Objectize

This gem converts hashes into objects, so you can do my_object.a.b.c instead of my_hash['a']['b']['c']. It works with deeply nested hashes and arrays.

This can be useful for API responses and other nested data.

Install the gem globally:

gem install objectize

Or add this line to your Gemfile:

gem 'objectize'

and run bundle install.

my_object = Objectize.to_object(a: { b: { c: 'foo' } })
my_object.a.b.c #=> 'foo'

To revert an objectized element back to a basic type, you can do:

my_hash = Objectize.to_basic_type(my_object)
my_hash['a']['b']['c'] #=> 'foo'

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also 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, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
