Namespace is evaluated twice

Open sashazykov opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

I put the following code into my namespace definition:

puts caller
puts '~~~~'

and it is executed twice, I see two backtraces. Is this normal? The file itself is loaded only once.

  1. it is evaluated in /opt/reports_data/app/controllers/data.rb:37 when the controller code is loaded.
  2. also evaluated in /opt/reports_data/app/controllers/api.rb:29 when the controller is mounted with mount Controllers::Data

@alexandrz I agree it looks weird :disappointed:

require 'grape'

class AddressAPI < Grape::API
  params do
    requires :test, type: String

    puts 'Address API'
  end
  post '/address' do
  end
end

class API < Grape::API
  version 'v1', using: :path

  mount AddressAPI
end

Address API will be printed 2 times. The reason is here where every method call gets added to the setup variable. Considering AddressAPI, the setup variable will contain, params and post:

[
  {method: 'params', args: args, block: block},
  {method: 'get', args: args, block: block}
]

Then when AddressAPI gets mounted all method calls stored in the setup variable gets replayed on API there.

There is a memory leak issue related to this approach.

You might consider a native Ruby include method instead, more info there https://nesteryuk.info/2020/04/12/grape-include-is-still-better-for-code-splitting.html. It is cheaper, our project uses this approach for 6 years without any issues.
