Amazing Print

Rails ActiveRecord objects and usage within Rails templates are supported via included mixins.

IRB integration
To use amazing_print as default formatter in irb and Rails console add the following code to your ~/.irbrc file:
require "amazing_print"
AmazingPrint.irb!
PRY integration
If you miss amazing_print's way of formatting output, here's how you can use it in place of the formatting which comes with pry. Add the following code to your ~/.pryrc:
require "amazing_print"
AmazingPrint.pry!
Logger Convenience Method
amazing_print adds the 'ap' method to the Logger and ActiveSupport::BufferedLogger classes letting you call:
logger.ap object
By default, this logs at the :debug level. You can override that globally with:
:log_level => :info
in the custom defaults (see below). You can also override on a per call basis with:
logger.ap object, :warn
# or
logger.ap object, level: :warn
You can also pass additional options (providing nil or leaving off level will log at the default level):
logger.ap object, { level: :info, sort_keys: true }
ActionView Convenience Method
amazing_print adds the 'ap' method to the ActionView::Base class making it available within Rails templates. For example:
<%= ap @accounts.first %> # ERB
!= ap @accounts.first # HAML
With other web frameworks (ex: in Sinatra templates) you can explicitly request HTML formatting:
<%= ap @accounts.first, :html => true %>
Colorizing Strings
Use methods such as .red to set string color:
irb> puts AmazingPrint::Colors.red("red text")
red text # (it's red)
Setting Custom Defaults
You can set your own default options by creating aprc file in your $XDG_CONFIG_HOME
directory (defaults to ~/.config if undefined). Within that file assign your defaults
to AmazingPrint.defaults.
For example:
# ~/.config/aprc file.
AmazingPrint.defaults = {
:indent => -2,
:color => {
:hash => :whiteish,
:class => :white
}
}
The previous ~/.aprc location is still supported as fallback.
Versioning
AmazingPrint follows the Semantic Versioning standard.
