : "Returns the value of attribute #{member}"
      new_method.docstring.replace(getter_doc_text)
      new_method.docstring.add_tag YARD::Tags::Tag.new(:return, "the current value of #{member}", return_type)
    end

add_writer_tags(klass, new_method, member) click to toggle source

Creates the auto-generated docstring for the setter method of a struct's member. This is used so the generated documentation will look just like that of an attribute defined using attr_accessor.

@param [ClassObject] klass the class whose members we're working with @param [String] member the name of the member we're generating documentation for @return [String] a docstring to be attached to the setter method for this member

    # File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 76
    def add_writer_tags(klass, new_method, member)
      member_tag = member_tag_for_member(klass, member, :write)
      return_type = return_type_from_tag(member_tag)
      setter_doc_text = member_tag ? member_tag.text : "Sets the attribute #{member}"
      new_method.docstring.replace(setter_doc_text)
      new_method.docstring.add_tag YARD::Tags::Tag.new(:param, "the value to set the attribute #{member} to.", return_type, "value")
      new_method.docstring.add_tag YARD::Tags::Tag.new(:return, "the newly set value", return_type)
    end

create_attributes(klass, members) click to toggle source

Creates the given member methods and attaches them to the given ClassObject.

@param [ClassObject] klass the class to generate attributes for @param [Array<String>] members a list of member names

    # File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 133
    def create_attributes(klass, members)
      # For each parameter, add reader and writers
      members.each do |member|
        klass.attributes[:instance][member] = SymbolHash[:read => nil, :write => nil]
        create_writer klass, member if create_member_method?(klass, member, :write)
        create_reader klass, member if create_member_method?(klass, member, :read)
      end
    end

create_class(classname, superclass) click to toggle source

Creates and registers a class object with the given name and superclass name. Returns it for further use.

@param [String] classname the name of the class @param [String] superclass the name of the superclass @return [ClassObject] the class object for further processing/method attaching

    # File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 91
    def create_class(classname, superclass)
      register ClassObject.new(namespace, classname) do |o|
        o.superclass = superclass if superclass
        o.superclass.type = :class if o.superclass.is_a?(Proxy)
      end
    end

create_member_method?(klass, member, type = :read) click to toggle source

Determines whether to create an attribute method based on the class's tags.

@param [ClassObject] klass the class whose tags we're searching @param [String] member the name of the struct member we need @param [Symbol] type (:read) reader method, or writer method? @return [Boolean] should the attribute be created?

    # File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 37
    def create_member_method?(klass, member, type = :read)
      return true if (klass.tags(:attr) + klass.tags(:attr_reader) + klass.tags(:attr_writer)).empty?
      return true if member_tag_for_member(klass, member, type)
      return !member_tag_for_member(klass, member, :write) if type == :read
      return !member_tag_for_member(klass, member, :read)
    end

create_reader(klass, member) click to toggle source

Creates the getter (reader) method and attaches it to the class as an attribute. Also sets up the docstring to prettify the documentation output.

@param [ClassObject] klass the class to attach the method to @param [String] member the name of the member we're generating a method for

    # File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 120
    def create_reader(klass, member)
      new_meth = register MethodObject.new(klass, member, :instance) do |o|
        o.signature ||= "def #{member}"
        o.source ||= "#{o.signature}\n  @#{member}\nend"
      end
      add_reader_tags(klass, new_meth, member)
      klass.attributes[:instance][member][:read] = new_meth
    end

create_writer(klass, member) click to toggle source

Creates the setter (writer) method and attaches it to the class as an attribute. Also sets up the docstring to prettify the documentation output.

@param [ClassObject] klass the class to attach the method to @param [String] member the name of the member we're generating a method for

    # File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 103
    def create_writer(klass, member)
      # We want to convert these members into attributes just like
      # as if they were declared using attr_accessor.
      new_meth = register MethodObject.new(klass, "#{member}=", :instance) do |o|
        o.parameters = [['value', nil]]
        o.signature ||= "def #{member}=(value)"
        o.source ||= "#{o.signature}\n  @#{member} = value\nend"
      end
      add_writer_tags(klass, new_meth, member)
      klass.attributes[:instance][member][:write] = new_meth
    end

member_tag_for_member(klass, member, type = :read) click to toggle source

Extracts the user's defined @member tag for a given class and its member. Returns nil if the user did not define a @member tag for this struct entry.

@param [ClassObject] klass the class whose tags we're searching @param [String] member the name of the struct member we need @param [Symbol] type reader method, or writer method? @return [Tags::Tag, nil] the tag matching the request, or nil if not found

    # File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 16
    def member_tag_for_member(klass, member, type = :read)
      specific_tag = type == :read ? :attr_reader : :attr_writer
      (klass.tags(specific_tag) + klass.tags(:attr)).find {|tag| tag.name == member}
    end

members_from_tags(klass) click to toggle source

Retrieves all members defined in @attr* tags

@param [ClassObject] klass the class with the attributes @return [Array<String>] the list of members defined as attributes on the class

    # File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 25
    def members_from_tags(klass)
      tags = klass.tags(:attr) + klass.tags(:attr_reader) + klass.tags(:attr_writer)
      tags.map {|t| t.name }.uniq
    end

return_type_from_tag(member_tag) click to toggle source

Gets the return type for the member in a nicely formatted string. Used to be injected into auto-generated docstrings.

@param [Tags::Tag] member_tag the tag object to check for types @return [String] the user-declared type of the struct member, or [Object] if

    the user did not define a type for this member.

    # File lib/yard/handlers/ruby/struct_handler_methods.rb, line 50
    def return_type_from_tag(member_tag)
      (member_tag && member_tag.types) ? member_tag.types : "Object"
    end
