如何使用解析器gem来提取我想要的代码片段？

Question

我偶然发现了this Parser gem。

我想要做的是从长文件中提取特定方法。

一个例子是来自Rails的这个has_many方法：

 def has_many(name, scope = nil, options = {}, &extension)
    reflection = Builder::HasMany.build(self, name, scope, options, &extension)
    Reflection.add_reflection self, name, reflection
  end

唯一的问题是，我需要能够提取相同方法的另一个版本（从较早的时间开始），这更加冗长和复杂。那个版本看起来像这样：

def has_many(association_id, options = {})
    validate_options([ :foreign_key, :class_name, :exclusively_dependent, :dependent, :conditions, :order, :finder_sql ], options.keys)
    association_name, association_class_name, association_class_primary_key_name =
          associate_identification(association_id, options[:class_name], options[:foreign_key])

    require_association_class(association_class_name)

    if options[:dependent] and options[:exclusively_dependent]
      raise ArgumentError, ':dependent and :exclusively_dependent are mutually exclusive options.  You may specify one or the other.' # ' ruby-mode
    elsif options[:dependent]
      module_eval "before_destroy '#{association_name}.each { |o| o.destroy }'"
    elsif options[:exclusively_dependent]
      module_eval "before_destroy { |record| #{association_class_name}.delete_all(%(#{association_class_primary_key_name} = '\#{record.id}')) }"
    end

    define_method(association_name) do |*params|
      force_reload = params.first unless params.empty?
      association = instance_variable_get("@#{association_name}")
      if association.nil?
        association = HasManyAssociation.new(self,
          association_name, association_class_name,
          association_class_primary_key_name, options)
        instance_variable_set("@#{association_name}", association)
      end
      association.reload if force_reload
      association
    end

    # deprecated api
    deprecated_collection_count_method(association_name)
    deprecated_add_association_relation(association_name)
    deprecated_remove_association_relation(association_name)
    deprecated_has_collection_method(association_name)
    deprecated_find_in_collection_method(association_name)
    deprecated_find_all_in_collection_method(association_name)
    deprecated_create_method(association_name)
    deprecated_build_method(association_name)
  end

那么如何使用该gem成功提取这两种方法呢？

Gem的自述文件对于完成解析 - noob并不是非常友好。
