Would a custom order of a hash be useful in Rails? If I have the following Hash: my_hash = { key1: 'value', key2: 'value', key3: 'value' } And I want to order it by the following keys: my_hash = my_hash.order(:key2, :key1, :key3) I would get a new hash with the following result: puts my_hash => { key2: 'value', key1: 'value', key3: 'value' } Using the following code: class Hash def order(*keys) Hash[keys.collect {|k| self[k] ? [k, self[k]] : nil }.compact] end end Any thoughts? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
