# frozen_string_literal: true module Kernel module_function # Zeitwerk's main idea is to define autoloads for project constants, and then # intercept them when triggered in this thin `Kernel#require` wrapper. # # That allows us to complete the circle, invoke callbacks, autovivify modules, # define autoloads for just autoloaded namespaces, update internal state, etc. # # On the other hand, if you publish a new version of a gem that is now managed # by Zeitwerk, client code can reference directly your classes and modules and # should not require anything. But if someone has legacy require calls around, # they will work as expected, and in a compatible way. This feature is by now # EXPERIMENTAL and UNDOCUMENTED. alias_method :zeitwerk_original_require, :require class << self alias_method :zeitwerk_original_require, :require end # @sig (String) -> true | false def require(path) if loader = Zeitwerk::Registry.loader_for(path) if path.end_with?(".rb") required = zeitwerk_original_require(path) loader.__on_file_autoloaded(path) if required required else loader.__on_dir_autoloaded(path) true end else required = zeitwerk_original_require(path) if required abspath = $LOADED_FEATURES.last if loader = Zeitwerk::Registry.loader_for(abspath) loader.__on_file_autoloaded(abspath) end end required end end # By now, I have seen no way so far to decorate require_relative. # # For starters, at least in CRuby, require_relative does not delegate to # require. Both require and require_relative delegate the bulk of their work # to an internal C function called rb_require_safe. So, our require wrapper is # not executed. # # On the other hand, we cannot use the aliasing technique above because # require_relative receives a path relative to the directory of the file in # which the call is performed. If a wrapper here invoked the original method, # Ruby would resolve the relative path taking lib/zeitwerk as base directory. # # A workaround could be to extract the base directory from caller_locations, # but what if someone else decorated require_relative before us? You can't # really know with certainty where's the original call site in the stack. # # However, the main use case for require_relative is to load files from your # own project. Projects managed by Zeitwerk don't do this for files managed by # Zeitwerk, precisely. end
