class Prism::StringQuery

Query methods that allow categorizing strings based on their context for where they could be valid in a Ruby syntax tree.

Attributes

string [R]

The string that this query is wrapping.

Public Class Methods

constant?(string) → bool

Source

static VALUE
string_query_constant_p(VALUE self, VALUE string) {
    const uint8_t *source = (const uint8_t *) check_string(string);
    return string_query(pm_string_query_constant(source, RSTRING_LEN(string), rb_enc_get(string)->name));
}

Returns true if the string constitutes a valid constant name. Note that this means the names that can be set through Module#const_set, not necessarily the ones that can be set through a constant assignment.

local?(string) → bool

Source

static VALUE
string_query_local_p(VALUE self, VALUE string) {
    const uint8_t *source = (const uint8_t *) check_string(string);
    return string_query(pm_string_query_local(source, RSTRING_LEN(string), rb_enc_get(string)->name));
}

Returns true if the string constitutes a valid local variable name. Note that this means the names that can be set through Binding#local_variable_set, not necessarily the ones that can be set through a local variable assignment.

method_name?(string) → bool

Source

static VALUE
string_query_method_name_p(VALUE self, VALUE string) {
    const uint8_t *source = (const uint8_t *) check_string(string);
    return string_query(pm_string_query_method_name(source, RSTRING_LEN(string), rb_enc_get(string)->name));
}

Returns true if the string constitutes a valid method name.
