ClassMagic

Bastion's ClassMagic module is mainly a helper function which abstracts away Lua meta programming complexity to enable developers to access various Bastion module methods as "getter variables" instead. For example, if a developer wants to get a Unit's name they can do so by typing Unit:GetName() or Unit.name
local ClassMagic = {}
ClassMagic.__index = ClassMagic
function ClassMagic:Resolve(Class, key)
if Class[key] or Class[key] == false then
return Class[key]
end
if Class['Get' .. key:sub(1, 1):upper() .. key:sub(2)] then
local func = Class['Get' .. key:sub(1, 1):upper() .. key:sub(2)]
-- Call the function and return the result if there's more than one return value return it as a table
local result = { func(self) }
if #result > 1 then
return result
end
return result[1]
end
if Class['Get' .. key:upper()] then
local func = Class['Get' .. key:upper()]
-- Call the function and return the result if there's more than one return value return it as a table
local result = { func(self) }
if #result > 1 then
return result
end
return result[1]
end
if Class['Is' .. key:upper()] then
local func = Class['Is' .. key:upper()]
-- Call the function and return the result if there's more than one return value return it as a table
local result = { func(self) }
if #result > 1 then
return result
end
return result[1]
end
return Class[key]
end
return ClassMagic
