Where is the have_fields RSpec matcher defined? - ruby

A recent question on using rspec featured some code with a have_fields matcher in it.
A search indicated that have_fields was referenced in the mongoid-rspec gem, but when I went to GitHub, I could only find it referenced in the spec files.
Similar searches of RSpec core and related gems came up empty as well.

You might be looking for the mongoid-minitest gem.
In have_field.rb it declares have_fields as an alias:
module Mongoid
module Matchers
module Document
# TODO: Add documentation.
def have_field *fields
HaveFieldMatcher.new(*fields)
end
alias :have_fields :have_field
private
class HaveFieldMatcher < Matcher
attr_reader :fields, :klass, :type, :default, :errors
def initialize *fields
#fields = fields.collect(&:to_s)
#errors = []
end
def of_type type
#type = type
self
end
... (rest of file omitted)

Ruby require loop

I have the following code (simplified):
decorator.rb
require 'decoratable'
class Decorator < SimpleDelegator
include Decoratable
end
decoratable.rb
require 'decorator_builder'
module Decoratable
def decorate(*decorators)
decorators.inject(DecoratorBuilder.new(self)) do |builder, decorator|
builder.public_send(decorator)
end.build
end
end
decorator_builder.rb
require 'rare_decorator'
class DecoratorBuilder
def initialize(card)
#card = card
#decorators = []
end
def rare
#decorators << ->(card) { RareDecorator.new(card) }
self
end
def build
#decorators.inject(#card) do |card, decorator|
decorator.call(card)
end
end
end
rare_decorator.rb
require 'decorator'
class RareDecorator < Decorator
# Stuff here
end
When I require decorator.rb, it causes RareDecorator to be declared before Decorator is declared, which is a problem since RareDecorator inherits from Decorator.
A possible solution is to split up decorator.rb like so:
class Decorator < SimpleDelegator; end
require 'decoratable'
class Decorator
include Decoratable
end
However, declaring dependencies in the middle of a file doesn't seem doesn't seem like a very clean solution to me.
Is there a better solution to this problem?
Instead of specifying requirements within every file, create one file which will require all the the application's requirements. Call it for example environment.rb:
require 'decoratable'
require 'decorator'
require 'decorator_builder'
require 'rare_decorator'
You don't need to worry about Decoratable not knowing what DecoratorBuilder is, as it is used within the method and the check for the constant will be executed when this method is called. Since you require decorator moment later, all will work.

Unable to use ActiveModel::MassAssignmentSecurity

I am trying to use some functionality in ActiveModel but I'm having trouble making everything work. I've included my class file and the test I'm running.
The test is failing with:
': undefined method `attr_accessible
I really don't know why, since MassAssignmentSecurity will bring that in and it is in fact running. I've also tried to include all of ActiveModel as well but that's doesn't work either. It doesn't seem to matter if I use include or extend to bring in the MassAssignmentSecurity.
If I pass in some attributes in my test to exercise "assign_attributes" in the initialize, that fails as well. I'm fairly new to rails, so I'm hoping I'm just missing something really simple.
TIA.
Using rails 3.2.12
my_class.rb
class MyClass
include ActiveModel::MassAssignmentSecurity
include ActiveModel::Validations
include ActiveModel::Conversion
extend ActiveModel::Naming
extend ActiveSupport::Callbacks
attr_accessible :persisted, :creds
def initialize(attributes = nil, options = {})
#persisted = false
assign_attributes(attributes, options) if attributes
yield self if block_given?
end
end
my_class_spec.rb
require 'spec_helper'
describe MyClass do
before do
#testcase = MyClass.new
end
subject { #testcase }
it_should_behave_like "ActiveModel"
it { MyClass.should include(ActiveModel::MassAssignmentSecurity) }
it { should respond_to(:persisted) }
end
support/active_model.rb
shared_examples_for "ActiveModel" do
include ActiveModel::Lint::Tests
# to_s is to support ruby-1.9
ActiveModel::Lint::Tests.public_instance_methods.map{|m| m.to_s}.grep(/^test/).each do |m|
example m.gsub('_',' ') do
send m
end
end
def model
subject
end
end
Yikes! What a mess I was yesterday. Might as well answer my own question since I figured out my issues.
attr_accessible in MassAssignmentSecurity does not work like it does with ActiveRecord. It does not create getters and setters. You still have to use attr_accessor if you those created.
assign_attributes is a connivence function that someone wrote to wrap around mass_assignment_sanitizer and isn't something baked into in MassAssignment Security. An example implementation is below:
def assign_attributes(values, options = {})
sanitize_for_mass_assignment(values, options[:as]).each do |k, v|
send("#{k}=", v)
end
end

