Ruby: Allowing a module to have settings
- by JP
If I'm building a library in ruby, what's the best way to allow users of the library to set module-wide settings that will be available to all sub classes etc of the library?
A good example would be if I'm writing a library for posting to a webservice:
TheService::File.upload("myfile.txt") # Uploads anonymously
TheService::Settings.login("myuser","mypass") # Or any other similar way of doing this
TheService::File.upload("myfile.txt") # Uploads as 'myuser'
The idea would be that unless TheService::Settings.logout is called then all TheService operations would be conducted under myuser's account.
Any ideas?
