Compiler/Line Number Metadata about opal-rspec

[wied03]

@elia - Sound interesting? I think it could start as a monkey patch but maybe the compiler could add a framework some day.

Does opal-rspec support latest opal master? If it does you can do it with a custom AST rewriter:

class RSpecMetadataRewriter < Opal::Rewriters::Base
  RSPEC_METHODS = %i(describe context it)

  def on_send(node)
    node = super

    recv, meth, *args = *node

    if RSPEC_METHODS.include?(meth)
      file = node.loc.expression.source_buffer.name
      line = node.loc.line
      column = node.loc.column

      loc_metadata = "#{file}:#{line}:#{column}"
      loc_metadata_pair = s(:pair, s(:sym, :loc), s(:str, loc_metadata))

      if args.last.type == :iter
        *args, iter = *args
      end

      if args.last.type == :hash
        *args, last_hash_arg = *args
      else
        last_hash_arg = s(:hash)
      end

      pairs = *last_hash_arg

      pairs += [loc_metadata_pair]
      last_hash_arg = last_hash_arg.updated(nil, pairs)


      args = [*args, last_hash_arg, iter].compact

      node.updated(nil, [recv, meth, *args])
    else
      node
    end
  end
end

Opal::Rewriter::LIST << RSpecMetadataRewriter

test.rb:

def describe(*args)
  puts "describe"
  puts args
  yield
end

def context(*args)
  puts "context"
  puts args
  yield
end

def it(*args)
  puts "it"
  puts args
end

describe 'MyClass1', type: :some_type do
  context 'when something happens' do
    it 'does the following'
  end
end

➜  opal git:(master) ✗ opal test.rb
describe
["MyClass1", {"type"=>"some_type", "loc"=>"test:18:0"}]
context
["when something happens", {"loc"=>"test:19:2"}]
it
["does the following", {"loc"=>"test:20:4"}]

➜  opal git:(master) ✗ opal ../opal/test.rb
describe
["MyClass1", {"type"=>"some_type", "loc"=>"../opal/test:18:0"}]
context
["when something happens", {"loc"=>"../opal/test:19:2"}]
it
["does the following", {"loc"=>"../opal/test:20:4"}]

It did but it's currently broken (Sprockets is the first reason).

I'm inclined to rely on source-maps for browser and possibly for node too.
