I have a rubyscript in /myapp/scripts/myscript.rb
when i run ruby script/myscript.rb it executes fine, but how do I run this method with delayed job from within a ruby script? Hope this makes sense
---myscript.rb---
ENV['RAILS_ENV'] = ARGV.first || ENV['RAILS_ENV'] || 'development'
require File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) + "/../config/environment")
def populate
#do some stuff here
end
handle_asynchronously :populate
I get a undefined method 'handle_asynchronously' error
I think handle_asynchronously works only on methods and not on top-level functions.
Maybe you can declare a module like this:
# scripts/myscript.rb
class Tasks
def populate
puts "Populating..."
end
handle_asynchronously :populate
end
# call it in some function
def my_user_task
Tasks.new.populate
end

I need to:
Open a Rakefile
Find if a certain task is defined
Find if a certain variable is defined
This works to find tasks defined inside a Rakefile, but it pollutes the global namespace (i.e. if you run it twice, all tasks defined in first one will show up in the second one):
sub_rake = Rake::DefaultLoader.new
sub_rake.load("Rakefile")
puts Rake.application.tasks
In Rake, here is where it loads the Makefile:
https://github.com/ruby/rake/blob/master/lib/rake/rake_module.rb#L28
How do I get access to the variables that are loaded there?
Here is an example Rakefile I am parsing:
load '../common.rake'
#source_dir = 'source'
desc "Run all build and deployment tasks, for continuous delivery"
task :deliver => ['git:pull', 'jekyll:build', 'rsync:push']
Here's some things I tried that didn't work. Using eval on the Rakefile:
safe_object = Object.new
safe_object.instance_eval("Dir.chdir('" + f + "')\n" + File.read(folder_rakefile))
if safe_object.instance_variable_defined?("#staging_dir")
puts " Staging directory is " + f.yellow + safe_object.instance_variable_get("#staging_dir").yellow
else
puts " Staging directory is not specified".red
end
This failed when parsing desc parts of the Rakefile. I also tried things like
puts Rake.instance_variables
puts Rake.class_variables
But these are not getting the #source_dir that I am looking for.
rakefile_body = <<-RUBY
load '../common.rake'
#source_dir = 'some/source/dir'
desc "Run all build and deployment tasks, for continuous delivery"
task :deliver => ['git:pull', 'jekyll:build', 'rsync:push']
RUBY
def source_dir(ast)
return nil unless ast.kind_of? AST::Node
if ast.type == :ivasgn && ast.children[0] == :#source_dir
rhs = ast.children[1]
if rhs.type != :str
raise "#source_dir is not a string literal! #{rhs.inspect}"
else
return rhs.children[0]
end
end
ast.children.each do |child|
value = source_dir(child)
return value if value
end
nil
end
require 'parser/ruby22'
body = Parser::Ruby22.parse(rakefile_body)
source_dir body # => "some/source/dir"
Rake runs load() on the Rakefile inside load_rakefile in the Rake module. And you can easily get the tasks with the public API.
Rake.load_rakefile("Rakefile")
puts Rake.application.tasks
Apparently that load() invocation causes the loaded variables to be captured into the main Object. This is the top-level Object of Ruby. (I expected it to be captured into Rake since the load call is made in the context of the Rake module.)
Therefore, it is possible to access instance variables from the main object using this ugly code:
main = eval 'self', TOPLEVEL_BINDING
puts main.instance_variable_get('#staging_dir')
Here is a way to encapsulate the parsing of the Rakefile so that opening two files will not have all the things from the first one show up when you are analyzing the second one:
class RakeBrowser
attr_reader :tasks
attr_reader :variables
include Rake::DSL
def task(*args, &block)
if args.first.respond_to?(:id2name)
#tasks << args.first.id2name
elsif args.first.keys.first.respond_to?(:id2name)
#tasks << args.first.keys.first.id2name
end
end
def initialize(file)
#tasks = []
Dir.chdir(File.dirname(file)) do
eval(File.read(File.basename(file)))
end
#variables = Hash.new
instance_variables.each do |name|
#variables[name] = instance_variable_get(name)
end
end
end
browser = RakeBrowser.new(f + "Rakefile")
puts browser.tasks
puts browser.variables[:#staging_dir]
I am trying to test the first ruby CLI i've written (n00b alert) and need some help. All my code is within 1 file, this includes a Class, OptionParser and some basic class execution methods. Here's an idea of what that looks like
The *rb. file
require 'optparse'
require 'fileutils'
class Foo
attr_accessor :arg, :opt
def initialize(p={})
#opt = p[:opt] || false
end
def do_something(arg)
#arg = arg
end
#more methods...
end
# Options
#options={}
#opt_parser = OptionParser.new do |opt|
opt.banner = "<{ FooBar }>"
opt.separator "------------"
opt.on("-o", "--opt", "An Option" do
#options[:opt] = true
end
end
#opt_parser.parse!
#CLI Execution
#foo = Foo.new(#options)
#foo.do_something(ARGV[0])
So here is the problem, i know would like to run some rspec tests rspec spec/ that i've wrote for the class, however the lines outside the class get executed of course and im left with an ARGV error.
What im looking for
Is there a better way to organize my code so i can test all the pieces, or how could i write a test to accommodate this file, Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
One posible solution is to wrap your option parsing code with a conditional that checks if the file is being run directly or loaded by some other file.
if __FILE__ == $0
# option parsing code
end
If you do that then all the code inside the if __FILE__ == $0 will not run with your test, but the rest of the code will run normally.
I'm just starting a small project to emulate a Carnival's ticket sales booth and one of the guidelines was to test that a user can enter the number of tickets. The program runs in the console and I eventually (hopefully) figured it out how to implement this test thanks to #Stefan's answer on this question.
