def compact_blank
{ a: "", b: 1, c: nil, d: [], e: false, f: true }.compact_blank
When called on a +Hash+, returns a new +Hash+ without the blank values.
# => [1]
Set.new([nil, "", 1, false]).compact_blank
# => [1, 2, true]
[1, "", nil, 2, " ", [], {}, false, true].compact_blank
Uses Object#blank? for determining if an item is blank.
Returns a new +Array+ without the blank items.
def compact_blank reject(&:blank?) end
def exclude?(object)
The negative of the Enumerable#include?. Returns +true+ if the
def exclude?(object) !include?(object) end
def excluding(*elements)
{foo: 1, bar: 2, baz: 3}.excluding :bar
# => ["David", "Rafael"]
["David", "Rafael", "Aaron", "Todd"].excluding %w[ Aaron Todd ]
# => ["David", "Rafael"]
["David", "Rafael", "Aaron", "Todd"].excluding "Aaron", "Todd"
Returns a copy of the enumerable excluding the specified elements.
def excluding(*elements) elements.flatten!(1) reject { |element| elements.include?(element) } end
def in_order_of(key, series)
If the +series+ include keys that have no corresponding element in the Enumerable, these are ignored.
# => [ Person.find(1), Person.find(5), Person.find(3) ]
[ Person.find(5), Person.find(3), Person.find(1) ].in_order_of(:id, [ 1, 5, 3 ])
objects in the original enumerable.
Returns a new +Array+ where the order has been set to that provided in the +series+, based on the +key+ of the
def in_order_of(key, series) group_by(&key).values_at(*series).flatten(1).compact end
def including(*elements)
["David", "Rafael"].including %w[ Aaron Todd ]
# => [ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ]
[ 1, 2, 3 ].including(4, 5)
Returns a new array that includes the passed elements.

element as the value.
Convert an enumerable to a hash, using the block result as the key and the
def index_by if block_given? result = {} each { |elem| result[yield(elem)] = elem } result else to_enum(:index_by) { size if respond_to?(:size) } end end
def index_with(default = (no_default = true))
%i( created_at updated_at ).index_with(Time.now)
for all elements:
If an argument is passed instead of a block, it will be used as the value
# => { title: "hey there", body: "what's up?" }
%i( title body ).index_with { |attr_name| post.public_send(attr_name) }
post = Post.new(title: "hey there", body: "what's up?")
result as the value.
Convert an enumerable to a hash, using the element as the key and the block

def many?
much like any?, so people.many? { |p| p.age > 26 } returns +true+
equivalent to enum.to_a.size > 1. Can be called with a block too,
Returns +true+ if the enumerable has more than 1 element. Functionally
def many? cnt = 0 if block_given? any? do |*args| cnt += 1 if yield(*args) cnt > 1 end else any? { (cnt += 1) > 1 } end end
def maximum(key)
payments = [Payment.new(5), Payment.new(15), Payment.new(10)]
Calculates the maximum from the extracted elements.
def maximum(key) map(&key).max end
def minimum(key)
payments = [Payment.new(5), Payment.new(15), Payment.new(10)]
Calculates the minimum from the extracted elements.

[{ id: 1, name: "David" }, { id: 2, name: "Rafael" }].pick(:id, :name)
# => "David"
[{ name: "David" }, { name: "Rafael" }, { name: "Aaron" }].pick(:name)
Extract the given key from the first element in the enumerable.
def pick(*keys) return if none? if keys.many? keys.map { |key| first[key] } else first[keys.first] end end
def pluck(*keys)
[{ id: 1, name: "David" }, { id: 2, name: "Rafael" }].pluck(:id, :name)
# => ["David", "Rafael", "Aaron"]
[{ name: "David" }, { name: "Rafael" }, { name: "Aaron" }].pluck(:name)
Extract the given key from each element in the enumerable.
def pluck(*keys) if keys.many? map { |element| keys.map { |key| element[key] } } else key = keys.first map { |element| element[key] } end end
def sole
Set.new.sole # => Enumerable::SoleItemExpectedError: no item found
["x"].sole # => "x"
than one item, raises +Enumerable::SoleItemExpectedError+.
Returns the sole item in the enumerable. If there are no items, or more
def sole case count when 1 then return first # rubocop:disable Style/RedundantReturn when 0 then raise ActiveSupport::EnumerableCoreExt::SoleItemExpectedError, "no item found" when 2.. then raise ActiveSupport::EnumerableCoreExt::SoleItemExpectedError, "multiple items found" end end
