[Feature Request] Option to skip type checking in certain cases about dry-initializer HOT 3 CLOSED

The only way I was able to get this working for our system at present is to construct something like this:

type_check = Rails.env.test? ? Types.Instance(Object) : Types.Instance(Foo)
option :arg, type: type_check

Which, while functional, is not really ideal.

@CodingAnarchy Hi!

I don't think we should add this settings directly into dry-initializer just because this seems like an edge case on far edge. This is a "bad news"

But there's a good news too :)
Option definition is actually extensible via dispatchers. This means you can insert your own setting to option and param.

I would recommend you to read the dispatchers class with its sublcasses to look at how exactly they are implemented. Then you should possibly read dry-initializer-rails as an example of adding new setting.

from dry-initializer.

I think you need a dispatcher like this:

# Define a dispatcher
dispatcher = lambda do |ignore_type: nil, **options|
  ignore_type&.call ? options.reject { |k| k == :type } : options
end

# Then register a dispatcher
Dry::Initializer::Dispatchers << dispatcher

You can either do this in your application or define a gem extending dry-initalizer just like dry-initialize-rails does
