Can anyone help me with this problem?
So, here is the problem, I want to merge this query response:
#energy = Alert.where(["alert_type = ?", "Energy"]).last.as_json
#cost = Alert.where(["alert_type = ?", "Cost"]).last.as_json
Then I merge those object with:
#current_notif = #energy.merge(#cost)
But those just give me #cost object like this:
{
"alert_type": "Cost",
"value": 30000000,
"status": "Cost exceeds limit",
"created_at": "2017-06-03T15:31:21.156+07:00",
"updated_at": "2017-06-03T15:31:21.156+07:00",
"home_id": 2
}
Rather than a merged #energy + #cost like this:
{ {"alert_type": "Energy",
"value": 384455.813978742,
"status": "Energy too high",
"created_at": "2017-05-31T11:31:12.907+07:00",
"updated_at": "2017-05-31T11:31:12.907+07:00",
"home_id": 2 },
{
"alert_type": "Cost",
"value": 30000000,
"status": "Cost exceeds limit",
"created_at": "2017-06-03T15:31:21.156+07:00",
"updated_at": "2017-06-03T15:31:21.156+07:00",
"home_id": 2
}
}
If you want you could "join" both values, and then over that use as_json:
[#energy, #cost].as_json
# [{"alert_type": "Energy", ... }, {"alert_type": "Cost", ... }]
Or if you want you could use the IN expression, in order to deal with ActiveRecord instead having to customize the result this gives you:
Alert.where(alert_type: ['Energy', 'Cost']).as_json
# [{"alert_type": "Energy", ... }, {"alert_type": "Cost", ... }]
This is happening because that's how merge works.
hash = {:name => "Ade", :gender => "Male"}.merge(:name => "Bob")
puts hash # {:name=>"Bob", :gender=>"Male"}
Solution:
results = [ #energy, #cost ]
results.each do |result|
puts result['alert_type'] # Energy, Cost
end

I want to get a specific output from the Typeform API.
This is the response I get back.
Example response:
"answers": [
{
"field": {
"id": "hVONkQcnSNRj",
"type": "dropdown",
"ref": "my_custom_dropdown_reference"
},
"type": "text",
"text": "Job opportunities"
},
{
"field": {
"id": "RUqkXSeXBXSd",
"type": "yes_no",
"ref": "my_custom_yes_no_reference"
},
"type": "boolean",
"boolean": false
}
]
Why does .first work and why does .second not work ?
My OrdersController.rb
items = response.parsed_response["items"]
items.each do |item|
#order = current_user.orders.find_or_create_by(landing_id: item["landing_id"]) do |order|
item["answers"].each do |answer|
order.landing_id = item["landing_id"]
order.email = item["hidden"]["email"]
order.price = item["hidden"]["price"]
order.moduls = item["hidden"]["moduls"]
order.project = item["hidden"]["project"]
order.website = answer.first # This works
order.payment = answer.second # undefined method `second' for #<Hash:0x11f83e78>
end
end
end
You can do
answers.each { |answer| answer[:field] }
or, if you want ids for example
answers.map { |answer| answer.dig(:field, :id) }
Because ruby hash doesn't have any second or last methods. You can access value with the help of keys. e.g. answer[:type], answer[:text]
item["answers"].each do |answer| was an overkill. The solution was as simple as that:
order.website = item["answers"][1]["text] # Access the first field of answers array
order.payment = item["answers"][2]["text] # Access the second field of answers array
I have a json object. It has multiple fields "passthrough_fields" which is unnecessary for me and I want to remove them. Is there a way to get all those attributes filtered out?
JSON:
{

"uri": "/v2/programmes/playable?container=p06qbzmj&sort=sequential&type=episode",
"passthrough_fields": {}
}
],
"passthrough_fields": {}
}
Is there a way I can remove all those fields and store the updated json in a new variable?
You can do this recursively to tackle nested occurances of passthrough_fields, whether they're found in an array or a sub hash. Inline comments to explain things a little as it goes:
hash = JSON.parse(input) # convert the JSON to a hash
def remove_recursively(hash, *to_remove)
hash.each do |key, val|
hash.except!(*to_remove) # the heavy lifting: remove all keys that match `to_remove`
remove_recursively(val, *to_remove) if val.is_a? Hash # if a nested hash, run this method on it
if val.is_a? Array # if a nested array, loop through this checking for hashes to run this method on
val.each { |el| remove_recursively(el, *to_remove) if el.is_a? Hash }
end
end
end
remove_recursively(hash, 'passthrough_fields')
To demonstrate, with a simplified example:
hash = {
"test" => { "passthrough_fields" => [1, 2, 3], "wow" => '123' },
"passthrough_fields" => [4, 5, 6],
"array_values" => [{ "to_stay" => "I am", "passthrough_fields" => [7, 8, 9]}]
}
remove_recursively(hash, 'passthrough_fields')
#=> {"test"=>{"wow"=>"123"}, "array_values"=>[{"to_stay"=>"I am"}]}
remove_recursively(hash, 'passthrough_fields', 'wow', 'to_stay')
#=> {"test"=>{}, "array_values"=>[{}]}
This will tackle any arrays, and will dig for nested hashes however deep it needs to go.
