  shell.say "Usage:"
  shell.say "  #{banner}\n"

invoke(*names, &block) click to toggle source

Invoke the given namespace or class given. It adds an instance method that will invoke the klass and command. You can give a block to configure how it will be invoked.

The namespace/class given will have its options showed on the help usage. Check invoke_from_option for more information.

 
               # File bundler/vendor/thor/lib/thor/group.rb, line 56
    def invoke(*names, &block)
      options = names.last.is_a?(Hash) ? names.pop : {}
      verbose = options.fetch(:verbose, true)

      names.each do |name|
        invocations[name] = false
        invocation_blocks[name] = block if block_given?

        class_eval <<-METHOD, __FILE__, __LINE__ + 1
          def _invoke_#{name.to_s.gsub(/\W/, '_')}
            klass, command = self.class.prepare_for_invocation(nil, #{name.inspect})

            if klass
              say_status :invoke, #{name.inspect}, #{verbose.inspect}
              block = self.class.invocation_blocks[#{name.inspect}]
              _invoke_for_class_method klass, command, &block
            else
              say_status :error, %(#{name.inspect} [not found]), :red
            end
          end
        METHOD
      end
    end
invoke_from_option(*names, &block) click to toggle source

Invoke a thor class based on the value supplied by the user to the given option named “name”. A class option must be created before this method is invoked for each name given.

Examples ↑

class GemGenerator < Bundler::Thor::Group
  class_option :test_framework, :type => :string
  invoke_from_option :test_framework
end

Boolean options ↑

In some cases, you want to invoke a thor class if some option is true or false. This is automatically handled by invoke_from_option. Then the option name is used to invoke the generator.

Preparing for invocation ↑

In some cases you want to customize how a specified hook is going to be invoked. You can do that by overwriting the class method prepare_for_invocation. The class method must necessarily return a klass and an optional command.

Custom invocations ↑

You can also supply a block to customize how the option is going to be invoked. The block receives two parameters, an instance of the current class and the klass to be invoked.

                              "before setting invoke_from_option."
