if ci_badges.map(&:color).detect { it != "green"} ☝️ let me know, as I may have missed the discord notification.

if ci_badges.map(&:color).all? { it == "green"} 👇️ send money so I can do more of this. FLOSS maintenance is now my full-time job.

AnonymousLoader evaluates Ruby source files inside fresh anonymous modules. It is useful when a tool needs to inspect or reuse code that declares constants whose top-level names may collide with the host process.

The loaded source keeps its normal constant nesting, but that nesting starts inside the returned anonymous namespace. For example, source that declares Auth::Sanitizer becomes namespace::Auth::Sanitizer, and does not create Object::Auth.

AnonymousLoader can load explicitly named files, or resolve a file using RubyGems metadata with a $LOAD_PATH fallback. The fallback is intended for Bundler standalone and similar environments where code is loadable but a gem is not visible through Gem.loaded_specs or the normal RubyGems index.

Compatible with MRI Ruby 2.2.0+, and concordant releases of JRuby, and TruffleRuby. CI workflows and Appraisals are generated for MRI Ruby 2.4+. This test floor is configured by ruby.test_minimum in .kettle-jem.yml and may be higher than the gem's runtime compatibility floor when legacy Rubies are not practical for the current toolchain.

Available as part of the Tidelift Subscription.

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

bundle add anonymous_loader

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

gem install anonymous_loader

AnonymousLoader has no global configuration. Each call is configured with keyword arguments, so callers can choose the resolution strategy per load.

Resolution order:

1. path: loads an explicit file path.
2. gem_name: plus require_path: resolves through RubyGems metadata when the gem is loaded or installed.
3. require_path: falls back to $LOAD_PATH via RubyGems file discovery.

When using the $LOAD_PATH fallback with version_requirement:, pass version_file: so AnonymousLoader can validate the nearby library version before evaluating the target file. If a file is present but the discovered version is outside the requested range, AnonymousLoader::VersionMismatchError is raised. If no candidate can be resolved, AnonymousLoader::FileNotFoundError is raised.

namespace = AnonymousLoader.load(files: "path/to/library.rb")
isolated = namespace.const_get(:Auth).const_get(:Sanitizer)

The source's natural nesting is preserved under the anonymous namespace. A file that declares Auth::Sanitizer becomes namespace::Auth::Sanitizer, while Object::Auth remains undefined.

Files can be resolved from RubyGems metadata or from $LOAD_PATH:

namespace = AnonymousLoader.load_path(
  gem_name: "auth-sanitizer",
  require_path: "auth_sanitizer/loader.rb",
  version_requirement: "~> 0.2",
  version_file: "auth/sanitizer/version.rb"
)

The $LOAD_PATH fallback supports Bundler standalone setups where a dependency is loadable but absent from Gem.loaded_specs and GEM_PATH.

While ruby-oauth tools are free software and will always be, the project would benefit immensely from some funding. Raising a monthly budget of... "dollars" would make the project more sustainable.

We welcome both individual and corporate sponsors! We also offer a wide array of funding channels to account for your preferences. Currently, Open Collective is our preferred funding platform.

If you're working in a company that's making significant use of ruby-oauth tools we'd appreciate it if you suggest to your company to become a ruby-oauth sponsor.

You can support the development of ruby-oauth tools via GitHub Sponsors, Liberapay, PayPal, Open Collective and Tidelift.

Support us with a monthly donation and help us continue our activities. [Become a backer]

I’m driven by a passion to foster a thriving open-source community – a space where people can tackle complex problems, no matter how small. Revitalizing libraries that have fallen into disrepair, and building new libraries focused on solving real-world challenges, are my passions. I was recently affected by layoffs, and the tech jobs market is unwelcoming. I’m reaching out here because your support would significantly aid my efforts to provide for my family, and my farm (11 🐔 chickens, 2 🐶 dogs, 3 🐰 rabbits, 8 🐈‍ cats).

If you work at a company that uses my work, please encourage them to support me as a corporate sponsor. My work on gems you use might show up in bundle fund.

I’m developing a new library, floss_funding, designed to empower open-source developers like myself to get paid for the work we do, in a sustainable way. Please give it a look.

See SECURITY.md.

If you need some ideas of where to help, you could work on adding more code coverage, or if it is already 💯 (see below) check issues or PRs, or use the gem and think about how it could be better.

We so if you make changes, remember to update it.

⭐️ Star History

This library follows for its public API where practical. For most applications, prefer the Pessimistic Version Constraint with two digits of precision.

For example:

spec.add_dependency("anonymous_loader", "~> 0.0")

See CHANGELOG.md for a list of releases.

The gem is available as open source under the terms of the MIT .

See LICENSE.md for the official copyright notice.

Maintainers have teeth and need to pay their dentists. After getting laid off in an RIF in March, and encountering difficulty finding a new one, I began spending most of my time building open source tools. I'm hoping to be able to pay for my kids' health insurance this month, so if you value the work I am doing, I need your support. Please consider sponsoring me or the project.
