Method

Method objects are created by Object#method, and are associated with a particular object (not just with a class). They may be used to invoke the method within the object, and as a block associated with an iterator. They may also be unbound from one object (creating an UnboundMethod) and bound to another.

class Thing
  def square(n)
    n*n
  end
end
thing = Thing.new
meth  = thing.method(:square)

meth.call(9)                 #=> 81
[ 1, 2, 3 ].collect(&meth)   #=> [1, 4, 9]

[ 1, 2, 3 ].each(&method(:puts)) #=> prints 1, 2, 3

require 'date'
%w[2017-03-01 2017-03-02].collect(&Date.method(:parse))
#=> [#<Date: 2017-03-01 ((2457814j,0s,0n),+0s,2299161j)>, #<Date: 2017-03-02 ((2457815j,0s,0n),+0s,2299161j)>]

Public Instance Methods

meth << g → a_proc click to toggle source

Returns a proc that is the composition of this method and the given g. The returned proc takes a variable number of arguments, calls g with them then calls this method with the result.

def f(x)
  x * x
end

f = self.method(:f)
g = proc {|x| x + x }
p (f << g).call(2) #=> 16

 
               static VALUE

    g = to_callable(g);
    self = method_to_proc(self);
    return proc_compose_to_left(self, g);
}
meth == other_meth → true or false click to toggle source

Two method objects are equal if they are bound to the same object and refer to the same method definition and their owners are the same class or module.

 
               static VALUE
method_eq(VALUE method, VALUE other)
{
    struct METHOD *m1, *m2;

        return Qfalse;
    }

    return Qtrue;
}
method === obj → result_of_method click to toggle source

Invokes the method with obj as the parameter like call. This allows a method object to be the target of a when clause in a case statement.

require 'prime'

case 1373
when Prime.method(:prime?)
  # ...
end

 
               static VALUE

    return rb_method_call_with_block_kw(argc, argv, method, procval, RB_PASS_CALLED_KEYWORDS);
}
meth >> g → a_proc click to toggle source

Returns a proc that is the composition of this method and the given g. The returned proc takes a variable number of arguments, calls this method with them then calls g with the result.

def f(x)
  x * x
end

f = self.method(:f)
g = proc {|x| x + x }
p (f >> g).call(2) #=> 8

 
               static VALUE

    self = method_to_proc(self);
    return proc_compose_to_right(self, g);
}
meth[args, ...] → obj click to toggle source

Invokes the meth with the specified arguments, returning the method's return value, like call.

m = 12.method("+")

    return rb_method_call_with_block_kw(argc, argv, method, procval, RB_PASS_CALLED_KEYWORDS);
}
arity → integer click to toggle source

Returns an indication of the number of arguments accepted by a method. Returns a nonnegative integer for methods that take a fixed number of arguments. For Ruby methods that take a variable number of arguments, returns -n-1, where n is the number of required arguments. Keyword arguments will be considered as a single additional argument, that argument being mandatory if any keyword argument is mandatory. For methods written in C, returns -1 if the call takes a variable number of arguments.

class C
  def one;    end
  def two(a); end
  def three(*a);  end
  def four(a, b); end
  def five(a, b, *c);    end
  def six(a, b, *c, &d); end
  def seven(a, b, x:0); end
  def eight(x:, y:); end
  def nine(x:, y:, **z); end
  def ten(*a, x:, y:); end
end
c = C.new
c.method(:one).arity     #=> 0

               static VALUE
method_arity_m(VALUE method)
{
    int n = method_arity(method);
    return INT2FIX(n);
}
call(args, ...) → obj click to toggle source

Invokes the meth with the specified arguments, returning the method's return value.

m = 12.method("+")
m.call(3)    #=> 15
m.call(20)   #=> 32

 
               static VALUE

    return rb_method_call_with_block_kw(argc, argv, method, procval, RB_PASS_CALLED_KEYWORDS);
}
clone → new_method click to toggle source

Returns a clone of this method.

class A
  def foo
    return "bar"
  end
end

m = A.new.method(:foo)
m.call # => "bar"
n = m.clone.call # => "bar"

 
               static VALUE

    RB_OBJ_WRITE(clone, &data->me, rb_method_entry_clone(orig->me));
    return clone;
}
curry → proc click to toggle source
curry(arity) → proc

Returns a curried proc based on the method. When the proc is called with a number of arguments that is lower than the method's arity, then another curried proc is returned. Only when enough arguments have been supplied to satisfy the method signature, will the method actually be called.

