IRB's Built-In Measure (2021)

• faitswulff 4y ago
  Can someone add [2021] to this title?

  This is amazing! I work with ruby in my day job (unsurprisingly, Rails), and had no idea about existence of measure, though admittedly most of our codebases run Ruby versions older than 3.

    Me too but embedded (yip, ruby embedded). Love this!!

    Yeah, this was news to me too. It looks very handy. Friendly PSA: Support (security patches) for ruby < 3.0 ended this month.

    Starting in ruby 2.6, irb is a gem bundled with ruby, so you can upgrade to the latest version in older rubies: https://github.com/ruby/irb#installation https://github.com/ruby/irb#installation

  Nice, had no idea. Does this also work with pry? Or is there a plugin or something? Edit: Just googled. Didn't find anything about pry, but I found https://st0012.dev/whats-new-in-ruby-3-2-irb https://st0012.dev/whats-new-in-ruby-3-2-irb
