class OpenStruct
Public Class Methods
Creates a new OpenStruct
object. By default, the resulting OpenStruct
object will have no attributes.
The optional hash
, if given, will generate attributes and values (can be a Hash
, an OpenStruct
or a Struct
). For example:
require "ostruct" hash = { "country" => "Australia", :capital => "Canberra" } data = OpenStruct.new(hash) data # => #<OpenStruct country="Australia", capital="Canberra">
# File lib/ostruct.rb, line 94 def initialize(hash=nil) @table = {} if hash hash.each_pair do |k, v| k = k.to_sym @table[k] = v end end end
Public Instance Methods
Compares this object and other
for equality. An OpenStruct
is equal to other
when other
is an OpenStruct
and the two objects' Hash
tables are equal.
require "ostruct" first_pet = OpenStruct.new("name" => "Rowdy") second_pet = OpenStruct.new(:name => "Rowdy") third_pet = OpenStruct.new("name" => "Rowdy", :age => nil) first_pet == second_pet # => true first_pet == third_pet # => false
# File lib/ostruct.rb, line 356 def ==(other) return false unless other.kind_of?(OpenStruct) @table == other.table! end
Returns the value of an attribute.
require "ostruct" person = OpenStruct.new("name" => "John Smith", "age" => 70) person[:age] # => 70, same as person.age
# File lib/ostruct.rb, line 241 def [](name) @table[name.to_sym] end
Sets the value of an attribute.
require "ostruct" person = OpenStruct.new("name" => "John Smith", "age" => 70) person[:age] = 42 # equivalent to person.age = 42 person.age # => 42
# File lib/ostruct.rb, line 256 def []=(name, value) modifiable?[new_ostruct_member!(name)] = value end
Returns a hash, that will be turned into a JSON
object and represent this object.
# File ext/json/lib/json/add/ostruct.rb, line 17 def as_json(*) klass = self.class.name klass.to_s.empty? and raise JSON::JSONError, "Only named structs are supported!" { JSON.create_id => klass, 't' => table, } end
Removes the named field from the object. Returns the value that the field contained if it was defined.
require "ostruct" person = OpenStruct.new(name: "John", age: 70, pension: 300) person.delete_field("age") # => 70 person # => #<OpenStruct name="John", pension=300>
Setting the value to nil
will not remove the attribute:
person.pension = nil person # => #<OpenStruct name="John", pension=nil>
# File lib/ostruct.rb, line 305 def delete_field(name) sym = name.to_sym begin singleton_class.remove_method(sym, "#{sym}=") rescue NameError end @table.delete(sym) do raise NameError.new("no field `#{sym}' in #{self}", sym) end end
Extracts the nested value specified by the sequence of name
objects by calling dig
at each step, returning nil
if any intermediate step is nil
.
require "ostruct" address = OpenStruct.new("city" => "Anytown NC", "zip" => 12345) person = OpenStruct.new("name" => "John Smith", "address" => address) person.dig(:address, "zip") # => 12345 person.dig(:business_address, "zip") # => nil data = OpenStruct.new(:array => [1, [2, 3]]) data.dig(:array, 1, 0) # => 2 data.dig(:array, 0, 0) # TypeError: Integer does not have #dig method
# File lib/ostruct.rb, line 280 def dig(name, *names) begin name = name.to_sym rescue NoMethodError raise TypeError, "#{name} is not a symbol nor a string" end @table.dig(name, *names) end
Yields all attributes (as symbols) along with the corresponding values or returns an enumerator if no block is given.
require "ostruct" data = OpenStruct.new("country" => "Australia", :capital => "Canberra") data.each_pair.to_a # => [[:country, "Australia"], [:capital, "Canberra"]]
# File lib/ostruct.rb, line 147 def each_pair return to_enum(__method__) { @table.size } unless block_given? @table.each_pair{|p| yield p} self end
Compares this object and other
for equality. An OpenStruct
is eql? to other
when other
is an OpenStruct
and the two objects' Hash
tables are eql?.
# File lib/ostruct.rb, line 366 def eql?(other) return false unless other.kind_of?(OpenStruct) @table.eql?(other.table!) end
Object#freeze
# File lib/ostruct.rb, line 197 def freeze @table.each_key {|key| new_ostruct_member!(key)} super end
Computes a hash code for this OpenStruct
. Two OpenStruct
objects with the same content will have the same hash code (and will compare using eql?
).
See also Object#hash
.
# File lib/ostruct.rb, line 376 def hash @table.hash end
Returns a string containing a detailed summary of the keys and values.
# File lib/ostruct.rb, line 321 def inspect ids = (Thread.current[InspectKey] ||= []) if ids.include?(object_id) detail = ' ...' else ids << object_id begin detail = @table.map do |key, value| " #{key}=#{value.inspect}" end.join(',') ensure ids.pop end end ['#<', self.class, detail, '>'].join end
Provides marshalling support for use by the Marshal
library.
# File lib/ostruct.rb, line 156 def marshal_dump @table end
Provides marshalling support for use by the Marshal
library.
# File lib/ostruct.rb, line 163 def marshal_load(x) @table = x end
Converts the OpenStruct
to a hash with keys representing each attribute (as symbols) and their corresponding values.
If a block is given, the results of the block on each pair of the receiver will be used as pairs.
require "ostruct" data = OpenStruct.new("country" => "Australia", :capital => "Canberra") data.to_h # => {:country => "Australia", :capital => "Canberra" } data.to_h {|name, value| [name.to_s, value.upcase] } # => {"country" => "AUSTRALIA", "capital" => "CANBERRA" }
# File lib/ostruct.rb, line 127 def to_h(&block) if block_given? @table.to_h(&block) else @table.dup end end
Stores class name (OpenStruct
) with this struct's values t
as a JSON
string.
