Have you ever needed to automatically convert Rubyish snake_case
to JSON-style camelBack
or CamelCase
hash keys?
Awrence to the rescue.
This gem recursively converts all snake_case keys in a hash structure to camelBack or CamelCase.
Add this to your Gemfile:
gem "awrence"
Or install it yourself as:
gem install awrence
my_hash = {"first_key" => 1, "foo_bars" => [{"baz_baz" => "value"}, {"blah_blah" => "value"}]}
camel_hash = my_hash.to_camel_keys
# => {"FirstKey" => 1, "FooBars" => [{"BazBaz" => "value"}, {"BlahBlah" => "value"}]}
# OR
camel_hash = my_hash.to_camelback_keys
# => {"firstKey" => 1, "fooBars" => [{"bazBaz" => "value"}, {"blahBlah" => "value"}]}
Awrence works on either string keys or symbolized keys. It has no dependencies, as it has its own camelize
method lifted out of ActiveSupport.
You can set acronyms that Awrence will now check against when converting the keys.
Awrence.acronyms = { "url" => "URL", "id" => "ID" }
my_hash = { "user_url" => "http://a.com", "user_id" => 2 }
camel_hash = my_hash.to_camel_keys
# => { "UserURL" => "http://a.com", "UserID" => 2 }
camel_hash = my_hash.to_camelback_keys
# => { "userURL" => "http://a.com", "userID" => 2 }
The acronym will be ignored when it's the first word and to_camelback_keys
is called.
Awrence.acronyms = { "id" => "ID" }
my_hash = { "id" => 2 }
camel_hash = my_hash.to_camel_keys
# => { "ID" => 2 }
camel_hash = my_hash.to_camelback_keys
# => { "id" => 2 }
- There is no
Hash#to_camel_keys!
form.
If you've already got CamelCase
and need to snake_case
it, you are encouraged to try
the Plissken gem.
- Check out the latest master to make sure the feature hasn't been implemented or the bug hasn't been fixed yet.
- Check out the issue tracker to make sure someone already hasn't requested it and/or contributed it.
- Fork the project.
- Start a feature/bugfix branch.
- Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution.
- Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
- Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
