#uber_array
UberArray is an Array based datatype that enables SQL-like where syntax for arrays of Hashes or Objects.
In Hash based arrays each element is a Hash with symbols or strings as keys. In Object based arrays each element is an Object-derived instance that responds to attribute names instead of keys.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'uber_array'
And then execute:
$ bundle install
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install uber_array
Usage
require 'uber_array'
# Array of Hash elements with strings as keys
items = [
{ 'name' => 'Jack', 'score' => 999, 'active' => false },
{ 'name' => 'Jake', 'score' => 888, 'active' => true },
{ 'name' => 'John', 'score' => 777, 'active' => true }
]
uber_items = UberArray.new(items)
uber_items.where('name' => 'John')
uber_items.where('name' => /Ja/i)
uber_items.like('ja')
uber_items.where('name' => %w(Dave John Tom))
uber_items.where('score' => 999)
uber_items.where('score' => ->(s){s > 900})
uber_items.where('active' => true, 'score' => 800..900)
uber_items.map_by('name')
Player = Struct.new(:name, :score, :active)
# Array of Object-like Struct elements with attributes
objs = [
Player.new('Jack', 999, false),
Player.new('Jake', 888, true),
Player.new('John', 777, true)
]
uber_objs = UberArray.new(objs, :primary_key => :__name__)
uber_objs.where(:__name__ => 'John')
uber_objs.where(:__name__ => /Ja/i)
uber_objs.like('ja')
uber_objs.where(:__name__ => %w(Dave John Tom))
uber_objs.where(:__score__ => 999)
uber_objs.where(:__score__ => ->(s){s > 900})
uber_objs.where(:__active__ => true, :__score__ => 800..900)Contributing
