"Are you a nihilist? Do you believe in nothing? Say what you want about the tenets of national socialism, at least it's an ethos." - Walter Sobchak

Nihil is a gem that provides a simple way to get more nil in your life.

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

bundle add nihil

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

gem install nihil

Nihil.new(1231).bloop # => nil

Nihil.aasdlkfjsadf(:foo) # => nil

Nihil.cookie do |x|
  x + 1
end # => nil

Sadly, you can't chain nils. Something like this: Nihil.bloop.blonk.bliff will raise a NoMethodError.

Or will it? That's where insane mode comes in!

Nihil.insane_mode!

Nihil.bloop.blonk.bliff # => nil

nil.bloof.blonk! # => nil

Nihil.simmer_down!

Nihil.bloop.blonk.bliff # => NoMethodError

I don't think you should run insane mode. But that's up to you really.

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake test to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
