[ruby] Get list of a class' instance methods

I have a class:

class TestClass
  def method1
  end

  def method2
  end

  def method3
  end
end

How can I get a list of my methods in this class (method1, method2, method3)?

According to Ruby Doc instance_methods

Returns an array containing the names of the public and protected instance methods in the receiver. For a module, these are the public and protected methods; for a class, they are the instance (not singleton) methods. If the optional parameter is false, the methods of any ancestors are not included. I am taking the official documentation example.

module A
  def method1()  
    puts "method1 say hi"
  end
end
class B
  include A #mixin
  def method2()  
     puts "method2 say hi"
  end
end
class C < B #inheritance
  def method3() 
     puts "method3 say hi"
  end
end

Let's see the output.

A.instance_methods(false)
  => [:method1]

A.instance_methods
  => [:method1]
B.instance_methods
 => [:method2, :method1, :nil?, :===, ...# ] # methods inherited from parent class, most important :method1 is also visible because we mix module A in class B

B.instance_methods(false)
  => [:method2]
C.instance_methods
  => [:method3, :method2, :method1, :nil?, :===, ...#] # same as above
C.instance_methods(false)
 => [:method3]

TestClass.methods(false) 

to get only methods that belong to that class only.

TestClass.instance_methods(false) would return the methods from your given example (since they are instance methods of TestClass).

You can get a more detailed list (e.g. structured by defining class) with gems like debugging or looksee.

TestClass.instance_methods

or without all the inherited methods

TestClass.instance_methods - Object.methods

(Was 'TestClass.methods - Object.methods')

To get only own methods, and exclude inherited ones:

From within the instance:

self.methods - self.class.superclass.instance_methods

From outside:

TestClass.instance_methods - TestClass.superclass.instance_methods

Add it to the class:

class TestClass
  class << self
    def own_methods
      self.instance_methods - self.superclass.instance_methods
    end
  end
end

TestClass.own_methods
=> [:method1, :method2, :method3]

(with ruby 2.6.x)

$ irb --simple-prompt

class TestClass
  def method1
  end

  def method2
  end

  def method3
  end
end

tc_list = TestClass.instance_methods(false)
#[:method1, :method2, :method3]
puts tc_list
#method1
#method2
#method3
