Gem Version Build Status

The value parsing tool to return a boolean that you never knew you needed!

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'trybool'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install trybool

Usage

Tried to make this as straight forward a tool as possible.

Trybool.parse("1")
=> true
Trybool.parse("off")
=> false

You can even configure it for additional values you may want.

A once falsey value:

Trybool.parse("applesauce")
=> false

With a little configuration:

Trybool.configure do |config|
  config << "applesauce"
end

Is now known as the truth!

Trybool.parse("applesauce")
=> true

Just remember a Boolean only has two states, so we only define 'truthy' values. Now we can make a powerful assumption that if it's not the truth... it's false.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
