- <A NAME="pm"><H2>The Tuscany Ruby Programming Model</H2></A>
- <P>This section will explain the Tuscany Ruby programming model to help you to
- write your own Ruby components and clients.
- </P>
- <P>The Tuscany Ruby component and client support comes from a Ruby extension
- library that is built in the &lt;tuscany_sca_install_dir&gt;/extensions/ruby/bin
- directory on Windows and &lt;tuscany_sca_install_dir&gt;/extensions/ruby/lib on
- Linux.
- </P>
- <A NAME="clients"><H3>Clients</H3></A>
- <P>Using the Ruby SCA extension library, a Ruby client can search for an SCA service with:
- </P>
-<PRE>require("libtuscany_sca_ruby")
-
-calculator = SCA::locateService("CalculatorComponent/CalculatorService")
-</PRE>
- <P>This finds the component and service as defined in the composite and componentType
- side files and returns a proxy object that can call the SCA service. You can then
- simply call a business method on "calculator", like this:
- </P>
-<PRE>result = calculator.add(12.3, 45.6)</PRE>
- </P>
- <A NAME="components"><H3>Components</H3></A>
- <P>Ruby component implementations are standard Ruby scripts, where class-level
- functions or module-level functions can be invoked by the Tuscany runtime. To
- use a Ruby component implementation, use the implementation.ruby element in
- your .composite file. For example:
- </P>
-<PRE>&lt;implementation.ruby script="CalculatorImpl.rb"/&gt;
-</PRE>
- <P>To instantiate a class instance and use a class-level function, the Ruby class must
- have a default constructor (an initialize() method that takes no arguments) and the
- class attribute must be definde in the implementation.ruby element
- in your composite, like so:
- </P>
-<PRE>&lt;implementation.ruby script="CalculatorImpl.rb" class="CalculatorImpl"/&gt;
-</PRE>
- <P>Tuscany currently supports passing simple types (strings, ints, floats, etc) as well
- as Service Data Objects into and out of Ruby components. Service Data Objects are represented
- in Ruby as REXML Document objects (see the <A HREF="../samples/RubyBank/README.html">RubyBank
- sample</A> for a demonstration).
- </P>
- <P>You can write a componentType file for your Ruby component, but you don't have to - the Ruby
- extension introspects Ruby component implementation classes for you and binds public
- attributes to references and properties.
- </P>
- <A NAME="references"><H3>References</H3></A>
- <P>References can be invoked from Ruby component implementations by the use of public
- attributes in the component implementation classes, like this:
- </P>
-<PRE>class CalculatorImpl
-
- # Define the public attribute that corresponds to the divideService reference
- attr_writer :divideService
-
-...
-
- def div(arg1, arg2)
- print "Ruby - CalculatorImpl.div\n"
- # Invoke the divideService reference
- @divideService.divide(arg1.to_f, arg2.to_f)
- end
-
-...
-end
-</PRE>
- <P>and in your composite file:
- </P>
-<PRE>&lt;component name="CalculatorComponent"&gt;
- &lt;implementation.ruby script="CalculatorImpl.rb"/&gt;
- &lt;reference name="divideService"&gt;DivideComponent/DivideService&lt;/reference&gt;
-&lt;/component&gt;
-</PRE>
- <A NAME="properties"><H3>Properties</H3></A>
- <P>A composite with a property defined for a component like so:
- </P>
-<PRE>&lt;component name="DivideComponent"&gt;
- &lt;implementation.ruby script="DivideImpl.rb" class="DivideImpl"/&gt;
- &lt;property name="round"&gt;true&lt;/property&gt;
-&lt;/component&gt;
-</PRE>
- <P>allows a public attribute of a Ruby component implementation class to be
- assigned the property value, so it can be used like so:
- </P>
-<PRE>class DivideImpl
-
- # Define the public attribute that corresponds to the round property
- attr_writer :round
-
-...
-
- def divide(arg1, arg2)
- print "Ruby - DivideImpl.divide ", arg1, " / ", arg2, "\n"
- res = arg1.to_f / arg2.to_f
- # Use the round property
- if @round then
- res = res.round
- print "DivideImpl.divide rounding\n"
- end
- print "DivideImpl.divide ", res, "\n"
- res
- end
-end
-</PRE>
