Instance Method Details

#flush ⇒ Object

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

flush executes the block, if any, stored by the #on_flush method

def flush
  @on_flush_block&.call
end

#limit ⇒ Numeric

Return the timeout period for resolving a value. (see #timeout)

Returns:

  • (Numeric)

def limit
  @timeout || 0
end

#on_flush(&block) ⇒ Object

on_flush accepts a block and executes the block when the resolution’s value is flushed. This makes it possible to model a single, expensive system call inside of a Ruby object and then define multiple dynamic facts which resolve by sending messages to the model instance. If one of the dynamic facts is flushed then it can, in turn, flush the data stored in the model instance to keep all of the dynamic facts in sync without making multiple, expensive, system calls.

Please see the Solaris zones fact for an example of how this feature may be used.
