Overview

Handles all logic for complex lexical and inherited object resolution. Used by YARD::Registry.resolve, so there is no need to use this class directly.

Constructor Details

#initialize(registry = Registry) ⇒ RegistryResolver

Creates a new resolver object for a registry.

Parameters:

  • registry (Registry) (defaults to: Registry) —

    only set this if customizing the registry object

Instance Method Details

#lookup_by_path(path, opts = {}) ⇒ CodeObjects::Base, ...

Performs a lookup on a given path in the registry. Resolution will occur in a similar way to standard Ruby identifier resolution, doing lexical lookup, as well as (optionally) through the inheritance chain. A proxy object can be returned if the lookup fails for future resolution. The proxy will be type hinted with the type used in the original lookup.

Examples:

A lookup from root

resolver.lookup_by_path("A::B::C")

A lookup from the A::B namespace

resolver.lookup_by_path("C", namespace: P("A::B"))

A lookup on a method through the inheritance tree

resolver.lookup_by_math("A::B#foo", inheritance: true)

Parameters:

  • opts (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    a customizable set of options

Options Hash (opts):

  • namespace (CodeObjects::Base, :root, nil) — default: nil —

    the namespace object to start searching from. If root or nil is provided, YARD::Registry.root is assumed.

  • inheritance (Boolean) — default: false —

    whether to perform lookups through the inheritance chain (includes mixins)

  • proxy_fallback (Boolean) — default: false —

    when true, a proxy is returned if no match is found

  • type (Symbol) — default: nil —

    an optional type hint for the resolver to consider when performing a lookup. If a type is provided and the resolved object’s type does not match the hint, the object is discarded.

Returns:

  • (CodeObjects::Base, CodeObjects::Proxy, nil) —

    the first object that matches the path lookup. If proxy_fallback is provided, a proxy object will be returned in the event of no match, otherwise nil will be returned.

Since:

  • 0.9.1
