StringScanner
StringScanner provides for lexical scanning operations on a String.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'strscan'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install strscan
Usage
require 'strscan'
s = StringScanner.new('This is an example string')
s.eos? # -> false
p s.scan(/\w+/) # -> "This"
p s.scan(/\w+/) # -> nil
p s.scan(/\s+/) # -> " "
p s.scan(/\s+/) # -> nil
p s.scan(/\w+/) # -> "is"
s.eos? # -> false
p s.scan(/\s+/) # -> " "
p s.scan(/\w+/) # -> "an"
p s.scan(/\s+/) # -> " "
p s.scan(/\w+/) # -> "example"
p s.scan(/\s+/) # -> " "
p s.scan(/\w+/) # -> "string"
s.eos? # -> true
p s.scan(/\s+/) # -> nil
p s.scan(/\w+/) # -> nil
Development
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake to compile this and 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.
