9 1. Commands |ruby-commands| | |
10 2. The VIM module |ruby-vim| | |
11 3. VIM::Buffer objects |ruby-buffer| | |
12 4. VIM::Window objects |ruby-window| | |
13 5. Global variables |ruby-globals| | |

17 *E266* *E267* *E268* *E269* *E270* *E271* *E272* *E273* | |
18 | |
19 The Ruby interface only works when Vim was compiled with the |+ruby| feature. | |
20 | |
21 The home page for ruby is http://www.ruby-lang.org/. You can find links for | |
22 downloading Ruby there. | |
23 | |
24 ============================================================================== | |
25 1. Commands *ruby-commands* | |
26 | |
27 *:ruby* *:rub* | |
3750 | 28 :rub[y] {cmd} Execute Ruby command {cmd}. A command to try it out: > |
29 :ruby print "Hello" | |
7 | 30 |
31 :rub[y] << {endpattern} | |
32 {script} | |
33 {endpattern} | |
34 Execute Ruby script {script}. | |
35 {endpattern} must NOT be preceded by any white space. | |
36 If {endpattern} is omitted, it defaults to a dot '.' | |
236 | 37 like for the |:append| and |:insert| commands. This |
7 | 38 form of the |:ruby| command is mainly useful for |
39 including ruby code in vim scripts. | |
40 Note: This command doesn't work when the Ruby feature | |
41 wasn't compiled in. To avoid errors, see | |
42 |script-here|. | |
43 | |
44 Example Vim script: > | |
45 | |
46 function! RedGem() | |
47 ruby << EOF | |
48 class Garnet | |
49 def initialize(s) | |
50 @buffer = VIM::Buffer.current | |
51 vimputs(s) | |
52 end | |
53 def vimputs(s) | |
54 @buffer.append(@buffer.count,s) | |
55 end | |
56 end | |
57 gem = Garnet.new("pretty") | |
58 EOF | |
59 endfunction | |
60 < | |
61 | |
62 *:rubydo* *:rubyd* *E265* | |
63 :[range]rubyd[o] {cmd} Evaluate Ruby command {cmd} for each line in the | |
64 [range], with $_ being set to the text of each line in | |
236 | 65 turn, without a trailing <EOL>. Setting $_ will change |
7 | 66 the text, but note that it is not possible to add or |
67 delete lines using this command. | |
68 The default for [range] is the whole file: "1,$". | |
69 | |
70 *:rubyfile* *:rubyf* | |
71 :rubyf[ile] {file} Execute the Ruby script in {file}. This is the same as | |
72 ":ruby load 'file'", but allows file name completion. | |
73 | |
74 Executing Ruby commands is not possible in the |sandbox|. | |
75 | |
76 ============================================================================== | |
77 2. The VIM module *ruby-vim* | |
78 | |
79 Ruby code gets all of its access to vim via the "VIM" module. | |
80 | |

86 cw = VIM::Window.current # gets the current window | |

103 | |
104 Module Functions: | |
105 | |
106 *ruby-message* | |
107 VIM::message({msg}) | |
108 Displays the message {msg}. | |
109 | |
110 *ruby-set_option* | |
111 VIM::set_option({arg}) | |
112 Sets a vim option. {arg} can be any argument that the ":set" command | |
113 accepts. Note that this means that no spaces are allowed in the | |
114 argument! See |:set|. | |
115 | |
116 *ruby-command* | |
117 VIM::command({cmd}) | |
118 Executes Ex command {cmd}. | |
119 | |
120 *ruby-evaluate* | |
121 VIM::evaluate({expr}) | |
122 Evaluates {expr} using the vim internal expression evaluator (see | |
236 | 123 |expression|). Returns the expression result as a string. |
714 | 124 A |List| is turned into a string by joining the items and inserting |
125 line breaks. | |
7 | 126 |
127 ============================================================================== | |
128 3. VIM::Buffer objects *ruby-buffer* | |
129 | |
130 VIM::Buffer objects represent vim buffers. | |
131 | |
132 Class Methods: | |
133 | |
134 current Returns the current buffer object. | |
135 count Returns the number of buffers. | |
236 | 136 self[{n}] Returns the buffer object for the number {n}. The first number |
7 | 137 is 0. |
138 | |
139 Methods: | |
140 | |
141 name Returns the name of the buffer. | |
142 number Returns the number of the buffer. | |
143 count Returns the number of lines. | |
144 length Returns the number of lines. | |
145 self[{n}] Returns a line from the buffer. {n} is the line number. | |
146 self[{n}] = {str} | |
147 Sets a line in the buffer. {n} is the line number. | |
148 delete({n}) Deletes a line from the buffer. {n} is the line number. | |
149 append({n}, {str}) | |
150 Appends a line after the line {n}. | |
856 | 151 line Returns the current line of the buffer if the buffer is |
809 | 152 active. |
153 line = {str} Sets the current line of the buffer if the buffer is active. | |
154 line_number Returns the number of the current line if the buffer is | |
155 active. | |
7 | 156 |
157 ============================================================================== | |
158 4. VIM::Window objects *ruby-window* | |
159 | |
160 VIM::Window objects represent vim windows. | |
161 | |
162 Class Methods: | |
163 | |
164 current Returns the current window object. | |
165 count Returns the number of windows. | |
236 | 166 self[{n}] Returns the window object for the number {n}. The first number |
7 | 167 is 0. |
168 | |
169 Methods: | |
170 | |
171 buffer Returns the buffer displayed in the window. | |
172 height Returns the height of the window. | |
173 height = {n} Sets the window height to {n}. | |
502 | 174 width Returns the width of the window. |
175 width = {n} Sets the window width to {n}. | |
7 | 176 cursor Returns a [row, col] array for the cursor position. |
177 cursor = [{row}, {col}] | |
178 Sets the cursor position to {row} and {col}. | |
179 | |
180 ============================================================================== | |
557 | 181 5. Global variables *ruby-globals* |
7 | 182 |
183 There are two global variables. | |
184 | |
185 $curwin The current window object. | |
186 $curbuf The current buffer object. | |
187 | |
188 ============================================================================== | |
557 | 189 6. Dynamic loading *ruby-dynamic* |
190 | |
2625 | 191 On MS-Windows and Unix the Ruby library can be loaded dynamically. The |
192 |:version| output then includes |+ruby/dyn|. | |
557 | 193 |
2625 | 194 This means that Vim will search for the Ruby DLL file or shared library only |
195 when needed. When you don't use the Ruby interface you don't need it, thus | |
196 you can use Vim even though this library file is not on your system. | |

557 | 203 To use the Ruby interface the Ruby DLL must be in your search path. In a |
204 console window type "path" to see what directories are used. | |
205 | |
206 The name of the DLL must match the Ruby version Vim was compiled with. | |
