Overview

A path represents a sequence of transitions that can be run for a particular object. Paths can walk to new transitions, revealing all of the possible branches that can be encountered in the object’s state machine.

Constructor Details

#initialize(object, machine, options = {}) ⇒ Path

Creates a new transition path for the given object. Initially this is an empty path. In order to start walking the path, it must be populated with an initial transition.

Configuration options:

  • :target - The target state to end the path on

  • :guard - Whether to guard transitions with the if/unless conditionals defined for each one

  @object = object
  @machine = machine

Instance Method Details

#complete? ⇒ Boolean

Determines whether or not this path has completed. A path is considered complete when one of the following conditions is met:

  • The last transition in the path ends on the target state

  • There are no more transitions remaining to walk and there is no target state

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

def complete?
  !empty? && (@target ? to_name == @target : transitions.empty?)
end

#events ⇒ Object

Lists all of the events that can be fired through this path.

For example,

path.events # => [:park, :ignite, :shift_up, ...]

#from_states ⇒ Object

Lists all of the from states that can be reached through this path.

For example,

path.to_states  # => [:parked, :idling, :first_gear, ...]

#to_name ⇒ Object

The end state name for this path. If a target state was specified for the path, then that will be returned if the path is complete.
