Provides a template against which a string can be matched, particularly in RSpec
For longer strings it's not always possible or desirable to know the exact output of the string - you might know that every line in a file shoudld contain a price, but not what that price will be. This provides an RSpec matcher for that exact problem.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'matchdoc'
And then execute:
$ bundle
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install matchdoc
To specify a template construct a string (probably with a heredoc) with embedded Regex where you want dynamic content. If you are wanting to match a list of 3 product SKUs and prices, you might do this.
<<-LIST
product_sku, price
#{/[A-Z]{13}/}, #{/\$(\d)[1,2]\.\d\d}
#{/[A-Z]{13}/}, #{/\$(\d)[1,2]\.\d\d}
#{/[A-Z]{13}/}, #{/\$(\d)[1,2]\.\d\d}
