# RDoc::Parser::Ruby

Extracts code elements from a source file returning a TopLevel object containing the constituent file elements.

This file is based on rtags

RubyParser understands how to document:

- classes

- modules

- methods

- constants

- aliases

- private, public, protected

- private_class_function, public_class_function

- module_function

- attr, attr_reader, attr_writer, attr_accessor

- extra accessors given on the command line

- metaprogrammed methods

- require

- include

## Method Arguments

The parser extracts the arguments from the method definition. You can override this with a custom argument definition using the :call-seq: directive:

    ##
    # This method can be called with a range or an offset and length
    #
    # :call-seq:
    #   my_method(Range)
    #   my_method(offset, length)

    def my_method(*args)
    end

The parser extracts `yield` expressions from method bodies to gather the yielded argument names. If your method manually calls a block instead of yielding or you want to override the discovered argument names use the :yields: directive:

    ##
    # My method is awesome

    def my_method(&block) # :yields: happy, times
      block.call 1, 2
    end

## Metaprogrammed Methods

To pick up a metaprogrammed method, the parser looks for a comment starting with '##' before an identifier:

    ##
    # This is a meta-programmed method!

    add_my_method :meta_method, :arg1, :arg2

The parser looks at the token after the identifier to determine the name, in this example, :meta_method. If a name cannot be found, a warning is printed and 'unknown is used.

You can force the name of a method using the :method: directive:

    ##
    # :method: some_method!

By default, meta-methods are instance methods. To indicate that a method is a singleton method instead use the :singleton-method: directive:

    ##
    # :singleton-method:

You can also use the :singleton-method: directive with a name:

    ##
    # :singleton-method: some_method!

You can define arguments for metaprogrammed methods via either the :call-seq:, :arg: or :args: directives.

Additionally you can mark a method as an attribute by using :attr:, :attr_reader:, :attr_writer: or :attr_accessor:. Just like for :method:, the name is optional.

    ##
    # :attr_reader: my_attr_name

## Hidden methods and attributes

You can provide documentation for methods that don't appear using the :method:, :singleton-method: and :attr: directives:

    ##
    # :attr_writer: ghost_writer
    # There is an attribute here, but you can't see it!

    ##
    # :method: ghost_method
    # There is a method here, but you can't see it!

    ##
    # this is a comment for a regular method

    def regular_method() end

Note that by default, the :method: directive will be ignored if there is a standard rdocable item following it.

read_directive(allowed) click to toggle source

Directives are modifier comments that can appear after class, module, or method names. For example:

    def fred # :yields: a, b

or:

    class MyClass # :nodoc:

We return the directive name and any parameters as a two element array if the name is in `allowed`. A directive can be found anywhere up to the end of the current line.

    # File lib/rdoc/parser/ruby.rb, line 1926
    def read_directive allowed
      tokens = []

      while tk = get_tk do
        tokens << tk

        case tk
        when TkNL, TkDEF then
          return
        when TkCOMMENT then
          return unless tk.text =~ /\s*:?([\w-]+):\s*(.*)/

          directive = $1.downcase

          return [directive, $2] if allowed.include? directive

          return
        end
      end
    ensure
      unless tokens.length == 1 and TkCOMMENT === tokens.first then
