This gems adds an export: keyword parameter to refine to export the refined methods into either the receiver (export: true) or a particular module (export: MyMod).

using RefineExport

module Extension
  refine String, export: true do
    def twice
      self * 2
    end
  end
end

Extension.instance_methods # => [:twice] (because of export)

# May be used either:
using Extension
'foo'.twice # => 'foofoo'

# or the module may be included:
Integer.include Extension
21.twice # => 42

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
