Utility module to include when needing to convert certain types of objects to mongo-friendly parameters.
Converts the supplied Array to a Hash to pass to mongo as sorting parameters. The returned Hash will vary depending on whether the passed Array is one or two dimensional.
Example:
array_as_sort_parameters([["field1", :asc], ["field2", :desc]]) => { "field1" => 1, "field2" => -1}
# File lib/mongo/util/conversions.rb, line 34 def array_as_sort_parameters(value) order_by = BSON::OrderedHash.new if value.first.is_a? Array value.each do |param| if (param.class.name == "String") order_by[param] = 1 else order_by[param[0]] = sort_value(param[1]) unless param[1].nil? end end elsif !value.empty? if order_by.size == 1 order_by[value.first] = 1 else order_by[value.first] = sort_value(value[1]) end end order_by end
Converts the String, Symbol, or Integer to the corresponding sort value in MongoDB.
Valid conversions (case-insensitive):
ascending, asc, :ascending, :asc, 1 => 1 descending, desc, :descending, :desc, -1 => -1
If the value is invalid then an error will be raised.
# File lib/mongo/util/conversions.rb, line 78 def sort_value(value) val = value.to_s.downcase return 1 if ASCENDING_CONVERSION.include?(val) return -1 if DESCENDING_CONVERSION.include?(val) raise InvalidSortValueError.new( "#{self} was supplied as a sort direction when acceptable values are: " + "Mongo::ASCENDING, 'ascending', 'asc', :ascending, :asc, 1, Mongo::DESCENDING, " + "'descending', 'desc', :descending, :desc, -1.") end
Converts the supplied String or Symbol to a Hash to pass to mongo as a sorting parameter with ascending order. If the String is empty then an empty Hash will be returned.
Example:
*DEPRECATED
string_as_sort_parameters("field") => { "field" => 1 } string_as_sort_parameters("") => {}
# File lib/mongo/util/conversions.rb, line 64 def string_as_sort_parameters(value) return {} if (str = value.to_s).empty? { str => 1 } end