The problem is that now, when I run the test file, minitest says:
0 runs, 0 assertions, 0 failures, 0 errors, 0 skips
I get the same result when I try to run the test by name using ruby path/to/test/file.rb --name method-name. I'm not sure if this is because my code is still faulty of if it's because I've set up minitest incorrectly. I've tried to look up similar problems on SO but most questions seem to involve using minitest with rails and I just have a plain ruby project.
Here's my test file:
gem 'minitest', '>= 5.0.0'
require 'minitest/spec'
require 'minitest/autorun'
require_relative 'carnival'
class CarnivalTest < MiniTest::Test
def sample
assert_equal(1, 1)
end
def user_can_enter_number_of_tickets
with_stdin do |user|
user.puts "2"
assert_equal(Carnival.new.get_value, "2")
end
end
def with_stdin
stdin = $stdin # global var to remember $stdin
$stdin, write = IO.pipe # assign 'read end' of pipe to $stdin
yield write # pass 'write end' to block
ensure
write.close # close pipe
$stdin = stdin # restore $stdin
end
end
In a file called carnival.rb in the same folder as my test file I have
Class Carnival
def get_value
gets.chomp
end
end
If anyone can help figure out why the test is not running I'd be grateful!
By convention, tests in Minitest are public instance methods that start with test_, so the original test has no actual test methods. You need to update your test class so that the methods with assertions follow the convention as:
class CarnivalTest < Minitest::Test
def test_sample
assert_equal(1, 1)
end
def test_user_can_enter_number_of_tickets
with_stdin do |user|
user.puts "2"
assert_equal(Carnival.new.get_value, "2")
end
end
# snip...
end
Yeah always start all your tests with test_ so it knows that you want to that function/method
class CarnivalTest < MiniTest::Test
def test_sample
assert_equal(1, 1)
end
def test_user_can_enter_number_of_tickets
with_stdin do |user|
user.puts "2"
assert_equal(Carnival.new.get_value, "2")
end
end
and that should work for you
Let's say in my standard deploy.rb file I have a set of namespaces. I have a common task that lists RPM packages based on a variable I pass to it. When I run this as is, it complains about capture being an undefined method. If I include that method inside the deploy.rb file, it works just fine.
Mind you, I'm new to ruby and to OOP so I'm sure I'm doing this the wrong way. :-)
deploy.rb
load 'config/module'
namespace :lp_app do
desc "LP tasks"
co = Tasks::Commands.new()
task :list do
co.list_pkg("LP")
end
end
module.rb
module Tasks
class Commands
def list_pkg(component)
File.open("#{component}.file.list", "r").each_line do |line|
pkg_name = "#{line}".chomp
set :server_pkg, capture("rpm -q #{pkg_name}")
puts "#{server_pkg}"
end
end
end
end
You are trying to use Capistano specific commands outside of Capistrano. If you want to set a variable to the result of something you run on the command line, try the backtick (`).
module Tasks
class Commands
def list_pkg(component)
File.open("#{component}.file.list", "r").each_line do |line|
pkg_name = "#{line}".chomp
server_pkg = `rpm -q #{pkg_name}`
puts server_pkg
end
end
end
end
In Sinatra, I'm unable to create global variables which are assigned values only once in the application lifetime. Am I missing something? My simplified code looks like this:
require 'rubygems' if RUBY_VERSION < "1.9"
require 'sinatra/base'
class WebApp < Sinatra::Base
#a = 1
before do
#b = 2
end
get '/' do
puts #a, #b
"#{#a}, #{#b}"
end
end
WebApp.run!
This results in
nil
2
in the terminal and ,2 in the browser.
If I try to put #a = 1 in the initialize method, I'm getting an error in the WebApp.run! line.
I feel I'm missing something because if I can't have global variables, then how can I load large data during application instantiation?
before do seems to get called every time there is a request from the client side.
class WebApp < Sinatra::Base
configure do
set :my_config_property, 'hello world'
end
get '/' do
"#{settings.my_config_property}"
end
end
Beware that if you use Shotgun, or some other Rack runner tool that reloads the code on each request the value will be recreated each time and it will look as if it's not assigned only once. Run in production mode to disable reloading and you will see that it's only assigned on the first request (you can do this with for example rackup --env production config.ru).
I ran into a similar issue, I was trying to initialize an instance variable #a using the initialize method but kept receiving an exception every time:
class MyApp < Sinatra::Application
def initialize
#a = 1
end
get '/' do
puts #a
'inside get'
end
end
I finally decided to look into the Sinatra code for initialize:
# File 'lib/sinatra/base.rb', line 877
def initialize(app = nil)
super()
#app = app
#template_cache = Tilt::Cache.new
yield self if block_given?
end
Looks like it does some necessary bootstrapping and I needed to call super().
def initialize
super()
#a = 1
end
This seemed to fix my issue and everything worked as expected.
Another option:
helpers do
def a
a ||= 1
end
end
Building on Theo's accepted solution, it is also possible to do:
class App < Sinatra::Application
set :blabla, ''
namespace '/b' do
get '/baby' do
# do something where bouh is assigned a value
settings.blabla = 'bouh'
end
end
namespace '/z'
get '/human' do
# settings.blabla is available here with newly assigned value
end
end
end
You could use OpenStruct.
require 'rubygems'
require 'sinatra'
require 'ostruct'
configure do
Struct = OpenStruct.new(
:foo => 'bar'
)
end
get '/' do
"#{Struct.foo}" # => bar
end
You can even use the Struct class in views and other loaded files.
