  • A few words on Ruby's type annotations state
    4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 5 May 2023
    I had written a code contracts library for Ruby about 10 years ago [1]. I stopped working on it, mainly because it only provided runtime type checking, and I wanted static type checking. Nowadays my main language is typescript. I miss ruby, but can't give up the static typing that typescript provides. I really wish Ruby had a type system with the same level of support. VSCode has phenomenal TS support, and there's a community adding types to projects [2]. This is something I'd like for Ruby also.

    I think a more defined process would mean a better future for Ruby and Ruby developers.

    Contracts gem can be a nice middle-ground. It has a fairly readably syntax and only checks method inputs and outputs at runtime. We use it to annotate important core methods, while leaving the rest type-free.

    I’ve never liked working with sorbet. But I’ve been interested in projects like contracts.ruby which feel more suited for ruby due to their lightness.

    This gives me access to input values as long as I defined them via attr_reader. Oh what's the Contract XXX above attr_reader? They are from contracts.ruby and completely optional and won't be explained in this post. You can safely ignore those and maybe study that gem later.
