MethodMissing

Switched to Elixir and missed method_missing functionality in other languages?

This package is for you! It implements method_missing which you can bring into any other module!

Usage

defmodule Dog do
  use MethodMissing

  def method_missing(func, _args) do
    func_name = Atom.to_string(func)

    cond do
      Regex.match?(~r/bark|woof/, func_name) -> "WOOF"
      true -> "?"
    end
  end
end

Dog.bark()
> "WOOF"
Dog.woof()
> "WOOF"
Dog.meow()
> "?"

Why?
