A simple and convenient way to declare complex constructors with a support for various commonly used type systems. (in active development).
gem 'smart_initializer'bundle install
# --- or ---
gem install smart_initializerrequire 'smart_core/initializer'- Synopsis
- Initializer integration
- Basic Example
- Access to the instance attributes
- Configuration
- Type aliasing
- Type casting
- Initialization extension
- Plugins
- Roadmap
- Build
- Parameter + Option definitioning and initialization (custom object allocator and constructor);
- Original #initialize invokation;
- Initialization extensions invokation;
NOTE!: SmarteCore::Initializer's constructor is invoked first in order to guarantee the validity of the SmartCore::Initializer's functionality (such as attribute overlap chek, instant type checking, value post-processing by finalize, etc)
- original value
- (if defined): default value (default value is used when original value is not defined)
- (if defined): finalize;
- if default-object is a proc-object - this proc-object will be invoked in the outer scope of block definition;
- if finalize-object is a proc-object - this proc-object will be invoked in the isntance context (class instance);
NOTE: :finalize block are not invoked on omitted optional: true attributes which has no :default definition bock and which are not passed to the constructor. Example:
# without :default
class User
include SmartCore::Initializer
option :age, :string, optional: true, finalize: -> (val) { "#{val}_years" }
end
User.new.age # => nil# with :default
class User
include SmartCore::Initializer
option :age, :string, optional: true, default: '0', finalize: -> (val) { "#{val}_years" }
end
User.new.age # => '0_years'NOTE: last Hash argument will be treated as kwargs;
- param - defines name-like attribute:
- cast (optional) - type-cast received value if value has invalid type;
- privacy (optional) - reader incapsulation level;
- finalize (optional) - value post-processing (receives method name or proc) (the result value type is also validate);
- type_system (optional) - differently chosen type system for the current attribute;
- as (optional)- attribute alias (be careful with naming aliases that overlap the names of other attributes);
- mutable (optional) - generate type-validated attr_writer in addition to attr_reader (false by default)
- (limitation) param has no :default option;
- option - defines kwarg-like attribute:
- cast (optional) - type-cast received value if value has invalid type;
- privacy (optional) - reader incapsulation level;
- as (optional) - attribute alias (be careful with naming aliases that overlap the names of other attributes);
- mutable (optional) - generate type-validated attr_writer in addition to attr_reader (false by default)
- optional (optional) - mark attribut as optional (you can may not initialize optional attributes, their values will be initialized with nil or by default: parameter);
- finalize (optional) - value post-processing (receives method name or proc) (the result value type is also validate);
- expects Proc object or symbol/string isntance method;
- default (optional) - defalut value (if an attribute is not provided);
- expects Proc object or a simple value of any type;
- non-proc values will be duplicate during initialization;
- type_system (optional) - differently chosen type system for the current attribute;
- params - defines a series of parameters;
- :mutable (optional) - (false by default);
- :privacy (optional) - (:public by default);
- options - defines a series of options;
- :mutable (optional) - (false by default);
- :privacy (optional) - (:public by default);

- :default_type_system - default type system (smart_types by default);
- :strict_options - fail on extra kwarg-attributes passed to the constructor (true by default);
- :auto_cast - type-cast all values to the declared attribute type (false by default);
- by default, all classes uses and inherits the Global configuration;
- you can read config values via [] or .config.settings or .config[key];
- each class can be configured separately (in include invocation);
- global configuration affects classes used the default global configs in run-time;
- each class can be re-configured separately in run-time;
- based on Qonfig gem;

- install thy types (gem install thy):
gem 'thy'bundle install- enable thy_types plugin:
require 'thy'
SmartCore::Initializer::Configuration.plugin(:thy_types)- usage:
class User
include SmartCore::Initializer(type_system: :thy_types)
param :nickname, 'string'
param :email, 'value.text', type_system: :smart_types # mixing with smart_types
option :admin, Thy::Types::Boolean, default: false
option :age, (Thy::Type.new { |value| value > 18 }) # custom thy type is supported too
end
# valid case:
User.new('daiver', 'iamdaiver@gmail.com', { admin: true, age: 19 })
# => new user object
# invalid case (invalid age)
User.new('daiver', 'iamdaiver@gmail.com', { age: 17 })
# SmartCore::Initializer::ThyTypeValidationError
# invaldi case (invalid nickname)
User.new(123, 'test', { admin: true, age: 22 })
# => SmartCore::Initializer::ThyTypeValidationError- an ability to re-define existing options and parameters in children classes;
- More semantic attribute declaration errors (more domain-related attribute error objects);
- incorrect :finalize argument type: ArgumentError => FinalizeArgumentError;
- incorrect :as argument type: ArguemntError => AsArgumentError;
- etc;
- Support for RSpec doubles and instance_doubles inside the type system integration;
- Specs restructuring;
- Migrate from TravisCI to GitHub Actions;
- Extract Type Interop system to smart_type-system;
- an ability to define nested-option (or param) for structure-like object (for object with "nested" nature like a.b.c or a[:b][:c]) with data type validaitons and with a support of (almost) full attribute DSL;
