= Indentation
* http://github.com/samueldana/indentation
== DESCRIPTION:
A small library of extensions to Ruby's Array and String classes that allow indentation manipulation of Strings and Arrays of Strings. Has the capability of working with multi-line strings. If you frequently use String arrays to manipulate text, see synopsis (In README.rdoc) for examples of how indentation can make your life easier.
== EXAMPLES:
=== Indent
# Default indentation is 2 spaces
"test".indent # => " test"
# Amount of indentation can be changed
"test".indent(3) # => " test"
# Indentation character (or string) is set as the second parameter of indent.
"test".indent(2, "\t") # => "\t\ttest"
# Operates on multi-line strings
"this\nis\na\ntest".indent # => " this\n is\n a\n test"
# Indent method accepts negative values (Removes tabs, spaces, and supplied indentation string)
" test".indent(-1) # => " test"
"\t test".indent(-5) # => "test"
"\t-- Test".indent(-10) # => "-- Test"
"\t-- Test".indent(-10, '-') # => "Test"
"--- Test".indent(-2, '--') # => "- Test"
# Operates on arrays
["one", "two"].indent # => [" one", " two"]
[["one", " two"], ["uno", "\t\tdos"]].indent # => [[" one", " two"], [" uno", " \t\tdos"]]
=== Reset Indentation
# 'resets' the indentation of a string by finding the least amount of indentation in the String/Array, and
# removing that amount from every line.
" def method_name\n # Do stuff\n end".reset_indentation # => "def method_name\n # Do stuff\nend"
# Operates on arrays
[" def method_name", " # Do stuff", " end"].reset_indentation # => ["def method_name", " # Do stuff", "end"]
# Useful for heredocs - must chomp to remove trailing newline
my_string = <<-EOS.chomp.reset_indentation
def method_name
# Do stuff
end
EOS
my_string # => "def method_name\n # Do stuff\nend"
# Accepts an indentation modifier
" one\n two".reset_indentation(1) # => " one\n two"
" one\n two".reset_indentation(0) # => " one\ntwo" # Default behavior
" one\n two".reset_indentation(-1) # => "one\ntwo"
=== Append Separator
# Given an Array of Arrays or an Array of Strings, appends a separator object to all but the last element in the Array.
# NOTE: For an Array of Strings the separator object must be a String, since it is appended to other Strings
["arg1", "arg2", "arg3"].append_separator("!") # => ["arg1!", "arg2!", "arg3"]
[["line1"], ["line2"], ["line3"]].append_separator("") # => [["line1", ""], ["line2", ""], ["line3"]]
[["line1", "line2"], ["line3", "line4"]].append_separator("") # => [["line1", "line2", ""], ["line3", "line4"]]
# Useful combined with indent and join
vars = ["var1", "var2", "var3", "var4"]
method_def = ["def add_up(#{vars.join(', ')})"]
method_body = vars.append_separator(" + ")
method_def += method_body.indent
method_def << "end"
method_def.join("\n") # =>
# def add_up(var1, var2, var3, var4)
# var1 +
# var2 +
# var3 +
# var4
# end
# Handy for separating arrays of string arrays
test_array = [["this", "is", "a", "test"], ["quick", "brown", "fox"], ["lazy", "typist"]]
test_array.append_separator("").join("\n") # =>
# this
# is
# a
# test
#
# quick
# brown
# fox
#
# lazy
# typist
=== Find Least Indentation
# Given a String or Array of Strings, finds the least indentation on any line. Splits on newlines found within strings
# to find the least indentation within a multi-line String
" test".find_least_indentation # => 2
" three\n two \n one".find_least_indentation # => 1
[" two", " three", " four"].find_least_indentation # => 2
[" two", " three", [" four", " five\n one"]].find_least_indentation # => 1
# Option to ignore blank (no characters whatsoever) lines.
# Note, disabling this option will automatically disable :ignore_empty_lines
# Default => true
" three\n".find_least_indentation # => 3
" three\n".find_least_indentation(:ignore_blank_lines => false) # => 0
# Option to ignore both blank lines (no characters whatsoever) and empty lines (whitespace-only)
# Implies :ignore_blank_lines => true when enabled
# Default => true
" three\n ".find_least_indentation # => 3
" three\n ".find_least_indentation(:ignore_empty_lines => false) # => 1
" three\n".find_least_indentation # => 3
" three\n".find_least_indentation(:ignore_empty_lines => false) # => 0
# To ignore blank, but not empty, lines:
" three\n ".find_least_indentation(:ignore_blank_lines => true, :ignore_empty_lines => false) # => 1
" three\n".find_least_indentation(:ignore_blank_lines => true, :ignore_empty_lines => false) # => 3
=== English Array Join
# Given an Array of Strings and an optional conjunction, joins them using English list punctuation
# to find the least indentation within a multi-line String
['one', 'two'].english_join # => "one and two"
['one', 'two', 'three'].english_join # => "one, two, and three"
# Different conjunction
['one', 'two', 'three'].english_join('or') # => "one, two, or three"
# Different separator
['one', 'two', 'three'].english_join('or', ' ') # => "one two or three"
