Instance Method Details

#def_node_matcher(method_name, pattern_str, **keyword_defaults) ⇒ Object

Define a method which applies a pattern to an AST node

The new method will return nil if the node does not match If the node matches, and a block is provided, the new method will yield to the block (passing any captures as block arguments). If the node matches, and no block is provided, the new method will return the captures, or ‘true` if there were none.

end

#def_node_search(method_name, pattern_str, **keyword_defaults) ⇒ Object

Define a method which recurses over the descendants of an AST node, checking whether any of them match the provided pattern

If the method name ends with ‘?’, the new method will return ‘true` as soon as it finds a descendant which matches. Otherwise, it will yield all descendants which match.
