Does Crystal have attribute accessor methods like in Ruby?

Does the Crystal programming language have an equivalent to Ruby's attribute accessor methods? More specifically, does Crystal have equivalents to the following?

?

Solution

  • Yes, they're defined as macro.

    Basically:

    ruby crystal
    attr_accessor property
    attr_reader getter
    attr_writer setter

    Example

    class Person
  property name
end

    is equal to

    class Person
  def name=(@name)
  end

  def name
    @name
  end
end
