rspec-puppet matchers are defined for tests which exist in
spec/functions, but the function unit tests lived in
spec/unit/puppet/parser/functions. This moves them to the correct place
for using rspec-puppet
I expect a function called "is_numeric" or "is_integer" to check if a
variable is an integer or a number even if the variable passed by isn't
a string nor a number at all. Otherwise we should call them
is_string_a_number and is_string_an_integer and we have then to remove
the check for .is_a?(Number) and .is_a?(FixNum)
now checking also if it is a hex or octal number
improved/corrected checking for integer
* checking against Integer instead of Fixnum so that
also Bignum is matching
* now .is_a? Integer is done first so this is quiet fast
Now many types of numerics are recognized.
1. Float/Integer values (signed or unsigned, with exponent or without)
2. octal and hex check
3. except hex numbers and the "0." in a float lower than 1 can be prefixed
with a '0'.
whitespaces shouldn't be allowed as prefix/suffix
string representation of numbers should not contain any type of
whitespace.. the user is responsible to clean a string before checking
it..
fix documentation and added more checks
tried to be 99.9% backward compatible
* for now the decission is post poned if hex and octal numbers
should be allowed or not (is_numeric)
* native Bignum is now also a valid integer class
fix problem with old 1.8 ruby and Hash.to_s/Array.to_s
In ruby < 1.9 array and hashes would be recognized as numeric
if they have a special format:
1.8:
[1,2,3,4].to_s = "1234"
{1=>2}.to_s = "12"
1.9:
[1,2,3,4].to_s = "[1, 2, 3, 4]"
{1=>2}.to_s = "{1=>2}"
The module PuppetlabsSpec::PuppetSeams has been renamed in the
puppetlabs_spec_helper gem to PuppetlabsSpec::PuppetInternals.
The method to obtain a scope object has also changed slightly. Without
this patch the spec tests will fail because the stdlib module is not
aligned with the spec helper gem. This patch fixes the problem by
matching up messages with their receivers in the spec helper library.
Paired-with: Andrew Parker <andy@puppetlabs.com>
Without this patch all of the spec tests for parser functions in stdlib
would instantiate their own scope instances. This is a problem because
the standard library is tightly coupled with the internal behavior of
Puppet. Tight coupling like this creates failures when we change the
internal behavior of Puppet. This is exactly what happened recently
when we changed the method signature for the initializer of
Puppet::Parser::Scope instances.
This patch fixes the problem by creating scope instances using the
puppet labs spec helper. The specific method that provides scope
instances in Puppet-version-independent way is something like this:
let(:scope) { PuppetlabsSpec::PuppetSeams.parser_scope }
This patch simply implements this across the board.
This time around I actually know why I'm doing this thanks to the
reminder from Nick Lewis.
Ruby will replace itself in memory with the executable listed in the
interpreter line if the string "ruby" is not in there.
Since /usr/bin/env rspec doesn't contain the substring "ruby", you can't
actually run ruby -W1 or whatever on the file.
This patch fixes the problem by making sure "ruby" is present,
preventing ruby from replacing itself in memory.
