# module Bundler::Thor::Base::ClassMethods

### Public Instance Methods

all_commands() click to toggle source

Returns the commands for this Bundler::Thor class and all subclasses.

#### Returns¶ ↑

OrderedHash

  An ordered hash with commands names as keys and `Bundler::Thor::Command` objects as values.

    # File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 370
    def all_commands
      @all_commands ||= from_superclass(:all_commands, Bundler::Thor::CoreExt::OrderedHash.new)
      @all_commands.merge!(commands)
    end

Also aliased as: all_tasks
all_tasks()
Alias for: all_commands
argument(name, options = {}) click to toggle source

Adds an argument to the class and creates an attr_accessor for it.

Arguments are different from options in several aspects. The first one is how they are parsed from the command line, arguments are retrieved from position:

    thor command NAME

Instead of:

    thor command --name=NAME

Besides, arguments are used inside your code as an accessor (self.argument), while options are all kept in a hash (self.options).

Finally, arguments cannot have type :default or :boolean but can be optional (supplying :optional => :true or :required => false), although you cannot have a required argument after a non-required argument. If you try it, an error is raised.

#### Parameters¶ ↑

name<Symbol>

  The name of the argument.

options<Hash>

  Described below.

#### Options¶ ↑

:desc - Description for the argument. :required - If the argument is required or not. :optional - If the argument is optional or not. :type - The type of the argument, can be :string, :hash, :array, :numeric. :default - Default value for this argument. It cannot be required and have default values. :banner - `String` to show on usage notes.

#### Errors¶ ↑

`ArgumentError`

  Raised if you supply a required argument after a non required one.

    # File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 232
    def argument(name, options = {})
      is_thor_reserved_word?(name, :argument)
      no_commands { attr_accessor name }

      required = if options.key?(:optional)
        !options[:optional]
      elsif options.key?(:required)
        options[:required]
      else
        options[:default].nil?
      end

      remove_argument name

      if required
        arguments.each do |argument|
          next if argument.required?
          raise ArgumentError, "You cannot have #{name.to_s.inspect} as required argument after " \
                              "the non-required argument #{argument.human_name.inspect}."
        end
      end

      options[:required] = required

      arguments << Bundler::Thor::Argument.new(name, options)
    end

arguments() click to toggle source

Returns this class arguments, looking up in the ancestors chain.

#### Returns¶ ↑

Array

    # File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 264
    def arguments
      @arguments ||= from_superclass(:arguments, [])
    end

check_default_type!() click to toggle source

If you want to raise an error when the default value of an option does not match the type call check_default_type! This is disabled by default for compatibility.

    # File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 157
    def check_default_type!
      @check_default_type = true
    end

check_unknown_options!() click to toggle source

If you want to raise an error for unknown options, call check_unknown_options! This is disabled by default to allow dynamic invocations.

    # File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 142
    def check_unknown_options!
      @check_unknown_options = true
    end

class_option(name, options = {}) click to toggle source

Adds an option to the set of class options

#### Parameters¶ ↑

name<Symbol>

  The name of the argument.

options<Hash>

  Described below.

#### Options¶ ↑

:desc

  – Description for the argument.

:required

  – If the argument is required or not.

:default

  – Default value for this argument.

:group

  – The group for this options. Use by class options to output options in different levels.

:aliases

  – Aliases for this option. Note: Bundler::Thor follows a convention of one-dash-one-letter options. Thus aliases like “-something” wouldn't be parsed; use either “--something” or “-s” instead.

:type

  – The type of the argument, can be :string, :hash, :array, :numeric or :boolean.

:banner

  – `String` to show on usage notes.

:hide

  – If you want to hide this option from the help.

    # File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 299
    def class_option(name, options = {})
      build_option(name, options, class_options)
    end

class_options(options = nil) click to toggle source

Adds a bunch of options to the set of class options.

    class_options :foo => false, :bar => :required, :baz => :string

If you prefer more detailed declaration, check class_option.

#### Parameters¶ ↑

Hash[Symbol => Object]

    # File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 277
    def class_options(options = nil)
      @class_options ||= from_superclass(:class_options, {})
      build_options(options, @class_options) if options
      @class_options
    end

commands() click to toggle source

Returns the commands for this Bundler::Thor class.

