How do I add a custom method to a Ruby library? -

-

i'm using restforce library salesforce queries. queries, following:

client = restforce.new :username => 'user', :password => 'pass', :security_token => 'token', :client_id => 'client_id', :client_secret => 'client_secret'

and call client.query query salesforce.

i want create custom method called query_with_alises can call client.query_with_aliases custom functionality.

how without editing source code of library itself?

you can open class again , add method want.

though exact meaning matter of debate, called monkey-patching. consider monkey-patching overriding/redefining existing methods (which can kinda dangerous), other consider kind of opening existing classes , adding anything, if new methods.

in specific case, can monkey-patch client class restforce that:

class restforce::data::client   def query_with_aliases      # put code here    end     end

every other method inside client keep existing , functioning , add query_with_aliases.

when save object, got below error must non-abstract type public parameterless constructor in order use parameter 't' in generic type or method 'servicestack.redis.redisclient.store<t>(t) redisclass.getinstnace().store(msg); // error here redisclass.getinstnace().save(); as third party's class, can not edit how save object? could create wrapper around third party object call constructor, store wrapper? e.g. public class mywrapper { public thirdpartyobject thirdpartyinstance { get; set; } public mywrapper() { thirdpartyinstance = new thirdpartyobject("constructors"); } }

time series - R growth rate calculation week over week on daily timeseries data -

-
i'm trying calculate w/w growth rates entirely in r. use excel, or preprocess ruby, that's not point. data.frame example date gpv type 1 2013-04-01 12900 office 2 2013-04-02 16232 office 3 2013-04-03 10035 office i want factored 'type' , need wrap date type column weeks. , calculate week on week growth. i think need ddply group week - custom function determines if date in given week or not? then, after that, use diff , find growth b/w weeks divided previous week. then i'll plot week/week growths, or use data.frame export it. this closed had same useful ideas. update: answer ggplot: all same below, use instead of plot ggplot(data.frame(week=seq(length(gr)), gr), aes(x=week,y=gr*100)) + geom_point() + geom_smooth(method='loess') + coord_cartesian(xlim = c(.95, 10.05)) + scale_x_discrete() + ggtitle('week on week growth rate, apr 1') + ylab('growth rate %') (old, correct answer using plot) w...
