Instance Method Details

#assert_valid_keys(*valid_keys) ⇒ Object

Validate all keys in a hash match *valid_keys, raising ArgumentError on a mismatch. Note that keys are NOT treated indifferently, meaning if you use strings for keys but assert symbols as keys, this will fail.

{ name: 'Rob', years: '28' }.assert_valid_keys(:name, :age) # => raises "ArgumentError: Unknown key: years"
{ name: 'Rob', age: '28' }.assert_valid_keys('name', 'age') # => raises "ArgumentError: Unknown key: name"
{ name: 'Rob', age: '28' }.assert_valid_keys(:name, :age)   # => passes, raises nothing

    raise ArgumentError.new("Unknown key: #{k}") unless valid_keys.include?(k)
  end
end

#deep_stringify_keys ⇒ Object

Return a new hash with all keys converted to strings. This includes the keys from the root hash and from all nested hashes.

hash = { person: { name: 'Rob', age: '28' } }

hash.deep_stringify_keys
# => {"person"=>{"name"=>"Rob", "age"=>"28"}}

Destructively convert all keys to strings. This includes the keys from the root hash and from all nested hashes.

#deep_symbolize_keys ⇒ Object

Return a new hash with all keys converted to symbols, as long as they respond to to_sym. This includes the keys from the root hash and from all nested hashes.

hash = { 'person' => { 'name' => 'Rob', 'age' => '28' } }

hash.deep_symbolize_keys
# => {:person=>{:name=>"Rob", :age=>"28"}}

#deep_transform_keys(&block) ⇒ Object

Return a new hash with all keys converted by the block operation. This includes the keys from the root hash and from all nested hashes.

hash = { person: { name: 'Rob', age: '28' } }

hash.deep_transform_keys{ |key| key.to_s.upcase }
# => {"PERSON"=>{"NAME"=>"Rob", "AGE"=>"28"}}

  end
  result
end

#deep_transform_keys!(&block) ⇒ Object

Destructively convert all keys by using the block operation. This includes the keys from the root hash and from all nested hashes.

  end
  self
end

#except(*keys) ⇒ Object

Return a hash that includes everything but the given keys. This is useful for limiting a set of parameters to everything but a few known toggles:

@person.update(params[:person].except(:admin))

# File 'lib/ext/hash/except.rb', line 6

end

#extract!(*keys) ⇒ Object

Removes and returns the key/value pairs matching the given keys.

{ a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, d: 4 }.extract!(:a, :b) # => {:a=>1, :b=>2}
{ a: 1, b: 2 }.extract!(:a, :x)             # => {:a=>1}

  keys.each_with_object(self.class.new) { |key, result| result[key] = delete(key) if has_key?(key) }
end

#slice(*keys) ⇒ Object

Slice a hash to include only the given keys. This is useful for limiting an options hash to valid keys before passing to a method:

def search(criteria = {})
  criteria.assert_valid_keys(:mass, :velocity, :time)
end

search(options.slice(:mass, :velocity, :time))

If you have an array of keys you want to limit to, you should splat them:

valid_keys = [:mass, :velocity, :time]
search(options.slice(*valid_keys))

  keys.each_with_object(self.class.new) { |k, hash| hash[k] = self[k] if has_key?(k) }
end

#slice!(*keys) ⇒ Object

Replaces the hash with only the given keys. Returns a hash containing the removed key/value pairs.

{ a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, d: 4 }.slice!(:a, :b)
# => {:c=>3, :d=>4}
