Easy tracing for debugging. Handy methods for adding trace lines to output or Rails logs.

loba's Issues

Refactor module organization

Current module technique may not be appropriate. Perhaps self.ts instead of Loba::ts? Research best practices around modules.

Improve README docs

Upgrade output to use Ruby logger

instead of just puts. Might allow more consistent use in non-Rails apps that use the logger too. Since this is not expected to be used in production, integration with app's standard logging is probably overkill.

• might be simple to change out puts, though the lambda will need to be parallel with the Rails logger use
• Rails use can probably stay as is

simple CLI commands for code mgmt

• loba check quick grep of loba commands in source code base (helpful for seeing if left in)
• loba clear quick removal of loba commands in source code base (just wipe all diagnostics out when done)

These will affect how environment notes are written...

Release as 0.2.0 on RubyGems

Once satisfied of readiness, release gem on RubyGems for public use.

Test ticket from Code Climate

Improve performance of Loba.val

Running ruby-prof shows that binding.of_caller is relatively expensive (though performance isn't overall that bad).

Could perhaps amend Loba::Internal::Value.phrases to pass a common binding.of_caller object to calls in Loba::Internal::Value::ValueHelper which may reduce some of the overhead in initializing its objects. Overall, this could cut the time in Loba.val perhaps by 50%, though could perhaps make the code a bit more complicated to follow.

Test with standalone non-Rails ruby project

• verify that Rails gem is not installed and is not needed

Add production environment production to `Loba::val`

Shouldn't it be able to work the same as Loba::ts?

Improve test coverage

Support `Loba::hide` and `Loba::show` calls

to temporarily disable logged notices.

Fix "Rubocop/Lint/StringConversionInInterpolation" issue in lib/loba.rb

Redundant use of Object#to_s in interpolation.

Check performance under Rails and standalone Ruby

How much drag does Loba::ts and Loba::val introduce? Especially important if left in production code but could skew ts results if a large percentage of diff is overhead.

Support :timestamp as an alias for :ts

There's a syntax challenge when the method name is namespaced?

Verify README example snippet behavior works as documented

There is a sample snippet in the main readme that uses a plain ol' Ruby class. Make sure everything works as advertised.
