== DESCRIPTION:
Embed the Mozilla Rhino Javascript interpreter into Ruby
== FEATURES/PROBLEMS:
* Evaluate Javascript from with in Ruby
* Embed your Ruby objects into the Javascript world
== SYNOPSIS:
1. Javascript goes into Ruby
1. Ruby Objects goes into Javascript
1. Our shark's in the Javascript!
require 'rhino'
# evaluate some simple javascript
eval_js "7 * 6" #=> 42
# evaluate bytes read from any File/IO object:
File.open("mysource.js") do |file|
eval_js file, "mysource.js"
#or in the context of a controlled scope
Rhino::Context.open do |context|
context['foo'] = 'some global variable referenced in mysource.js'
context.eval(file, "mysource.js")
end
# evaluate a ruby function from javascript
Rhino::Context.open do |context|
context["say"] = lambda {|word, times| word * times}
context.eval("say("Hello", 3)") #=> HelloHelloHello
end
# embed a ruby object into your javascript environment
class MyMath
def plus(lhs, rhs)
lhs + rhs
end
end
Rhino::Context.open do |context|
context["math"] = MyMath.new
context.eval("math.plus(20,22)") #=> 42
end
# make a ruby object *be* your javascript environment
math = MyMath.new
Rhino::Context.open(:with => math) do |context|
context.eval("plus(20,22)") #=> 42
end
#or the equivalent
math.eval_js("plus(20,22)")
# Configure your embedding setup
# Make your standard objects (Object, String, etc...) immutable
Rhino::Context.open(:sealed => true) do |context|
context.eval("Object.prototype.toString = function() {}") # this is an error!
end
#Turn on Java integration from javascript (probably a bad idea)
Rhino::Context.open(:java => true) do |context|
context.eval("java.lang.System.exit()") #it's dangerous!
end
