#[repr(transparent)]
pub struct Binding(_);
Expand description

A Value known to be an instance of Binding.

All Value methods should be available on this type through Deref, but some may be missed by this documentation.

Implementations

👎 Deprecated since 0.2.0:

this will no longer function as of Ruby 3.2

Create a new Binding from the current Ruby execution context.

Examples
use magnus::Binding;

let binding = Binding::new();

Return Some(Binding) if val is a Binding, None otherwise.

Evaluate a string of Ruby code within the binding’s context.

Examples
use magnus::{eval, Binding};

let binding = eval::<Binding>("binding").unwrap();
assert_eq!(binding.eval::<_, i64>("1 + 2").unwrap(), 3);

Get the named local variable from the binding.

Returns Ok(T) if the method returns without error and the return value converts to a T, or returns Err if the local variable does not exist or the conversion fails.

Examples
use magnus::{eval, Binding, Value};

let binding = eval::<Binding>("binding").unwrap();
binding.local_variable_set("a", 1);
assert_eq!(binding.local_variable_get::<_, i64>("a").unwrap(), 1);
assert!(binding.local_variable_get::<_, Value>("b").is_err());

Set the named local variable in the binding.

Examples
use magnus::{eval, Binding};

let binding = eval::<Binding>("binding").unwrap();
binding.local_variable_set("a", 1);
assert_eq!(binding.local_variable_get::<_, i64>("a").unwrap(), 1);

Methods from Deref<Target = Value>

Convert self to a Rust string.

Safety

This may return a direct view of memory owned and managed by Ruby. Ruby may modify or free the memory backing the returned str, the caller must ensure this does not happen.

This can be used safely by immediately calling into_owned on the return value.

Examples
use magnus::{eval, QTRUE};

let value = QTRUE;
// safe as we neve give Ruby a chance to free the string.
let s = unsafe { value.to_s() }.unwrap().into_owned();
assert_eq!(s, "true");

Return the name of self’s class.

Safety

Ruby may modify or free the memory backing the returned str, the caller must ensure this does not happen.

This can be used safely by immediately calling into_owned on the return value.

Examples
use magnus::{eval, RHash};

let value = RHash::new();
// safe as we neve give Ruby a chance to free the string.
let s = unsafe { value.classname() }.into_owned();
assert_eq!(s, "Hash");

Convert self to the Rust type T.

See the types that TryConvert is implemented on for what this method can convert to.

Examples
use magnus::{eval, Value};

assert_eq!(eval::<Value>("42").unwrap().try_convert::<i64>().unwrap(), 42);
assert_eq!(eval::<Value>("1.23").unwrap().try_convert::<i64>().unwrap(), 1);
assert_eq!(eval::<Value>("1").unwrap().try_convert::<f64>().unwrap(), 1.0);
assert_eq!(eval::<Value>("nil").unwrap().try_convert::<Option<i64>>().unwrap(), None);
assert_eq!(eval::<Value>("42").unwrap().try_convert::<Option<i64>>().unwrap(), Some(42));
