Xr¶ ↑

Domain specific language (DSL) for Ruby’s regular expression.

Installation¶ ↑

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

$ bundle add xr

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

$ gem install xr

Usage¶ ↑

Please see syntax.ja.rdoc (Japanese) or tests.

For a really simple example, digits can be written as…

Xr { _ + /\d/ }

… which compiles to \d+ or something like that.

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 the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
