Brototype

Bro, do you even Ruby?

This is a ruby port of the popular brototype.js library that can be found here: https://github.com/letsgetrandy/brototype

Features

You've got a deeply-nested set of objects that may or may not always be there. We've all seen something like this:

if params && params[:model] && params[:model][:id]
    # do something
end

We all hate that, don't we?

So what if you could just type:

Brototype::Bro.new(params).i_can_haz(:model,:id)

Or better yet, how about:

Brototype::Bro.new(params).i_dont_always(:model,:id).but_when_i do |id|
  puts id
end

Fetch nested properties by string or key:

Brototype::Bro.new(:foo => {:bar => 1}).i_can_haz(:foo,:bar)
Brototype::Bro.new('foo' => {'bar' => 1}).i_can_haz('foo','bar')

Handling exceptions

Brototype::Bro.new(@anon_class).brace_yourself('throws_error').here_come_the_errors do |e|
  puts 'error ' + e + ' happened.'
end

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'brototype'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install brototype

Rspec is used to run the tests, just do:

rake spec