#### Returns¶ ↑

OrderedHash

  An ordered hash with commands names as keys and `Bundler::Thor::Command` objects as values.

    # File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 359
    def commands
      @commands ||= Bundler::Thor::CoreExt::OrderedHash.new
    end

Also aliased as: tasks
group(name = nil) click to toggle source

Defines the group. This is used when thor list is invoked so you can specify that only commands from a pre-defined group will be shown. Defaults to standard.

#### Parameters¶ ↑

name<String|Symbol>

    # File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 345
    def group(name = nil)
      if name
        @group = name.to_s
      else
        @group ||= from_superclass(:group, "standard")
      end
    end

namespace(name = nil) click to toggle source

Sets the namespace for the Bundler::Thor or `Bundler::Thor::Group` class. By default the namespace is retrieved from the class name. If your Bundler::Thor class is named Scripts::MyScript, the help method, for example, will be called as:

    thor scripts:my_script -h

If you change the namespace:

    namespace :my_scripts

You change how your commands are invoked:

    thor my_scripts -h

Finally, if you change your namespace to default:

    namespace :default

Your commands can be invoked with a shortcut. Instead of:

    thor :my_command

    # File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 448
    def namespace(name = nil)
      if name
        @namespace = name.to_s
      else
        @namespace ||= Bundler::Thor::Util.namespace_from_thor_class(self)
      end
    end

no_commands() { || ... } click to toggle source

All methods defined inside the given block are not added as commands.

So you can do:

    class MyScript < Bundler::Thor
      no_commands do
        def this_is_not_a_command
        end
      end
    end

You can also add the method and remove it from the command list:

    class MyScript < Bundler::Thor
      def this_is_not_a_command
      end
      remove_command :this_is_not_a_command
    end

    # File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 418
    def no_commands
      @no_commands = true
      yield
    ensure
      @no_commands = false
    end

      options = names.last.is_a?(Hash) ? names.pop : {}

      names.each do |name|
        arguments.delete_if { |a| a.name == name.to_s }
        undef_method name, "#{name}=" if options[:undefine]

        class_options.delete(name)
      end
    end

remove_command(*names) click to toggle source

Removes a given command from this Bundler::Thor class. This is usually done if you are inheriting from another class and don't want it to be available anymore.

By default it only remove the mapping to the command. But you can supply :undefine => true to undefine the method from the class as well.

#### Parameters¶ ↑

name<Symbol|String>

  The name of the command to be removed

options<Hash>

  You can give :undefine => true if you want commands the method to be undefined from the class as well.

      names.each do |name|
        commands.delete(name.to_s)
        all_commands.delete(name.to_s)
        undef_method name if options[:undefine]
      end
    end

Also aliased as: remove_task
remove_task(*names)
Alias for: remove_command
start(given_args = ARGV, config = {}) click to toggle source

Parses the command and options from the given args, instantiate the class and invoke the command. This method is used when the arguments must be parsed from an array. If you are inside Ruby and want to use a Bundler::Thor class, you can simply initialize it:

    script = MyScript.new(args, options, config)
    script.invoke(:command, first_arg, second_arg, third_arg)

    # File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 464
    def start(given_args = ARGV, config = {})
      config[:shell] ||= Bundler::Thor::Base.shell.new
      dispatch(nil, given_args.dup, nil, config)
    rescue Bundler::Thor::Error => e
      config[:debug] || ENV["THOR_DEBUG"] == "1" ? (raise e) : config[:shell].error(e.message)
      exit(1) if exit_on_failure?
    rescue Errno::EPIPE
      # This happens if a thor command is piped to something like `head`,
      # which closes the pipe when it's done reading. This will also
      # mean that if the pipe is closed, further unnecessary
      # computation will not occur.
      exit(0)
    end

strict_args_position!() click to toggle source

If you want only strict string args (useful when cascading thor classes), call strict_args_position! This is disabled by default to allow dynamic invocations.

    # File lib/bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/base.rb, line 185
    def strict_args_position!
      @strict_args_position = true
    end

      else
        value = superclass.send(method)

        # Ruby implements `dup` on Object, but raises a `TypeError`
        # if the method is called on immediates. As a result, we
        # don't have a good way to check whether dup will succeed
        # without calling it and rescuing the TypeError.
        begin
