Paolo extracted from his <a href="http://www.pragprog.com/titles/ppmetr/metaprogramming-ruby">Metaprogramming Ruby</a> book. If you've read the book and want a nice and short recap of some techniques, look no further. If you haven't read the book: What are you waiting for?</p>

It is based on the TextMate Theme by David Lee which i have been using for quite some time now. Though I like to try out new ones from time to time, I always fall back to argonaut.</p>

<p>For the sake of completeness I also put my vim port of the theme on
gitHub, find it <a href="https://github.com/effkay/argonaut.vim">here</a>.</p>

enable it. Some time ago however, I needed to enable a certain Feature
on a Sunday. I don't like the idea of having to work on a weekend,
especially not if it involves deploying. So I came up with a few lines
of code that would automatically enable the feature when the time is
right:</p>
<pre><code>[@language="ruby"]
[@caption="xample in ruby."]
def foobar
end
</code></pre>
<p><code>ruby
class Ruby
def dosomestuff
end
end
</code></p>
<pre><code class="language-ruby">
def foo
"asdf"
end
</code></pre>
<script src="https://gist.github.com/964965.js?file=feature_switch.rb"></script>
<p>Basically, you define the conditions for the Feature to be live inside
the Proc, and then use Feature.is_enabled? :key to build conditions into
the code.</p>
<p>Of course, this has come in handy for serveral other use cases, like
having a certain feature live on the dev server, but not on production.</p>