The optional arity argument should be supplied when currying methods with variable arguments to determine how many arguments are needed before the method is called.

def foo(a,b,c)
  [a, b, c]
end

proc  = self.method(:foo).curry
proc2 = proc.call(1, 2)          #=> #<Proc>
proc2.call(3)                    #=> [1,2,3]

def vararg(*args)
  args
end

proc = self.method(:vararg).curry(4)
proc2 = proc.call(:x)      #=> #<Proc>
proc3 = proc2.call(:y, :z) #=> #<Proc>
proc3.call(:a)             #=> [:x, :y, :z, :a]

 
               static VALUE
rb_method_curry(int argc, const VALUE *argv, VALUE self)
{
    VALUE proc = method_to_proc(self);
    return proc_curry(argc, argv, proc);
}
eql?(other_meth) → true or false click to toggle source

Two method objects are equal if they are bound to the same object and refer to the same method definition and their owners are the same class or module.

 
               static VALUE
method_eq(VALUE method, VALUE other)
{
    struct METHOD *m1, *m2;
    VALUE klass1, klass2;

    if (!rb_obj_is_method(other))
        return Qfalse;
    if (CLASS_OF(method) != CLASS_OF(other))
        return Qfalse;

    Check_TypedStruct(method, &method_data_type);
    m1 = (struct METHOD *)DATA_PTR(method);
    m2 = (struct METHOD *)DATA_PTR(other);

    klass2 = method_entry_defined_class(m2->me);

        m1->klass != m2->klass ||

        return Qfalse;
    }

    return Qtrue;
}
hash → integer click to toggle source

Returns a hash value corresponding to the method object.

See also Object#hash.

 
               static VALUE
method_hash(VALUE method)
{
    struct METHOD *m;
    st_index_t hash;

    TypedData_Get_Struct(method, struct METHOD, &method_data_type, m);
    hash = rb_hash_start((st_index_t)m->recv);
    hash = rb_hash_method_entry(hash, m->me);
    hash = rb_hash_end(hash);

    return ST2FIX(hash);
}
inspect → string click to toggle source

Returns a human-readable description of the underlying method.

"cat".method(:count).inspect   #=> "#<Method: String#count(*)>"
(1..3).method(:map).inspect    #=> "#<Method: Range(Enumerable)#map()>"

In the latter case, the method description includes the “owner” of the original method (Enumerable module, which is included into Range).

inspect also provides, when possible, method argument names (call sequence) and source location.

require 'net/http'
Net::HTTP.method(:get).inspect
#=> "#<Method: Net::HTTP.get(uri_or_host, path=..., port=...) <skip>/lib/ruby/2.7.0/net/http.rb:457>"

... in argument definition means argument is optional (has some default value).

For methods defined in C (language core and extensions), location and argument names can't be extracted, and only generic information is provided in form of * (any number of arguments) or _ (some positional argument).

"cat".method(:count).inspect   #=> "#<Method: String#count(*)>"
"cat".method(:+).inspect       #=> "#<Method: String#+(_)>""

to_s → string click to toggle source

Returns a human-readable description of the underlying method.

"cat".method(:count).inspect   #=> "#<Method: String#count(*)>"
(1..3).method(:map).inspect    #=> "#<Method: Range(Enumerable)#map()>"

In the latter case, the method description includes the “owner” of the original method (Enumerable module, which is included into Range).

inspect also provides, when possible, method argument names (call sequence) and source location.

require 'net/http'
Net::HTTP.method(:get).inspect
#=> "#<Method: Net::HTTP.get(uri_or_host, path=..., port=...) <skip>/lib/ruby/2.7.0/net/http.rb:457>"

... in argument definition means argument is optional (has some default value).

For methods defined in C (language core and extensions), location and argument names can't be extracted, and only generic information is provided in form of * (any number of arguments) or _ (some positional argument).

"cat".method(:count).inspect   #=> "#<Method: String#count(*)>"
"cat".method(:+).inspect       #=> "#<Method: String#+(_)>""
