Subject: [ruby-core:89488] [Ruby trunk Feature#15236] add support for hash shorthand
Date: Sat, 20 Oct 2018 02:23:22 +0000 (UTC)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <redmine.journal-74529.20181020022321.5aaa78865058971d@ruby-lang.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: redmine.issue-15236.20181019103301@ruby-lang.org

Issue #15236 has been updated by matz (Yukihiro Matsumoto).


As a conservative old timer who does not use JavaScript at all, I still feel negative. It seems to work best with destructuring (left-hand side of assignments) which is nearly impossible in current Ruby syntax.

But at the same time, I admit many of Ruby users use Rails and JavaScript, so I am open to hearing your opinion.

Matz.

Feature #15236: add support for hash shorthand
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/15236#change-74529

inspired by javascript support for object literal shorthand notation `{ a }`, which will be expanded into `{ a: a }`..

to avoid ambiguity, this shorthand is only supported when hash is defined with `{ }` notation.. in other situation where the brackets is optional, e.g. function call, we still need to write it in full (`m(a : a)` instead of `m(a)`, or `m(a, b, c: c)` instead of `m(a, b, c)`..
