#rekey(key_map = nil, &block) ⇒ Object

Borrowed from github.com/rubyworks/facets

Rekey a hash:

rekey()
rekey(from_key => to_key, ...)
rekey{|from_key| to_key}
rekey{|from_key, value| to_key}

If a key map is given, then the first key is changed to the second key.

foo = { :a=>1, :b=>2 }
foo.rekey(:a=>'a')       #=> { 'a'=>1, :b=>2 }
foo.rekey(:b=>:x)        #=> { :a =>1, :x=>2 }
foo.rekey('foo'=>'bar')  #=> { :a =>1, :b=>2 }

If a block is given, converts all keys in the Hash accroding to the given block procedure.

foo = { :name=>'Gavin', :wife=>:Lisa }
foo.rekey{ |k| k.to_s }  #=>  { "name"=>"Gavin", "wife"=>:Lisa }
foo                      #=>  { :name =>"Gavin", :wife=>:Lisa }

If no key map or block is given, then all keys are converted to Symbols.

Raises an ArgumentError if both a key_map and a block are given. If both are needed just call #rekey twice.

TODO: If ‘nil` is returned by block should the key be set to `nil` or the orignal key?

#rekey!(key_map = nil, &block) ⇒ Object

Synonym for Hash#rekey, but modifies the receiver in place (and returns it).

foo = { :name=>'Gavin', :wife=>:Lisa }
foo.rekey!{ |k| k.to_s }  #=>  { "name"=>"Gavin", "wife"=>:Lisa }
foo                       #=>  { "name"=>"Gavin", "wife"=>:Lisa }
