NAME
wrap
SYNOPSIS
non-sucking :before and :after filters for any ruby class
DESCRIPTION
yes yes, active_support does this. but crapily. with active_support you'll
need to do this
class Record
include ActiveSupport::Callbacks
define_callbacks :save
def save
run_callbacks :save do
puts "- save"
end
end
end
but hey, if a subclass forgets to call 'super' or doesn't manually run
'run_callbacks' the codez are *screwed*. that sux. why not this?
class Record
include Wrap
wrap :save
end
yes, it's that simple. you can now do
class SubRecord < Record
before :save do
special_sauce
end
def save
no_special_sauce
end
end
did you get that? the :before and :after hooks will be called no matter
what the subclass does. the method will be wrapped, period. no special
work required. of course, if the sublcass messes with 'method_added' their
will be hell to pay. that's the price for simplicity.
the callbacks are very close, but not identical to active_supports. you can
return 'false' to halt the chain, but you can also simply call 'halt!'.
another neat trick is that :before callbacks will be called with the
arguments to the wrapped method itself iff possible and :after callbacks
will be called with the result of the wrapped method, iff possible.
the test suite reads pretty damn clean. have a go.
