TypoSafe
Protect your Ruby code from typos! You've heard of Type Safe languages, well now Ruby can be Typo Safe! Typo Safe code will revolutionise programming.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'typo_safe'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install typo_safe
Usage
I'm pretty sure you don't ever want to use this gem, not even in development.
Typo Safe a single class written by a fat-fingered developer:
require 'typo_safe'
class SomeClass
include TypoSafe
def print_hell0
puts "hello from the print_hello method!"
end
def print_goodbye
puts "goodbye from the print_goodbye method!"
end
end
SomeClass.new.print_hello
SomeClass.new.pring_goodbye

TODO
- Make the gem respect public/private methods (at the moment you can call a private method by using a typo)
- Benchmark Levenshtein calculations and possibly cache
- At the moment when there is a conflict (two methods have the same Levenshtein distance) the first is picked, maybe favour locally defined methods over inherited methods
- Make including TypoSafe on Object work (for global protection!)
