Dry-transaction: Better error for a missing step

fenec · October 12, 2017, 4:33pm

If I don’t describe a step, I get: NameError: undefined method call for class NilClass

because method(:call) in #arity is called on nil:

dry-rb/dry-transaction/blob/v0.10.2/lib/dry/transaction/step.rb#L59


      result.fmap { |value|
        broadcast :"#{step_name}_success", value
        value
      }.or { |value|
        broadcast :"#{step_name}_failure", *args, value
        Left(StepFailure.new(self, value))
      }
    end


    def arity
      operation.is_a?(Proc) ? operation.arity : operation.method(:call).arity
    end
  end
end
end

I think, would be better to raise a more descriptive error in this case.

@fenec what do you mean when you do “not describe a step”.

Is missing from the container or no method is defined in the class?

method is not defined in the class
