将块中目录中的所有ruby文件作为内联代码包含在内

Question

Structure of ruby file is as shown below,

market
  |__abcd
       |__classification
              |__for_sale_mobile_phone.rb
              |__catalogues
                  |__mobile_phone_brands
                      |__acer.rb
                      |__apple.rb
                      |__samsung.rb

In for_sale_mobile_phone.rb , I like to include all brands of mobile_phone_brands under a block.

I m trying to include brands in below fashion,

 .....
    c.tree_field :brand, { child_key: :model } do |b|
      Dir[
        File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/catalogues/mobile_phone_brands/*.rb'
      ].each { |brand| load brand }

      b.required = true
    end
.....

here is how brand file looks like. for example, apple.rb

b.value "apple" do |brand|
  brand.value "6plus"
  brand.value "6s"
  brand.value "6s-plus"
  brand.value "se"
  brand.value "7"
  brand.value "7-plus"
  brand.value "other-model"
end

I m getting below error,

undefined local variable or method `b' on line 1: apple.rb

How can I include file under a block scope?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

You should separate file "loading" from function execution. Redefine your file like this.

class AppleLoader

  def self.load(b)
    b.value "apple" do |brand|
      brand.value "6plus"
      brand.value "6s"
      brand.value "6s-plus"
      brand.value "se"
      brand.value "7"
      brand.value "7-plus"
      brand.value "other-model"
    end
  end
end

On top of file you load required classes like this:

require '/catalogues/mobile_phone_brands/apple_loader.rb'

And when you want to load Apple brand in the b object:

AppleLoader.load b

Better Approach: To me it feels like Apple.rb defers from Samsung.rb only in terms of data. If that's the case, and functionality for both of them are same then I would rather:

1. put that data in a Yaml file( brands.yml ) instead of rb file.

     brands: apple: ["6plus", "6s"] samsung: ["galaxy"] 

2. Have just one common loader called BrandLoader

    class BrandLoader def self.load(b, brand_name, values) b.value brand_name do |brand| brand_values.each do |value| brand.value value end end end end 

3. Iterate over brands by reading Yaml

    configurations = YAML.load "brands.yml" configurations["brands"].each do |brand_name, values| BrandLoader.load(b, brand_name, values) end 

Answer 2

The way I figured out is by using eval but cautious read up is-eval-supposed-to-be-nasty , eval works for me as I'm not using user input.

To make any code in different file, execute as the code written in the place of call. Use eval(File.read(file_path)

 .....
    c.tree_field :brand, { child_key: :model } do |b|
      Dir[
        File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/catalogues/mobile_phone_brands/*.rb'
      ].each { |brand| eval(File.read(brand)) }

      b.required = true
    end
.....
