Kabali

Kabali is a gem to visualize ruby YARV structures, and traverse through them step by step tracing the state of the stack at each step.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'kabali'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install kabali

Usage

First require the package.

require 'kabali'

Take a piece of code you want to disassemble. code = <<END puts 1+1 END

Create the object, calling the constructor would compile it down to the object code.

   k = Kabali::Kabali.new(code)

Traverse through the object code using the traverse method.

 k.traverse

You will have to press enter at every step, to go to the next line of execution.

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.

You can find the classes in the file lib/kabali.rb. Add more methods to the resolve method, if you want.
