convert hash to object

Question

I am trying to convert hash and nested hashes to objects.

so far first hash object is converted successfully by this code:

class Hashit
  def initialize(         


        

Answer 1

You could check the type on v when you initialize the object and call new to get a new Hashit when it is a another hash.

class Hashit
  def initialize(hash)
    hash.each do |k,v|
      self.instance_variable_set("@#{k}", v.is_a?(Hash) ? Hashit.new(v) : v)
      self.class.send(:define_method, k, proc{self.instance_variable_get("@#{k}")})
      self.class.send(:define_method, "#{k}=", proc{|v| self.instance_variable_set("@#{k}", v)})
    end
  end
end

and the resulting snippet from before would be:

h = Hashit.new({a: '123r', b: {c: 'sdvs'}})
=> #>
