Class: SyntaxSuggest::CaptureCodeContext

Relationships & Source Files
Inherits: Object
Defined in: lib/syntax_suggest/capture_code_context.rb

Overview

Turns a “invalid block(s)” into useful context

There are three main phases in the algorithm:

  1. Sanitize/format input source

  2. Search for invalid blocks

  3. Format invalid blocks into something meaninful

This class handles the third part.

The algorithm is very good at capturing all of a syntax error in a single block in number 2, however the results can contain ambiguities. Humans are good at pattern matching and filtering and can mentally remove extraneous data, but they can’t add extra data that’s not present.

In the case of known ambiguious cases, this class adds context back to the ambiguitiy so the programmer has full information.

Beyond handling these ambiguities, it also captures surrounding code context information:

puts block.to_s # => "def bark"

context = CaptureCodeContext.new(
  blocks: block,
  code_lines: code_lines
)

lines = context.call.map(&:original)
puts lines.join
# =>
  class Dog
    def bark
  end

    #capture_before_after_kws(block)  
  



  

    

Shows surrounding kw/end pairs



The purpose of showing these extra pairs is due to cases of ambiguity when only one visible line is matched.



For example:



1  class Dog
2    def bark
4    def eat
5    end
6  end



In this case either line 2 could be missing an end or line 4 was an extra line added by mistake (it happens).



When we detect the above problem it shows the issue as only being on line 2



2    def bark



Showing “neighbor” keyword pairs gives extra context:



2    def bark
4    def eat
5    end

def capture_before_after_kws(block)
  return unless block.visible_lines.count == 1

  around_lines = Capture::BeforeAfterKeywordEnds.new(
    code_lines: @code_lines,
    block: block
  ).call

  around_lines -= block.lines

  @lines_to_output.concat(around_lines)
end


  








  

    #capture_falling_indent(block)  
  



  

    

Shows the context around code provided by “falling” indentation



Converts:



it "foo" do



into:



class OH
  def hello
    it "foo" do
  end
end

    block: block,
    code_lines: @code_lines
  ).call do |line|
    @lines_to_output << line
  end
end


  








  

    #capture_first_kw_end_same_indent(block)  
  



  

    

The logical inverse of #capture_last_end_same_indent



When there is an invalid block with an end missing a keyword right after another end, it is unclear where which end is missing the keyword.



Take this example:



class Dog       # 1
    puts "woof" # 2
  end           # 3
end             # 4



the problem line will be identified as:



> end            # 4



This happens because lines 1, 2, and 3 are technically valid code and are expanded first, deemed valid, and hidden. We need to un-hide the matching keyword on line 1. Also work backwards and if there’s a mis-matched end, show it too

    #capture_last_end_same_indent(block)  
  



  

    

When there is an invalid block with a keyword missing an end right before another end, it is unclear where which keyword is missing the end



Take this example:



class Dog       # 1
  def bark      # 2
    puts "woof" # 3
end             # 4



However due to github.com/ruby/syntax_suggest/issues/32 the problem line will be identified as:



> class Dog       # 1



Because lines 2, 3, and 4 are technically valid code and are expanded first, deemed valid, and hidden. We need to un-hide the matching end line 4. Also work backwards and if there’s a mis-matched keyword, show it too
