Feature #7378: Adding Pathname#write

• Status: Closed
• Assignee: akr (Akira Tanaka)
• Target version: 2.6

[aef (Alexander E. Fischer)]

There should be a variant of File.write for Pathname.

I will provide a patch if this is acceptable.

(Please see my other Pathname related tickets too: #7360 #7361 #7362 #7363 )

Hello,

Your feature requests sound very logical to me, and I actually made a path manipulation library called "Path" [1]
Notably, #write, #glob and #touch are already implemented as you propose and #start_with? functionality is implemented by #inside?.

I would love to see @akr's opinion on this and to have a path manipulation class in core with these additions and others which are present in Path and other libraries.

I've written almost exactly this code myself in the past, even down to
the Path constant :-) I'd love to see this promoted to stdlib.

I definitely also have written Pathname#write, and used it. Please provide a patch, that should help getting it included.
