Ruby on Rails - 收集具有相同特定值的散列

Question

给定一个散列阵列，其中每个散列都像{"date":"date_value", "slots":[slots_value]}，我想要在一个散列和合并插槽阵列上收集具有相同日期的散列。

示例输入：

[{"date" : "2016/23/12", "slots" : ["a","b"]}, 
{"date" : "2016/23/12", "slots" : ["c","d","e"]}, 
{"date" : "2016/24/12", "slots" : ["x"]} 
] 

输出示例：

[{"date" : "2016/23/12", "slots" : ["a","b","c","d","e"]}, 
{"date" : "2016/24/12", "slots" : ["x"]} 
] 

Answer 1

Enumerable#group_by为哈希和阵列一个非常强大的工具：

input = [ 
    {"date" => "2016/23/12" , "slots" => ["a","b"]}, 
    {"date" => "2016/23/12", "slots" => ["c","d","e"]}, 
    {"date" => "2016/24/12", "slots" => ["x"]} 
] 

puts input.group_by{|h| h["date"]}.map{|date, hashes| 
    { 
    "date" => date, 
    "slots" => hashes.map{|h| h["slots"]}.flatten 
    } 
} 
#=> {"date"=>"2016/23/12", "slots"=>["a", "b", "c", "d", "e"]} 
# {"date"=>"2016/24/12", "slots"=>["x"]}
