Overview

‘RuboCop::AST::Node` is a subclass of `Parser::AST::Node`. It provides access to parent nodes and an object-oriented way to traverse an AST with the power of `Enumerable`.

It has predicate methods for every node type, like this:

Examples:

node.send_type?    # Equivalent to: `node.type == :send`
node.op_asgn_type? # Equivalent to: `node.type == :op_asgn`

# Non-word characters (other than a-zA-Z0-9_) in type names are omitted.
node.defined_type? # Equivalent to: `node.type == :defined?`

# Find the first lvar node under the receiver node.
lvar_node = node.each_descendant.find(&:lvar_type?)

  # pending nodes while constructing AST and they are replaced later.
  # For example, `lvar` and `send` type nodes are initially created as an

#each_ancestorself, Enumerator #each_ancestor(type) ⇒ self, Enumerator #each_ancestor(type_a, type_b, ...) ⇒ self, Enumerator

Calls the given block for each ancestor node from parent to root. If no block is given, an ‘Enumerator` is returned.

Overloads:

  • #each_ancestorself, Enumerator

    Yield all nodes.

  • #each_ancestor(type) ⇒ self, Enumerator

    Yield only nodes matching the type.

    Parameters:

    • type (Symbol)

      a node type

  • #each_ancestor(type_a, type_b, ...) ⇒ self, Enumerator

    Yield only nodes matching any of the types.

    Parameters:

    • type_a (Symbol)

      a node type

    • type_b (Symbol)

      a node type

Yield Parameters:

#each_child_nodeself, Enumerator #each_child_node(type) ⇒ self, Enumerator #each_child_node(type_a, type_b, ...) ⇒ self, Enumerator

  • #each_child_nodeself, Enumerator

    Yield all nodes.

  • #each_child_node(type) ⇒ self, Enumerator

    Yield only nodes matching the type.

    Parameters:

    • type (Symbol)

      a node type

  • #each_child_node(type_a, type_b, ...) ⇒ self, Enumerator

    Yield only nodes matching any of the types.

    Parameters:

    • type_a (Symbol)

      a node type

    • type_b (Symbol)

      a node type

Yield Parameters:

#each_descendantself, Enumerator #each_descendant(type) ⇒ self, Enumerator #each_descendant(type_a, type_b, ...) ⇒ self, Enumerator

Calls the given block for each descendant node with depth first order. If no block is given, an ‘Enumerator` is returned.

Overloads:

    Yield only nodes matching the type.

    Parameters:

    • type (Symbol)

      a node type

  • #each_descendant(type_a, type_b, ...) ⇒ self, Enumerator

    Yield only nodes matching any of the types.

    Parameters:

    • type_a (Symbol)

      a node type

    • type_b (Symbol)

      a node type

end

#each_nodeself, Enumerator #each_node(type) ⇒ self, Enumerator #each_node(type_a, type_b, ...) ⇒ self, Enumerator

Calls the given block for the receiver and each descendant node in depth-first order. If no block is given, an ‘Enumerator` is returned.

This method would be useful when you treat the receiver node as the root of a tree and want to iterate over all nodes in the tree.

Overloads:

  • #each_nodeself, Enumerator

    Yield all nodes.

  • #each_node(type) ⇒ self, Enumerator

    Yield only nodes matching the type.

    Parameters:

    • type (Symbol)

      a node type

  • #each_node(type_a, type_b, ...) ⇒ self, Enumerator

    Yield only nodes matching any of the types.

    Parameters:

    • type_a (Symbol)

      a node type

    • type_b (Symbol)

      a node type

Yield Parameters:

  • node (Node)

    each node

Returns:

  • (self)

    if a block is given

  • (Enumerator)

    if no block is given

#pure?Boolean

Some expressions are evaluated for their value, some for their side effects, and some for both. If we know that expressions are useful only for their return values, and have no side effects, that means we can reorder them, change the number of times they are evaluated, or replace them with other expressions which are equivalent in value. So, is evaluation of this node free of side effects?

#updated(type = nil, children = nil, properties = {}) ⇒ Object

Override ‘AST::Node#updated` so that `AST::Processor` does not try to mutate our ASTs. Since we keep references from children to parents and not just the other way around, we cannot update an AST and share identical subtrees. Rather, the entire AST must be copied any time any part of it is changed.

#value_used?Boolean

Some expressions are evaluated for their value, some for their side effects, and some for both If we know that an expression is useful only for its side effects, that means we can transform it in ways which preserve the side effects, but change the return value So, does the return value of this node matter? If we changed it to ‘(…; nil)`, might that affect anything?
