The RI driver implements the command-line ri tool.
The driver supports:
-
loading RI data from:
-
Ruby's standard library
-
RubyGems
-
~/.rdoc
-
A user-supplied directory
-
-
Paging output (uses RI_PAGER environment variable, PAGER environment variable or the less, more and pager programs)
-
Interactive mode with tab-completion
-
Abbreviated names (ri Zl shows Zlib documentation)
-
Colorized output
-
Merging output from multiple RI data sources
- A
- C
- D
- E
- F
- I
- L
- M
- N
- P
- R
- S

Converts document

Outputs formatted RI data for class name
. Groups undocumented
classes
Outputs formatted RI data for method name
Outputs formatted RI data for the class or method name
.
Returns true if name
was found, false if it was not an
alternative could be guessed, raises an error if name
couldn't be guessed.

Displays each name in name
Expands abbreviated klass klass
into a fully-qualified class.
“Zl::Da” will be expanded to Zlib::DataError.

Expands the class portion of name
into a fully-qualified
class. See expand_class.
Filters the methods in found
trying to find a match for
name
.
Yields items matching name
including the store they were found
in, the class being searched for, the class they were found in (an
ancestor) the types of methods to look up (from method_type), and the method
name being searched for
# File ../ruby/lib/rdoc/ri/driver.rb, line 803 def find_methods name klass, selector, method = parse_name name types = method_type selector klasses = nil ambiguous = klass.empty? if ambiguous then klasses = classes.keys else klasses = ancestors_of klass klasses.unshift klass end methods = [] klasses.each do |ancestor| ancestors = classes[ancestor] next unless ancestors klass = ancestor if ambiguous ancestors.each do |store| methods << [store, klass, ancestor, types, method] end end methods = methods.sort_by do |_, k, a, _, m| [k, a, m].compact end methods.each do |item| yield(*item) # :yields: store, klass, ancestor, types, method end self end
Creates a new RDoc::Markup::Formatter. If a formatter is given with -f, use it. If we're outputting to a pager, use bs, otherwise ansi.
Runs ri interactively using Readline if it is available.

Lists classes known to ri starting with names
. If

Loads RI data for method name

Returns the type of method (:both, :instance, :class) for
selector
Returns a regular expression for name
that will match an
RDoc::AnyMethod's name.
Paginates output through a pager program.
Are we using a pager?
Extracts the class, selector and method name parts from name
like Foo::Bar#baz.
NOTE: Given Foo::Bar, Bar is considered a class even though it may be a
method

Looks up and displays ri data according to the options given.
