Subject: [ruby-core:92533] [Ruby trunk Bug#15819] cannot read document of File::NULL with "ri File::NULL"

Message-ID: <redmine.journal-77893.20190503090436.e633f3cc9cb4b283@ruby-lang.org> (raw)

Issue #15819 has been updated by shevegen (Robert A. Heiler).


> IHMO, it's too difficult to guess proper command.

Agree - File::NULL works in e. g. irb too and should work for ri. I found rdoc/ri
a bit cumbersome to use API-wise; in one project, that displays rdoc documentation
for methods (a bit similar as what pry does), I use code such as this:

    hash = RDoc::RI::Driver.process_args(arguments)
    rdoc_driver = RDoc::RI::Driver.new(hash)

To process stuff. if it were up to me I would try to enhance rdoc in general to be
more "friendly" (simpler) API-wise to use for downstream ruby users in general, but
I digress from your issue, sorry.