Monkey patch class methods

I'm trying to do some monkey patching in ActiveShipping UPS class .
I need to add a class level method (starting with .self), so here it's what I'm trying to do:
module ActiveMerchant
module Shipping
class UPS < Carrier
def self.process_request(receiver, sender, packages, options = {})
# some code
end
def regular_method
"foobar"
end
end
end
end
Unfortunately when I'm trying to use it:
ActiveMerchant::Shipping::UPS.process_request(receiver etc)
I get an error:
NoMethodError: undefined method `process_request' for ActiveMerchant::Shipping::UPS:Class
from (irb):6
from C:/Ruby19/bin/irb.bat:19:in `<main>'
There is no class method named process_request in original class.
In original UPS class provided in gem there is one static method defined self.retry_safe = true
and I can use it without errors.
I can also use regular_method after creating instance of UPS class.
More details provided:
I'm working with Rails 2.3 ( :-( ) and Ruby 1.9.2. I have no influce on environment.
Monkey patched code is under plugins/my_plugin/lib/active_shipping/ext/carriers/ups.rb
In /active_shipping I have file named extensions.rb in which i have:
require 'active_shipping'
require_relative 'ext/carriers'
require_relative 'ext/carriers/ups'
It deals with loading everything properly (I suppose basing on regular_method beheaviour from first chunk of code in my question).
I try to invoke process_request in one of my Controllers. This part is little tricky, beacuse i'm using sth like this:
MyModel.courier_service.process_request(parameters)
where courier_service, in this case holds the ActiveMerchant::Shipping::UPS class.
I'm still a newbie in Ruby and don't know what sort of details i should provide.
Maybe you want to do it in another way
File patch_classes.rb:
module ActiveMerchantExpand
module Shipping
module ClassMethods
def self.process_request(receiver, sender, packages, options = {})
# some code
end
end
module InstanceMethods
def regular_method
"foobar"
end
end
def self.included(receiver)
receiver.extend ClassMethods
receiver.send :include, InstanceMethods
end
end
end
Then you have to load your class "ActiveMerchant::Shipping::UPS"
and after that you can attach your methods to your class via
Rails.configuration.to_prepare do
require_dependency [[file for ActiveMerchant::Shipping::UPS]]
require 'patch_classes' )
ActiveMerchant::Shipping::UPS.send(:include, ::ActiveMerchantExpand::Shipping)
end
This is from rails plugin writing, i hope this helps.
regards tingel2k
Do you explicitly require file with your monkey patch? If you just put it under your app or lib path without requiring, it wouldn't load because constant ActiveMerchant::Shipping::UPS is defined in gem and it doesn't trigger dependency resolution mechanism.

Access module Configuration constant from another class

I am trying to understand how the following code is able to do this:
attr_accessor *Configuration::VALID_CONFIG_KEYS
Without requiring the Configuration file. Here is part of the code:
require 'openamplify/analysis/context'
require 'openamplify/connection'
require 'openamplify/request'
module OpenAmplify
# Provides access to the OpenAmplify API http://portaltnx20.openamplify.com/AmplifyWeb_v20/
#
# Basic usage of the library is to call supported methods via the Client class.
#
# text = "After getting the MX1000 laser mouse and the Z-5500 speakers i fell in love with logitech"
# OpenAmplify::Client.new.amplify(text)
class Client
include OpenAmplify::Connection
include OpenAmplify::Request
attr_accessor *Configuration::VALID_CONFIG_KEYS
def initialize(options={})
merged_options = OpenAmplify.options.merge(options)
Configuration::VALID_CONFIG_KEYS.each do |key|
send("#{key}=", merged_options[key])
end
end
....
end
And this is the Configuration module:
require 'openamplify/version'
# TODO: output_format, analysis, scoring can be specied in the client and becomes the default unless overriden
module OpenAmplify
# Defines constants and methods for configuring a client
module Configuration
VALID_CONNECTION_KEYS = [:endpoint, :user_agent, :method, :adapter].freeze
VALID_OPTIONS_KEYS = [:api_key, :analysis, :output_format, :scoring].freeze
VALID_CONFIG_KEYS = VALID_CONNECTION_KEYS + VALID_OPTIONS_KEYS
DEFAULT_ENDPOINT = 'http://portaltnx20.openamplify.com/AmplifyWeb_v21/AmplifyThis'
DEFAULT_HTTP_METHOD = :get
DEFAULT_HTTP_ADAPTER = :net_http
DEFAULT_USER_AGENT = "OpenAmplify Ruby Gem #{OpenAmplify::VERSION}".freeze
DEFAULT_API_KEY = nil
DEFAULT_ANALYSIS = :all
DEFAULT_OUTPUT_FORMAT = :xml
DEFAULT_SCORING = :standard
DEFAULT_SOURCE_URL = nil
DEFAULT_INPUT_TEXT = nil
attr_accessor *VALID_CONFIG_KEYS
....
end
This is from this repository: OpenAmplify
First of all, in both configuration.rb and client.rb, they're using the same naming space, which is module OpenAmplify.
Even though configuration.rb is not required in client.rb, the convention of Ruby project usually requires all necessary files in one file (normally the same name as the name space, and placed in {ProjectName}/lib/, in this case the file is openamplify/lib/openamplify.rb).
So if you go to openamplify/lib/openamplify.rb, you'll notice it actually requires all those two files:
require 'openamplify/configuration'
require 'openamplify/client'
And since constants are already defined in configuration.rb:
module OpenAmplify
module Configuration
VALID_CONFIG_KEYS = ...
end
end
Then obviously constant VALID_CONFIG_KEYS is visible in the same module (re-opened by client.rb) by Configuration::VALID_CONFIG_KEYS (and the * in front just means exploding array, because VALID_CONFIG_KEYS is an array of symbols)
module OpenAmplify
class Client
attr_accessor *Configuration::VALID_CONFIG_KEYS
end
end

