# RDoc::Parser::ChangeLog

A ChangeLog file parser.

This parser converts a ChangeLog into an RDoc::Markup::Document. When viewed as HTML a ChangeLog page will have an entry for each day's entries in the sidebar table of contents.

This parser is meant to parse the MRI ChangeLog, but can be used to parse any GNU style Change Log.

### Public Instance Methods

continue_entry_body(entry_body, continuation) click to toggle source

Attaches the `continuation` of the previous line to the `entry_body`.

Continued function listings are joined together as a single entry. Continued descriptions are joined to make a single paragraph.

    # File lib/rdoc/parser/changelog.rb, line 26
    def continue_entry_body entry_body, continuation
      return unless last = entry_body.last

      if last =~ /\)\s*\z/ and continuation =~ /\A\(/ then
        last.sub!(/\)\s*\z/, ',')
        continuation.sub!(/\A\(/, '')
      end

      if last =~ /\s\z/ then
        last << continuation
      else
        last << ' ' << continuation
      end
    end

create_document(groups) click to toggle source

Creates an RDoc::Markup::Document given the `groups` of ChangeLog entries.

    # File lib/rdoc/parser/changelog.rb, line 44
    def create_document groups
      doc = RDoc::Markup::Document.new
      doc.omit_headings_below = 2
      doc.file = @top_level

      doc << RDoc::Markup::Heading.new(1, File.basename(@file_name))
      doc << RDoc::Markup::BlankLine.new

      groups.sort_by do |day,| day end.reverse_each do |day, entries|
        doc << RDoc::Markup::Heading.new(2, day.dup)
        doc << RDoc::Markup::BlankLine.new

        doc.concat create_entries entries
      end

      doc
    end

create_entries(entries) click to toggle source

Returns a list of ChangeLog entries an RDoc::Markup nodes for the given `entries`.

    # File lib/rdoc/parser/changelog.rb, line 66
    def create_entries entries
      out = []

      entries.each do |entry, items|
        out << RDoc::Markup::Heading.new(3, entry)
        out << RDoc::Markup::BlankLine.new

        out << create_items(items)
      end

      out
    end

create_items(items) click to toggle source

Returns an RDoc::Markup::List containing the given `items` in the ChangeLog

    # File lib/rdoc/parser/changelog.rb, line 83
    def create_items items
      list = RDoc::Markup::List.new :NOTE

      items.each do |item|
        item =~ /\A(.*?(?:\([^)]+\))?):\s*/

        title = $1
        body = $'

        paragraph = RDoc::Markup::Paragraph.new body
        list_item = RDoc::Markup::ListItem.new title, paragraph
        list << list_item
      end

      list
    end

group_entries(entries) click to toggle source

Groups `entries` by date.

    # File lib/rdoc/parser/changelog.rb, line 103
    def group_entries entries
      entries.group_by do |title, _|
        begin
          Time.parse(title).strftime '%Y-%m-%d'
        rescue NoMethodError, ArgumentError
          time, = title.split '  ', 2
          Time.parse(time).strftime '%Y-%m-%d'
        end
      end
    end

parse_entries() click to toggle source

Parses the entries in the ChangeLog.

Returns an Array of each ChangeLog entry in order of parsing.

A ChangeLog entry is an Array containing the ChangeLog title (date and committer) and an Array of ChangeLog items (file and function changed with description).

An example result would be:

    [ 'Tue Dec  4 08:33:46 2012  Eric Hodel  <drbrain@segment7.net>',
      [ 'README.EXT:  Converted to RDoc format',
        'README.EXT.ja:  ditto']]

    # File lib/rdoc/parser/changelog.rb, line 129
    def parse_entries
      entries = []
      entry_name = nil
      entry_body = []

      @content.each_line do |line|
        case line
        when /^\s*$/ then
          next
        when /^\w.*/ then
          entries << [entry_name, entry_body] if entry_name

          entry_name = $&

          begin
            time = Time.parse entry_name
            # HACK Ruby 1.8 does not raise ArgumentError for Time.parse "Other"
            entry_name = nil unless entry_name =~ /#{time.year}/
          rescue NoMethodError
            # HACK Ruby 2.1.2 and earlier raises NoMethodError if time part is absent
            entry_name.split '  ', 2
          rescue ArgumentError
            if /out of range/ =~ $!.message
              Time.parse(entry_name.split('  ', 2)[0]) rescue entry_name = nil
            else
              entry_name = nil
            end
          end

          entry_body = []
        when /^(\t| {8})?\*\s*(.*)/ then # "\t* file.c (func): ..."
          entry_body << $2
        when /^(\t| {8})?\s*(\(.*)/ then # "\t(func): ..."
          entry = $2

          if entry_body.last =~ /:/ then
            entry_body << entry
          else
            continue_entry_body entry_body, entry
          end
        when /^(\t| {8})?\s*(.*)/ then
          continue_entry_body entry_body, $2
        end
      end

      entries << [entry_name, entry_body] if entry_name

      entries.reject! do |(entry,_)|
        entry == nil
      end

      entries
    end

scan() click to toggle source

Converts the ChangeLog into an RDoc::Markup::Document

    # File lib/rdoc/parser/changelog.rb, line 186
    def scan
      entries = parse_entries
      grouped_entries = group_entries entries

      doc = create_document grouped_entries

      @top_level.comment = doc

      @top_level
    end
