class Prism::ConstantPathNode - Documentation for Ruby 3.4
Description: class Prism::ConstantPathNode: operators.
Keywords: ruby,class,Prism::ConstantPathNode

# class Prism::ConstantPathNode

Represents accessing a constant through a path of `::` operators.

    Foo::Bar
    ^^^^^^^^

### Attributes

name [R]

The name of the constant being accessed. This could be `nil` in the event of a syntax error.

parent [R]

The left-hand node of the path, if present. It can be `nil` or any non-void expression. It will be `nil` when the constant lookup is at the root of the module tree.

    Foo::Bar
    ^^^

    self::Test
    ^^^^

    a.b::C
    ^^^

### Public Class Methods

new (source, node_id, location, flags, parent, name, delimiter_loc, name_loc)
Source

    # File lib/prism/node.rb, line 5075
    def initialize(source, node_id, location, flags, parent, name, delimiter_loc, name_loc)
      @source = source
      @node_id = node_id
      @location = location
      @flags = flags
      @parent = parent
      @name = name
      @delimiter_loc = delimiter_loc
      @name_loc = name_loc
    end

Initialize a new `ConstantPathNode` node.

type ()
Source

    # File lib/prism/node.rb, line 5190
    def self.type
      :constant_path_node
    end

Return a symbol representation of this node type. See `Node::type`.

### Public Instance Methods

=== (other)
Source

    # File lib/prism/node.rb, line 5196
    def ===(other)
      other.is_a?(ConstantPathNode) &&
        (parent === other.parent) &&
        (name === other.name) &&
        (delimiter_loc.nil? == other.delimiter_loc.nil?) &&
        (name_loc.nil? == other.name_loc.nil?)
    end

Implements case-equality for the node. This is effectively == but without comparing the value of locations. Locations are checked only for presence.

accept (visitor)
Source

    # File lib/prism/node.rb, line 5087
    def accept(visitor)
      visitor.visit_constant_path_node(self)
    end

def accept: (`Visitor` visitor) -> void

child ()
Source

    # File lib/prism/node_ext.rb, line 205
    def child
      deprecated("name", "name_loc")

      if name
        ConstantReadNode.new(source, -1, name_loc, 0, name)
      else
        MissingNode.new(source, -1, location, 0)
      end
    end

Previously, we had a child node on this class that contained either a constant read or a missing node. To not cause a breaking change, we continue to supply that API.
