class Module

configuration() click to toggle source

configure adds the options method to a class which allows it to access the global configuration hash.

name: an arrays of symbols representing the attributes on the object.

# File lib/utility/configuration.rb, line 51
  def configuration()
    class_eval "      def options
        Configuration.instance.options
      end
"
  end

logger(loglevel='DEBUG', logto=['stderr','server']) click to toggle source

logger defines a named log and log method for the class

loglevel: the level of logging to do

# File lib/utility/log.rb, line 53
  def logger(loglevel='DEBUG', logto=['stderr','server'])
    class_eval "      @log = Log.instance.loginit(self.name, "#{loglevel}", #{logto.inspect})
      def log
        self.class.instance_variable_get :@log
      end
"
  end

property(*sym) click to toggle source

Properties modifies class Module by adding the property method which:

creates read/write accessors for each symbol.
defines the to_yaml_properties for use by the database for all symbols.
defines the :id attribute

sym: an arrays of symbols representing the attributes on the object.

# File lib/storage/properties.rb, line 26
  def property(*sym)
    if Configuration.instance.options['props_are_accessors_only']
      attr_accessor(*sym)
      class_eval <<-EOD
        def id
          @id ||= Engine.instance.db.getid