It takes any number of fields to remove, in this case a single 'passthrough_fields'.
Hope this helps, let me know how you get on.
I think that the easiest solution would be to:
convert JSON into hash (JSON.parse(input))
use this answer to extend the functionality of Hash (save it in config/initializers/except_nested.rb)
on the hash from 1st step, call:
without_passthrough = your_hash.except_nested('passthrough_fields')
covert hash to JSON (without_passthrough.to_json)
Please keep in mind that it will work for passthrough_fields that is nested directly in hashes. In your JSON, you have the following part:
"uris" => [
{
"type"=>"latest",
"label"=>"Latest",
"uri"=>"/v2/programmes/playable?container=p06qbzmj&sort=sequential&type=episode",
"passthrough_fields"=>{}
}
]
In this case, the passthrough_fields will not be removed. You have to find a more sophisticated solution :)
You can do something like this:
def nested_except(hash, except_key)
sanitized_hash = {}
hash.each do |key, value|
next if key == except_key
sanitized_hash[key] = value.is_a?(Hash) ? nested_except(value, except_key) : value
end
sanitized_hash
end
json = JSON.parse(json_string)
sanitized = nested_except(json, 'passthrough_fields')
See example:
json = { :a => 1, :b => 2, :c => { :a => 1, :b => { :a => 1 } } }
nested_except(json, :a)
# => {:b=>2, :c=>{:b=>{}}}
This helper can easily be converted to support multiple keys to except, simply by except_keys = Array.wrap(except_key) and next if except_keys.include?(key)
I am building a Rails 5 app.
In this app I have connected to the Google Calendar API.
The connection works fine and I get a list of calendars back.
What I need to do is to get the Id and Summary of this JSON object that I get back from Google.
This is what I get
[{
"kind": "calendar#calendarListEntry",
"etag": "\"1483552200690000\"",
"id": "xxx.com_asae#group.calendar.google.com",
"summary": "My office calendar",
"description": "For office meeting",
"location": "344 Common st",
"colorId": "8",
"backgroundColor": "#16a765",
"foregroundColor": "#000000",
"accessRole": "owner",
"defaultReminders": [],
"conferenceProperties": {
"allowedConferenceSolutionTypes": [
"hangoutsMeet"
]
}
},
{
"kind": "calendar#calendarListEntry",
"etag": "\"1483552200690000\"",
"id": "xxx.com_asae#group.calendar.google.com",
"summary": "My office calendar",
"description": "For office meeting",
"location": "344 Common st",
"colorId": "8",
"backgroundColor": "#16a765",
"foregroundColor": "#000000",
"accessRole": "owner",
"defaultReminders": [],
"conferenceProperties": {
"allowedConferenceSolutionTypes": [
"hangoutsMeet"
]
}
}]
This is what I want to end up with
[{
"id": "xxx.com_asae#group.calendar.google.com",
"title": "My office calendar",
}]
The purpose of this is that I want to populate a selectbox using Selectize plugin
Another way to achieve removing of certain keys in your hash is by using Hash#reject method:
response = { your_json_response }
expected = [response[0].reject {|k| k != :id && k != :summary}]
The original response remains unchanged while a mutated copy of the original response is returned.
You can filter the desierd keys with the select method:
responde = {your_json_response}
expected = [response[0].select{|k,v| ['id','title'].include?(k)}]
response[0] retrieves the hash, and the select compares each key with the ones you want and returns a hash with only those key: value pairs.
EDIT: I missed that you don't have a "title" key on the original response, I would do this then:
response = {your_json_response}
h = response[0]
expected = [{'id' => h['id'], 'title' => h['summary']}]
EDIT 2: Sorry, the first example was not clear that there would be multiple hashes
expected = response.map{|h| {'id' => h['id'], 'title' => h['summary']}}
map iterates over each element of response and returns the result of the block applied for each iteration as an array, so the blocks is apllied to each h and it generates a new hash from it
I suggest this approach.
expected = response.each { |h| h.keep_if { |k, _| k == :id || k == :summary } }
It returns just the required pairs:
# => [{:id=>"xxx.com_asae#group.calendar.google.com", :summary=>"My office calendar"}, {:id=>"xxx.com_asae#group.calendar.google.com", :summary=>"My office calendar"}]
To remove duplicates, just do expected.uniq
If you need to change the key name :summary to :title do:
expected = expected.each { |h| h[:title] = h.delete(:summary) }
One liner
expected = response.each { |h| h.keep_if { |k, _| k == :id || k == :summary } }.each { |h| h[:title] = h.delete(:summary) }.uniq
Of course, maybe it is better to move .uniq as first method expected = response.uniq.each { .....
