# RubyLambdas
Expose Ruby object methods as lambdas (functions).
## Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
```ruby
gem 'ruby-lambdas', require: 'ruby/lambdas'
```
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install ruby-lambdas
## Usage
**Basics:**
```ruby
require "ruby/lambdas"
Strings::Strip.call(" hello ") # => "hello"
# Strings::Trim is an alias to the Strings::Strip function
Strings::Trim.call(" hello ") # => "hello"
# Other ways to call a lambda (function):
Strings::Trim[" hello "]
Strings::Trim.(" hello ") # Syntactic sugar to hide “call”.
Strings::Trim.===(" hello ") # This allows a proc object to be the target of a when clause in a case statement.
Strings::Trim.yield(" hello ")
```
**Partial application (curried functions):**
```ruby
require "ruby/lambdas"
# We call a function with fewer arguments than it expects and It returns a
# function that takes the remaining arguments.
# And this is called Partial Application of Functions. e.g:
Strings::GSub.call(/[aeiou]/, "hello", "*") # => "h*ll*"
Strings::GSub.call(/[aeiou]/).call("hello", "*") # => "h*ll*"
Strings::GSub.call(/[aeiou]/).call("hello").call("*") # => "h*ll*"
# Last example with an alternative syntax:
Strings::GSub.(/[aeiou]/).("hello").("*") # => "h*ll*"
# ---
replace_vowels = Strings::GSub.call(/[aeiou]/)
replace_vowels.call("_", "banana") # => "b_n_n_"
# ---
hide_vowels = replace_vowels.call("*")
hide_vowels.call("hello") # => "h*ll*"
```
**Pipelines:**
```ruby
require "ruby/lambdas"
###########################
# RUBY_VERSION >= '2.6.0' #
###########################
value = ' I WILL be a url slug '
value
.then(&Strings::Strip)
.then(&Strings::Downcase)
.then(&Strings::GSub[' ', '-'])
# => "i-will-be-a-url-slug"
###########################
# RUBY_VERSION >= '2.5.0' #
###########################
value = ' I WILL be a url slug '
value
.yield_self(&Strings::Strip)
.yield_self(&Strings::Downcase)
.yield_self(&Strings::GSub[' ', '-'])
# => "i-will-be-a-url-slug"
```
**Composing functions (`RUBY_VERSION >= '2.6.0'`):**
```ruby
require "ruby/lambdas"
# -- Alternative syntax --
Slugify = # Slugify =
Strings::FromObject # Strings::String
.>> Strings::Strip # >> Strings::Trim \
.>> Strings::Downcase # >> Strings::LowerCase \
.>> Strings::GSub[' ', '-'] # >> Strings::ReplaceAll[' ', '-']
# Reading the previous composition (Step by step):
# 1. Convert a given object (first input) as a String
# 2. Remove all whitespaces from both sides of a string.
# 3. Convert a string to all lower case.
# 4. Replace all occurrences of " " by "-".
#########
# Usage #
#########
Slugify.(nil) # => ""
Slugify.(1) # => "1"
Slugify.(1.0) # => "1.0"
Slugify.(' I WILL be a url slug ') # => "i-will-be-a-url-slug"
```
### Strict mode
By default, all functions believe in their given inputs data types. To change this behavior, you can enable the strict mode (data type checking) via `require "ruby/lambdas/strict-mode"`. e.g:
```ruby
p ["2", "4"].map(&Numerics + "1") # => ["12", "14"]
require "ruby/lambdas/strict-mode"
p ["2", "4"].map(&Numerics + "1") # => Numerics::TypeError ("1" must be Numeric)
p ["2", "4"].map(&Numerics + 1) # => Numerics::TypeError ("2" must be Numeric)
p [2, "4"].map(&Numerics + 1) # => Numerics::TypeError ("4" must be Numeric)
p [2, 4].map(&Numerics + 1) # => [3, 5]
```

## Development
After checking out the repo, run `bin/setup` to install dependencies. Then, run `rake test` to run the tests. You can also run `bin/console` for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run `bundle exec rake install`. To release a new version, update the version number in `version.rb`, and then run `bundle exec rake release`, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the `.gem` file to [rubygems.org](https://rubygems.org).
