Mzl

Difficult to understand versions of your favorite concepts.

What does it do?

Mzl provides a mzl method on classes that can be used to create DSLs and probably other things too. Since I find myself talking in circles when I try to explain it, let's look at some code.

require 'mzl'

class Dog
  mzl.override_new

  mzl.def :voice do |voice|
      @voice = voice
  end
    
  mzl.def :speak, persist: true do
      @voice
  end
end

spot = Dog.new do
  voice 'bark'
  speak # => 'bark'
end

spot.speak # => 'bark'
spot.voice 'ruff' # => NoMethodError: undefined method `voice' for #<Dog:0x007fe46b8bbd50 @voice="bark">

# and if you really want to change the voice, of course you can cheat
spot.mzl { voice 'ruff'}
spot.speak # => 'ruff'

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'mzl'
