Heresy

Adds all sorts of things to Ruby that are basically blasphemy.

You may also be interested in Net::Socket, which provides an improved socket API.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'heresy'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install heresy

To enable all of Heresy, you can use require "heresy/all".

Otherwise, you can require the individual files.

require "heresy/string"

"{2} {1} {foo} {bar}".format('1', '2', foo: 'foo', 'bar' => 'bar')
# => "2 1 foo bar"

require "heresy/default"

def foo(bar = default)
  bar = "default value for bar" if bar.default?

  bar
end

foo      #=> "default value for bar"
foo(1)   #=> 1
foo(nil) #=> nil

Instead of:

attr_accessor :foo, :bar, :baz
protected :foo, :bar, :baz

attr_reader :foo2, :bar2, :baz2
protected :foo2, :bar2, :baz2

attr_writer :foo3, :bar3, :baz3
protected :foo3, :bar3, :baz3

you can do:

require "heresy/scoped_accessors"

protected accessor(:foo, :bar, :baz)
protected reader(:foo2, :bar2, :baz2)
protected writer(:foo3, :bar3, :baz3)

And ditto for private and public.

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
