Appendix C
Spell Book
This appendix is a “spell book”―a quick reference to all the “spells” in
the book, in alphabetical order. Most of these spells are metaprogram-
ming related (but the ones from Appendix A, on page 242, are arguably
not that “meta”).
Each spell comes with a short example and a reference to the page
where it’s introduced. Go to the associated pages for extended examples
and the reasoning behind each spell.
C.1 The Spells
Argument Array
Collapse a list of arguments into an array.
def my_method(*args)
args.map {|arg| arg.reverse }
end
my_method('abc' , 'xyz' , '123' ) # => ["cba", "zyx", "321"]
For more information, see page 248.
Around Alias
Call the previous, aliased version of a method from a redefined method.
class String
alias :old_reverse :reverse
def reverse
"x#{old_reverse}x"
end
end
T HE S PELLS
"abc".reverse # => "xcbax"
For more information, see page 157.
Blank Slate
Remove methods from an object to turn them into Ghost Methods (75).
class C
def method_missing(name, *args)
"a Ghost Method"
end
end
obj = C.new
obj.to_s # => "#<C:0x357258>"
class C
instance_methods.each do |m|
undef_method m unless m.to_s =~ /method_missing|respond_to?|^__/
end
end
obj.to_s # => "a Ghost Method"
For more information, see page 86.
Class Extension
Define class methods by mixing a module into a class’s eigenclass (a
special case of Object Extension (153)).
class C; end
module M
def my_method
'a class method'
end
end
class << C
include M
end
C.my_method # => "a class method"
For more information, see page 153.
Class Extension Mixin
Enable a module to extend its includer through a Hook Method (183).

T HE S PELLS
module M
def self.included(base)
base.extend(ClassMethods)
end
module ClassMethods
def my_method
'a class method'
end
end
end
class C
include M
end
C.my_method # => "a class method"
For more information, see page 187.
Class Instance Variable
Store class-level state in an instance variable of the Class object.
class C
@my_class_instance_variable = "some value"
def self.class_attribute
@my_class_instance_variable
end
end
C.class_attribute # => "some value"
For more information, see page 129.
Class Macro
Use a class method in a class definition.
class C; end
class << C
def my_macro(arg)
"my_macro(#{arg}) called"
end
end
class C
my_macro :x # => "my_macro(x) called"
end
For more information, see page 138.

Clean Room
Use an object as an environment in which to evaluate a block.
class CleanRoom
def a_useful_method(x); x * 2; end
end
CleanRoom.new.instance_eval { a_useful_method(3) }
# => 6
For more information, see page 109.
Code Processor
Process Strings of Code (165) from an external source.
File.readlines("a_file_containing_lines_of_ruby.txt" ).each do |line|
puts "#{line.chomp} ==> #{eval(line)}"
end
# >> 1 + 1 ==> 2
# >> 3 * 2 ==> 6
# >> Math.log10(100) ==> 2.0
For more information, see page 166.
Context Probe
Execute a block to access information in an object’s context.
class C
def initialize
@x = "a private instance variable"
end
end
obj = C.new
obj.instance_eval { @x } # => "a private instance variable"
For more information, see page 107.
Deferred Evaluation
Store a piece of code and its context in a proc or lambda for evaluation
later.
class C
def store(&block)
@my_code_capsule = block
end
def execute
@my_code_capsule.call
end
end

obj = C.new
obj.store { $X = 1 }
$X = 0
obj.execute
$X # => 1
For more information, see page 110.
Dynamic Dispatch
Decide which method to call at runtime.
method_to_call = :reverse
obj = "abc"
obj.send(method_to_call) # => "cba"
For more information, see page 66.
Dynamic Method
Decide how to define a method at runtime.
class C
end
C.class_eval do
define_method :my_method do
"a dynamic method"
end
end
obj = C.new
obj.my_method # => "a dynamic method"
For more information, see page 70.
Dynamic Proxy
Forward to another object any messages that don’t match a method.
class MyDynamicProxy
def initialize(target)
@target = target
end
def method_missing(name, *args, &block)
"result: #{@target.send(name, *args, &block)}"
end
end
obj = MyDynamicProxy.new("a string" )
obj.reverse # => "result: gnirts a"

Flat Scope
Use a closure to share variables between two scopes.
class C
def an_attribute
@attr
end
end
obj = C.new
a_variable = 100
# flat scope:
obj.instance_eval do
@attr = a_variable
end
obj.an_attribute # => 100
For more information, see page 105.
Ghost Method
Respond to a message that doesn’t have an associated method.
class C
def method_missing(name, *args)
name.to_s.reverse
end
end
obj = C.new
obj.my_ghost_method # => "dohtem_tsohg_ym"
For more information, see page 75.
Hook Method
Override a method to intercept object model events.
$INHERITORS = []
class C
def self.inherited(subclass)
$INHERITORS << subclass
end
end
class D < C
end
C LICK H ERE to purchase this book now.

T HE S PELLS
class E < C
end
class F < E
end
$INHERITORS # => [D, E, F]
For more information, see page 183.
Kernel Method
Define a method in module Kernel to make the method available to all
objects.
module Kernel
def a_method
"a kernel method"
end
end
a_method # => "a kernel method"
For more information, see page 53.
Lazy Instance Variable
Wait until the first access to initialize an instance variable.
class C
def attribute
@attribute = @attribute || "some value"
end
end
obj = C.new
obj.attribute # => "some value"
For more information, see page 246.
Mimic Method
Disguise a method as another language construct.
def BaseClass(name)
name == "string" ? String : Object
end
class C < BaseClass "string" # a method that looks like a class
attr_accessor :an_attribute # a method that looks like a keyword
end
obj = C.new
obj.an_attribute = 1
