Should we support jobs with specific arguments? about sorbet-rails HOT 4 CLOSED

My question is: Should we support jobs with specific arguments, according to my definition of "specific" given above?

If the answer is no, that's fine, but then it seems job files will not be able to have a sigil higher than ignore.

I think if you re-run srb rbi hidden-definitions, it might remove the "non-specific" sig generated by sorbet.
Rerunning hidden-definitions task may be slow :P You can consider removing the sig manually.

Those are sorbet-specific behavior. For sorbet-rails, I think we can generate perform_later and perform_now class methods based on the manually written signature, much like how we generate delivery method for mailers. If you're interested in doing that, I can give you more direction on how to do it. It should be simple because sorbet-rails already has a library method that extracts sorbet signature from a method

I mean removing the sig from hidden-definitions.rbi file. It's just an auto-generated file of dynamic methods that sorbet detected in the codebase.

Aha! It does.

So, the lesson is: after I change a sigil from ignore to false (or greater) I should re-run hidden-definitions. That makes sense. When a file is ignored it is not required, thus anything defined in it is "hidden". Thanks, Harry.

I will make a PR to add this tip to the sigil page of the sorbet docs.

Sure, sounds like fun. I'll open a new issue to discuss.
