Constructor Details

#initialize(list_type) ⇒ MessageList

Public: Initialize a new MessageList instance.

list_type - A Symbol representing the type of this list. This Symbol is

used to determine the structure of the I18n key used when
translating the given message Symbols.
Allowed values: :messages or :errors.

Returns a MessageList instance.

end

Instance Method Details

#add(attribute, message, i18n_options = {}) ⇒ Object

Public: Adds a new message to the list for the given attribute.

attribute - A Symbol describing the category, attribute, or name to which

the message pertains.

message - A Symbol, String, or Proc which contains the message for the

attribute.

If a String is given, it is directly used for the message.

If a Symbol is given, it is used to lookup the full message
from I18n, under the "rapporteur.<list_type>.<message Symbol>"
key. For instance, if this is a :messages list, and the
attribute is :time, then I18n would be queried for
"rapporteur.messages.time".

If a Proc is given, it is `.call`'d with no parameters. The
return value from the Proc is directly used for the message.

i18n_options - A Hash of optional key/value pairs to pass to the I18n

translator.

Examples

list.add(:time, '2013-08-23T12:34:00Z')
list.add(:time, :too_late)
list.add(:time, :too_late, :time => 'midnight')
list.add(:time, lambda { Time.now.iso8601 })

Returns the MessageList instance.

def add(attribute, message, i18n_options = {})
  @messages[attribute.to_sym].add(normalize_message(attribute, message, i18n_options))
  self
end

#full_messages ⇒ Object

Public: Generates an Array containing the combination of all of the added attributes and their messages.

Examples

list.add(:time, 'is now')
list.add(:time, 'is valuable')
list.add(:day, 'is today')
list.full_messages
# => ["time is now", "time is valuable", "day is today"]

Returns an Array containing Strings of messages.

def full_messages
  @messages.map { |attribute, attribute_messages|
    attribute_messages.collect { |message| "#{attribute} #{message}" }
  }.flatten
end

#to_hash ⇒ Object

Public: Returns the added attributes and their messages as a Hash, keyed by the attribute, with either an Array containing all of the added messages or just the single attribute message.

Examples

list.add(:time, 'is now')
list.add(:time, 'is valuable')
list.add(:day, 'is today')
list.full_messages
# => {:time => ["is now", "is valuable"], :day => "is today"}

Returns a Hash instance.
