Constructor Details

#initialize(hash = nil) ⇒ OpenStruct

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">

def initialize(hash=nil)
  @table = {}
  if hash
    hash.each_pair do |k, v|
      k = k.to_sym
      @table[k] = v
    end
  end
end

Instance Method Details

#==(other) ⇒ Object

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

#[](name) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

ostruct[name]  -> object

Returns the value of an attribute.

require "ostruct"
person = OpenStruct.new("name" => "John Smith", "age" => 70)
person[:age]   # => 70, same as person.age


241
242
243
# File 'lib/ostruct.rb', line 241

def [](name)
  @table[name.to_sym]
end

#[]=(name, value) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

ostruct[name] = obj  -> obj

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


256
257
258
# File 'lib/ostruct.rb', line 256

def []=(name, value)
  modifiable?[new_ostruct_member!(name)] = value
end

#delete_field(name) ⇒ Object

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>

  rescue NameError
  end
  @table.delete(sym) do
    raise NameError.new("no field `#{sym}' in #{self}", sym)
  end
end

#dig(name, *names) ⇒ Object

:call-seq:

ostruct.dig(name, ...)  -> object

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

  rescue NoMethodError
    raise TypeError, "#{name} is not a symbol nor a string"
  end
  @table.dig(name, *names)
end

#each_pairObject

:call-seq:

ostruct.each_pair {|name, value| block }  -> ostruct
ostruct.each_pair                         -> Enumerator

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"]]

def each_pair

  @table.each_pair{|p| yield p}
  self
end

#eql?(other) ⇒ Boolean

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?.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

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?).

#to_h(&block) ⇒ Object

call-seq:

ostruct.to_h                        -> hash
ostruct.to_h {|name, value| block } -> hash

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" }
