Overview

This class is part of a private API. This class may only be used in the Homebrew/brew repository. Third parties should avoid using this class if possible, as it may be removed or changed without warning.

– Most objects are cloneable, but not all. For example you can’t dup methods:

method(:puts).dup # => TypeError: allocator undefined for Method

Classes may signal their instances are not duplicable removing +dup+/+clone+ or raising exceptions from them. So, to dup an arbitrary object you normally use an optimistic approach and are ready to catch an exception, say:

arbitrary_object.dup rescue object

Rails dups objects in a few critical spots where they are not that arbitrary. That rescue is very expensive (like 40 times slower than a predicate), and it is often triggered.

That’s why we hardcode the following cases and check duplicable? instead of using that rescue idiom. ++

Instance Method Details

#blank?Boolean

This method is part of a private API. This method may only be used in the Homebrew/brew repository. Third parties should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or changed without warning.

An object is blank if it’s false, empty, or a whitespace string. For example, +nil+, ‘’, ‘ ‘, [], {}, and +false+ are all blank.

This simplifies

!address   address.empty?

to

address.blank?

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

def blank?
  respond_to?(:empty?) ? !!T.unsafe(self).empty? : false
end

#deep_dupT.self_type

This method is part of a private API. This method may only be used in the Homebrew/brew repository. Third parties should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or changed without warning.

Returns a deep copy of object if it’s duplicable. If it’s not duplicable, returns +self+.

object = Object.new dup = object.deep_dup dup.instance_variable_set(:@a, 1)

object.instance_variable_defined?(:@a) # => false dup.instance_variable_defined?(:@a) # => true

Returns:

  • (T.self_type)

def deep_dup

end

#duplicable?Boolean

This method is part of a private API. This method may only be used in the Homebrew/brew repository. Third parties should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or changed without warning.

Can you safely dup this object?

False for method objects; true otherwise.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

# File 'extend/object/duplicable.rb', line 28

def duplicable? = true

#presenceT.self_type?

This method is part of a private API. This method may only be used in the Homebrew/brew repository. Third parties should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or changed without warning.

Returns the receiver if it’s present otherwise returns +nil+. object.presence is equivalent to

object.present? ? object : nil

For example, something like

state = params[:state] if params[:state].present? country = params[:country] if params[:country].present? region = state || country || ‘US’

becomes

region = params[:state].presence   params[:country].presence   ‘US’

Returns:

  • (T.self_type, nil)

#present?Boolean

This method is part of a private API. This method may only be used in the Homebrew/brew repository. Third parties should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or changed without warning.

An object is present if it’s not blank.

Returns:
