🔍 Dynamic Constant Resolution with const_missing
​
Override const_missing
to handle missing constants at runtime—ideal for on-the-fly proxy classes or multi-tenant namespaces. Be cautious: always call super
for truly missing constants to preserve expected NameError
behavior.
module ServiceFactory
def self.const_missing(name)
klass = Class.new do
define_method(:call) { |*args| puts "Calling #{name} with \\u{2026}" }
end
const_set(name, klass)
end
end
ServiceFactory::EmailService.new.call('hi')
This pattern auto-defines service objects under a common module.