I'm currently working on a simple hash loop, to manipulate some json data. Here's my Json data:
{
"polls": [
{ "id": 1, "question": "Pensez-vous utiliser le service de cordonnerie/pressing au moins 2 fois par mois ?" },
{ "id": 2, "question": "Avez-vous passé une bonne semaine ?" },
{ "id": 3, "question": "Le saviez-vous ? Il existe une journée d'accompagnement familial." }
],
"answers": [
{ "id": 1, "poll_id": 1, "value": true },
{ "id": 2, "poll_id": 3, "value": false },
{ "id": 3, "poll_id": 2, "value": 3 }
]
}
I want to have the poll_id value and the value from the answers hash. So here's what I code :
require 'json'
file = File.read('data.json')
datas = JSON.parse(file)
result = Hash.new
datas["answers"].each do |answer|
result["polls"] = {"id" => answer["poll_id"], "value" => answer["value"]}
end
polls_json = result.to_json
However, it returns me :
{
"polls": {
"id": 2,
"value": 3
}
}
Here's the output i am looking for :
{
"polls": [
{
"id": 1,
"value": true
},
{
"id": 2,
"value": 3
},
{
"id": 3,
"value": false
}
]
}
It seems that the value is not saved into my loop. I've tried different method but I still cannot find a solution .. Any suggestions?
You should be using reduce here, i.e.
datas["answers"].reduce({ polls: [] }) do |hash, data|
hash[:polls] << { id: data["poll_id"], value: data["value"] }
hash
end
This method iterates through the answers, making available the object supplied to reduce (in this case a hash with a :polls array) to which we pass each data hash.
I'd personally, um, reduce this a little further with the following, although it's at some cost to readability:
datas["answers"].reduce({ polls: [] }) do |hash, data|
hash.tap { |h| h[:polls] << { id: data["poll_id"], value: data["value"] } }
end
It's the cleanest method to achieve what you're looking for, using a built-for-purpose method.
Docs for reduce here: https://ruby-doc.org/core-2.1.0/Enumerable.html#method-i-reduce
(I'd also be inclined to update the variable names - data is already plural, so 'datas' is a little confusing to anyone else coming to your code.)
Edit: #max makes a great point re symbol / string keys from your data - keep that in mind if you attempt to apply this.
try the below:
require 'json'
file = File.read('data.json')
datas = JSON.parse(file)
result = Hash.new
poll_json = []
datas["answers"].each do |answer|
poll_json << {"id" => answer["poll_id"], "value" => answer["value"]}
end
p "json = "#{poll_json}"
{
polls: datas["answers"].map do |a|
{ id: a["poll_id"], value: a["value"] }
end
}
In general use .map to iterate through arrays and hashes and return new objects. .each should only be used when you are only concerned about the side effects (like in a view when you are outputting values).
require 'json'
json = JSON.parse(File.read('data.json'))
result = {
polls: json["answers"].map do |a|
{ id: a["poll_id"], value: a["value"] }
end
}
puts result.to_json
The output is:
{"polls":[{"id":1,"value":true},{"id":3,"value":false},{"id":2,"value":3}]}
These is sample response of hashes in ruby.
Eg:-
find abcd1234
should give me
i was able to find by but it's not sufficent
I have response of sth like these and list keep on going different value but same structure
[
{
"addon_service": {
"id": "01234567-89ab-cdef-0123-456789abcdef",

"web_url": "https://postgres.heroku.com/databases/01234567-89ab-cdef-0123-456789abcdef"
} .........
]
can anyone know how to grab those?
You can iterate all array element (a hash) and display its content if the hash meet your requirement:
element_found = 0
YOUR_DATA.each do |element|
if element["provider_id"].match(/abcd1234/)
element_found += 1
puts "addon_service: #{element['addon_service']['name']}"
puts "app: #{element['app']['name']}"
end
end
if element_found == 0 puts "Sorry match didn't found"
Since the elements of the array are hashes you can select the appropriate ones by matching the desired key.
select {|app| app[:provider_id] == "abcd1234"}
Do you know what to do with the element once you select it?
I think you want some of the items from the hash, but not all of them.
That might look like:
select {|app| app[:provider_id] == "abcd1234"}.map {|app| app.select {|key, v| [:addon_service, :app].include?(key) } }
