deconstruct ()

def deconstruct: () -> Array[nil | Node]

Alias for: child_nodes
deconstruct_keys (keys)
Source

    # File lib/prism/node.rb, line 2644
    def deconstruct_keys(keys)

full_message_loc ()
Source

    # File lib/prism/node_ext.rb, line 331
    def full_message_loc
      attribute_write? ? message_loc&.adjoin("=") : message_loc
    end

When a call node has the attribute_write flag set, it means that the call is using the attribute write syntax. This is either a method call to []= or a method call to a method that ends with =. Either way, the = sign is present in the source.

`Prism` returns the `message_loc` without the = sign attached, because there can be any amount of space between the message and the = sign. However, sometimes you want the location of the full message including the inner space and the = sign. This method provides that.
