ExecIf

This gem adds exec_if method to Object class.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'exec_if'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install exec_if

Usage

require 'exec_if'

[1, 2, 3, 4, 5].map do |i|
  i.exec_if(i.even?) { 'even' }
end # => [1, 'even', 3, 'even', 5]

It is especially useful for long method chains.

Item.active.
  exec_if(params[:published_to].present?) { where(published_at: nil..params[:published_to]) }.
  exec_if(params[:name].present?) { where("name LIKE ?", "%#{params[:name]}%")}.
  order(published_at: :desc)

Condition part of exec_if can be one of these:

  • Proc, which is called with self
  • Symbol, which is the name of the message of send
  • String, which is evaluated in context of self
  • Object, which is simply used to check truthyness

See examples directory for usage.
