Ruby Block Converter

An Atom Package - Atom.io : Github

Convert Ruby blocks between single line and multi line formats. Or between curly brackets and do-end statements.

Instructions

{ } => do-end

Place the cursor in between the brackets and hit the shortcut.

do-end => { }

Place the cursor in between the do-end and hit the shortcut.

Features

• Hashes and string interpolation are ignored
• RSpec blocks are honored.
• There are separate commands if you don't want the block to collapse or join

How It Works

• It looks for the first starting block on the current line, then up. Upon success, it looks right, then down for a matching } or end.
• When there is a block with only one line of code: the curly converter will join the block onto one line; the do-end converter will separate the three lines and then auto-tab.
• It will only try up or down 6 lines, but this configurable in your settings.

Commands

'ruby-block-converter:to-curly-brackets'
'ruby-block-converter:to-curly-brackets-without-collapse'
'ruby-block-converter:to-do-end'
'ruby-block-converter:to-do-end-without-join'

Notes

• Version 4.0.0 introduces changes to the macOS keymaps
