How to run module from Ruby script

[fplazaonate]

Describe the bug

Hi,
I would like to initialize Environment Modules from a ruby script.
I have tried to import the file "/usr/share/modules/init/ruby.rb".
After that, I can't call the module function because it is a reserved keyword in ruby.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1 - Create a test.rb script with the following content

# Load the Environment Modules system into Ruby
require '/usr/share/modules/init/ruby.rb'

# Example usage: Load a module
module('load python')

2 - Execute the script

$ruby test.rb
test.rb:5: syntax error, unexpected '\n', expecting '.' or &. or :: or '['
module('load python')

Hello Florian,

As you say, module is a specific keyword in Ruby. So module is defined for this language as a module method from the ENVModule class.

Some usage example:

require '/usr/share/Modules/init/ruby.rb'
ENVModule.module('list')
ENVModule.module('load', '-v', 'dot')
ENVModule.module('list')

Output of this script

$ ruby test.rb
No Modulefiles Currently Loaded.
Loading dot
Currently Loaded Modulefiles:
 1) dot

I will update the documentation to provide this example.
