HCast Build Status Code Climate

HCast is a library for casting hash attributes

Usage

Create caster class and declare hash attributes inside:

class ContactCaster
  include HCast::Caster

  attributes do
    hash :contact do
      string   :name
      integer  :age, optional: true
      float    :weight
      date     :birthday
      datetime :last_logged_in
      time     :last_visited_at
      hash :company do
        string :name
      end
      array :emails, each: :string
      array :social_accounts, each: :hash do
        string :name
        symbol :type
      end
    end
  end
end

Instanticate the caster and give your hash for casting:

ContactCaster.cast({
    contact: {
      name: "John Smith",
      age: "22",
      weight: "65.5",
      birthday: "2014-02-02",
      last_logged_in: "2014-02-02 10:10:00",
      last_visited_at: "2014-02-02 10:10:00",
      company: {
        name: "MyCo"
      },
      emails: ["[email protected]", "[email protected]"],
      social_accounts: [
        {
          name: "john_smith",
          type: "twitter"
        },
        {
          name: "John",
          type: :facebook
        }
      ]
    }
  }
})

The caster will cast your hash attributes to:

{
  contact: {
    name: "John Smith",
    age: 22,
    weight: 65.5,
    birthday: #<Date: 2014-02-02 ((2456691j,0s,0n),+0s,2299161j)>,
    last_logged_in: #<DateTime: 2014-02-02T10:10:00+00:00 ((2456691j,36600s,0n),+0s,2299161j)>,
    last_visited_at: 2014-02-02 10:10:00 +0400,
    company: {
      name: "MyCo"
    },
    emails: ["[email protected]", "[email protected]"],
    social_accounts: [
      {
        name: "john_smith",
        type: :twitter"
      },
      {
        name: "John",
        type: :facebook
      }
    ]
  }
}

if some of the attributes can't be casted the HCast::Errors::CastingError is raised
