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.

Examples:

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

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

Return a new hash with all keys converted to strings.
