LetterGroup

Organize data results from raw sql queries (as with PGresult, or Dossier) intelligently. Or even simple arrays of hashes.

See specs for examples.

No view code yet, for now just the logic.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'letter_group'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install letter_group

Here's a silly example. You did a raw SQL query and don't know how to see the result, and somehow Google isn't working right now (!):

[1] pry(main)> ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute("select localtimestamp at time zone 'UTC'")
   (1.9ms)  select localtimestamp at time zone 'UTC'
=> #<PG::Result:0x007fbde1b9b170 @connection=#<PG::Connection:0x007fbdfa9aee70 @notice_processor=nil, @notice_receiver=nil, @socket_io=nil>>

Oh Noes! LetterGroup::Group is a can opener. Use it.

[9] pry(main)> LetterGroup::Group.new(ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute("select localtimestamp at time zone 'UTC'")).rows
   (0.5ms)  select localtimestamp at time zone 'UTC'
=> {nil=>[{"timezone"=>"2015-10-17 20:06:39.212512+00"}]}

See specs for more real world usage examples.

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install.

To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release to create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.

This library aims to adhere to Semantic Versioning 2.0.0. Violations of this scheme should be reported as bugs. Specifically, if a minor or patch version is released that breaks backward compatibility, a new version should be immediately released that restores compatibility. Breaking changes to the public API will only be introduced with new major versions.

As a result of this policy, you can (and should) specify a dependency on this gem using the Pessimistic Version Constraint with two digits of precision.

For example:

spec.add_dependency 'letter_group', '~> 0.1'

1. Fork it ( https://github.com/[my-github-username]/letter_group/fork )
2. Create your feature branch (git checkout -b my-new-feature)
3. Commit your changes (git commit -am 'Add some feature')
4. Push to the branch (git push origin my-new-feature)
5. Create a new Pull Request
