[ruby-core:117929] [Ruby master Feature#20498] Negated method calls
by MaxLap (Maxime Lapointe) 05 Jan '25

Issue #20498 has been reported by MaxLap (Maxime Lapointe). ---------------------------------------- Feature #20498: Negated method calls https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20498 * Author: MaxLap (Maxime Lapointe) * Status: Open ---------------------------------------- I want to propose the following syntax: `foo.!bar`. I know it's already valid syntax, but please read on for details. When someone write a somewhat long line of code that is negated, the main way I've seen of doing it is: ``` must_create_user = !User.where(somelong: :condition, even_more: "thing").exists? ``` I personally highly dislike it, as I must keep the "not" in the back of my mind as I read the line. When quickly reading a line like this, it's super easy to misread and understand the opposite result. The current ways around this I can think of are: * rename the variable (can be annoying) * Use `unless` (only possible when in a condition; some people, like me, have a hard time grapsping a `unless`) * use a `.!`in the end (`foo.exists?.!`), I've never seen that and it looks ugly to me (this is subjective). * create a new method name with the negated meaning (not always possible) My proposal would look like this: ``` must_create_user = User.where(somelong: :condition, even_more: "thing").!exists? ``` You cannot forget the bang that you saw 15 words ago, it's right there. It also basically reads as English: "user where ... doesn't exists". The main argument against this I can think of is that it's technically already a valid syntax. I believe it's frowned upon to override the bang operator and I'm not aware of places where it is overridden to with also having a parameter. I made a prototype in RubyNext, which you can try here: https://ruby-next.github.io/#gist:0e133bf6f27f2437193dc034d58083dc -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:119335] [Ruby master Bug#20770] A *new* pipe operator proposal

Issue #20770 has been reported by AlexandreMagro (Alexandre Magro). ---------------------------------------- Bug #20770: A *new* pipe operator proposal https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20770 * Author: AlexandreMagro (Alexandre Magro) * Status: Open * ruby -v: 3.3.5 * Backport: 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- Hello, This is my first contribution here. I have seen previous discussions around introducing a pipe operator, but it seems the community didn't reach a consensus. I would like to revisit this idea with a simpler approach, more of a syntactic sugar that aligns with how other languages implement the pipe operator, but without making significant changes to Ruby's syntax. Currently, we often write code like this: ```ruby value = half(square(add(value, 3))) ``` We can achieve the same result using the `then` method: ```ruby value = value.then { add(_1, 3) }.then { square(_1) }.then { half(_1) } ``` While `then` helps with readability, we can simplify it further using the proposed pipe operator: ```ruby value = add(value, 3) |> square(_1) |> half(_1) ``` Moreover, with the upcoming `it` feature in Ruby 3.4 (#18980), the code could look even cleaner: ```ruby value = add(value, 3) |> square(it) |> half(it) ``` This proposal uses the anonymous block argument `(_1)`, and with `it`, it simplifies the code without introducing complex syntax changes. It would allow us to achieve the same results as in other languages that support pipe operators, but in a way that feels natural to Ruby, using existing constructs like `then` underneath. I believe this operator would enhance code readability and maintainability, especially in cases where multiple operations are chained together. Thank you for considering this proposal! -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

Issue #20983 has been reported by Earlopain (Earlopain _). ---------------------------------------- Bug #20983: New `Ruby` module is linked to from all kinds of documentation pages https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20983 * Author: Earlopain (Earlopain _) * Status: Open * Backport: 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN, 3.4: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- For example https://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/master/index.html * "Ruby" Documentation * New to "Ruby"? * "Ruby" interpreter * Get invovled with the "Ruby" community * Contribute to "Ruby" Many other pages have a link to it as well, especially in headers it doesn't look very good. The vast majority of cases will talk about Ruby the language, not Ruby the module. Is there maybe an option in rdoc to block autoreferences to a specific module? I think documentation will look much better without this link everywhere. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

[ruby-core:120448] [Ruby master Bug#20994] C API - How to Create Classes with Non-ASCII characters in Name
by cfis (Charlie Savage) 31 Dec '24

Issue #20994 has been reported by cfis (Charlie Savage). ---------------------------------------- Bug #20994: C API - How to Create Classes with Non-ASCII characters in Name https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20994 * Author: cfis (Charlie Savage) * Status: Open * ruby -v: ruby 3.3.6 (2024-11-05 revision 75015d4c1f) [x64-mswin64_140] * Backport: 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN, 3.4: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- As part of Rice (Ruby C++ bindings), I am experimenting with using unicode characters to make more readable class names (see https://ruby-rice.github.io/4.x/stl/stl.html#automatically-generated-ruby-c…) I am experimenting with class names like this: ``` Map≺string≺char≻٬vector≺complex≺double≻≻≻` ``` Where < and > are actually Unicode characters precede (\u227A) and succeed (\u227B). In Ruby this works fine: ``` ruby irb(main):01> class Map≺string≺char≻٬vector≺complex≺double≻≻≻ irb(main):02> end => nil irb(main):013> Map≺string≺char≻٬vector≺complex≺double≻≻≻.new => #<Map≺string≺char≻٬vector≺complex≺double≻≻≻:0x0000021114674c98> ``` However, this fails using the Ruby C API `define_method`. Passing a `char*` that is utf8 encoded fails because `define_method` calls `rb_intern` which calls `rb_intern2` which forces the use of ascii encoding (see https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/5fec9308320e8b377681ef19b0cd46d53f94e8ac/…) I thought I might be able to define the class using ascii characters, and then call `rb_define_const` to add in a utf8 encoded name, but that also has the same problem. My question - how does one create class names that have non ascii characters in them via the C API? -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/

Issue #20943 has been reported by nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada). ---------------------------------------- Bug #20943: Constant defined in `Data` block https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20943 * Author: nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada) * Status: Open * Backport: 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- From https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/12274: > A couple times in code review I've seen constants inadvertently leak to top level from within a `Struct` or `Data` do block. I think it would be nice to show reopening the `Data` class when a constant is defined, so the constant is defined within the namespace. In this case, `Measure::NONE` instead of top level `Object::NONE`. It would also show readers that it's okay to reopen a `Data` class, which seems nice since some folk might not realize. Thanks for considering! However, I think that `NONE` probably might be intended to be defined under `Measure`. Current: ```ruby Measure = Data.define(:amount, :unit) do NONE = Data.define end p NONE #=> NONE ``` Another: ```ruby Measure = Data.define(:amount, :unit) do NONE = Data.define p NONE #=> Measure::NONE end p NONE # uninitialized constant NONE (NameError) ``` @zverok How do think? -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
