You should be able to do this without JavaScript by using streaming.

Playing with method_missing -- argument list

From: Tamara Temple <tamouse.lists@...>
Date: 2013-06-06 12:15:13 UTC
List: ruby-talk #408021
In https://gist.github.com/tamouse/5719507 , I've been playing around
with using Struct, Enumerable, Comparable and lastly method_missing, and
here's where I got stuck.

At lines 67-69 ("This is going to be fun"), I collect the instance
methods defined in each of Array, Hash, and String, to be able to pass
them along to each of the components of MyClass.

The problem now comes, how many arguments do I pass along as well?

My test example, #keys from Hash, shows my problem. #keys takes no
arguments, but even if the argument list is empty, it's an empty Array,
which of course is something. In some contexts this might be fine, but
in others, not so much.

So, is there a way to detect the number of arguments a method takes?

Or, would it be better to detect the size of args at that point and send
zero, one or many to the attribute's method? Thinking something like:

def check_size(args)
  case args.size
  when 0 ; nil
  when 1 ; args.first
  else args
end

(only maybe not so weak a method name)

AND, is this already a standard function/idiom?