Automatically share context in RSpec

I want to share a memoized method between my specs. So I tried to use shared context like this
RSpec.configure do |spec|
spec.shared_context :specs do
let(:response) { request.execute! }
end
end
describe 'something' do
include_context :specs
end
It works ok. But I have about 60 spec files, so I'm forced to explicitly include context in each of them. Is there an way to automatically include shared context (or at least let definition) for all example groups in spec_helper.rb?
Something like this
RSpec.configure do |spec|
spec.include_context :specs
end
You can set up global before hooks using RSpec.configure via configure-class-methods and Configuration:
RSpec.configure {|c| c.before(:all) { do_stuff }}
let is not supported in RSpec.configure, but you can set up a global let by including it in a SharedContext module and including that module using config.before:
module MyLetDeclarations
extend RSpec::Core::SharedContext
let(:foo) { Foo.new }
end
RSpec.configure { |c| c.include MyLetDeclarations }
In RSpec 3+, this can be achieved as follows - based on Jeremy Peterson's answer.
# spec/supprt/users.rb
module SpecUsers
extend RSpec::SharedContext
let(:admin_user) do
create(:user, email: 'admin#example.org')
end
end
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.include SpecUsers
end
You can do it almost like that: there's a mechanism for including a module, and module inclusion has its own callback mechanism.
Suppose for example that we have a disconnected shared context that we want to use to run all our model specs without a database connection.
shared_context "disconnected" do
before :all do
ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(adapter: :nulldb)
end
after :all do
ActiveRecord::Base.establish_connection(:test)
end
end
You can now create a module that will include that context on inclusion.
module Disconnected
def self.included(scope)
scope.include_context "disconnected"
end
end
Finally, you can include that module into all specs in the normal manner (I've demonstrated doing it only for models, just to show that you can), which is almost exactly what you asked for.
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.include Disconnected, type: :model
end
That works with rspec-core 2.13.0 and rspec-rails 2.13.0.
Another way to go is to automatically share examples via metadata. So:
shared_context 'a shared context', a: :b do
let(:foo) { 'bar' }
end
describe 'an example group', a: :b do
# I have access to 'foo' variable
end
The most common way I use it is in rspec-rails, with some shared context depending on the example group type. So if you have config.infer_spec_type_from_file_location!, you can simply do:
shared_context 'a shared context', type: :controller do
let(:foo) { 'bar' }
end
describe SomeController do
# I have access to 'foo' variable
end
Also if you need ability to use shared data in before blocks inside specs, as me, try to include this (if its Rails project):
module SettingsHelper
extend ActiveSupport::Concern
included do
attr_reader :default_headers
before :all do
#default_headers = Hash[
'HTTP_HOST' => 'test.lvh.me'
]
end
after :all do
#default_headers = nil
end
end
end
RSpec.configure do |config|
config.include SettingsHelper
end
Or try something similar, look at #threedaymonk answer.
