Simple wrapper to filter array using Ruby and simple predicate conditions
Because in sometimes, we need filter array passing conditions. This gem simplify this work.

Use bundle
bundle add recollect-array
or add this line to your application's Gemfile.
gem 'recollect-array'
and then, require module
require 'recollect/array'
Without configuration, because we use only Ruby. ❤️
Type | Suffix | Value |
---|---|---|
Equal | eq | Anywhere |
NotEqual | noteq | Anywhere |
Contains | cont | Anywhere |
NotContains | notcont | Anywhere |
Included | in | Anywhere |
NotIncluded | notin | Anywhere |
Start | start | Anywhere |
NotStart | notstart | Anywhere |
End | end | Anywhere |
NotEnd | notend | Anywhere |
LessThan | lt | Anywhere |
LessThanEqual | lteq | Anywhere |
GreaterThan | gt | Anywhere |

💡 Below predicates works only when value is Hash
Type | Suffix | Value |

NotEqual | not_eq | Hash |

Think that your data seems like this.
data = [
{
id: 1,
name: 'Test #1',
email: 'test1@email1.com',
schedule: { all_day: true },
numbers: %w[1 2],
active: true,
count: 9
},
{
id: 2,
name: 'Test #2',
email: 'test2@email2.com',
schedule: { all_day: false },
numbers: %w[3 4],
active: true,
count: 10
},
{
id: 3,
name: 'Test #3',
email: 'test3@email3.com',
schedule: { all_day: false },
numbers: %w[5 6],
active: false,
count: 99
}
]
You can use one or multiples predicates in your filter. We see some use cases.
Equal
filters = {
active: {
eq: true
}
}
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
NotEqual
filters = {
active: {
# noteq or not_eq
not_eq: true
}
}
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
Nested Hash Paths
filters = {
'schedule.all_day': {
eq: true
}
}
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
Nested Array Paths
Note the
.0
🎉
filters = {
'numbers.0': {
eq: '3'
}
}
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
filters = {
numbers: {
in: '3' # or in: ['3']
}
}
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
Using default Equal predicate.
Recollect::Array.filter(data, numbers: 3)
Recollect::Array.filter(data, active: true)
Recollect::Array.filter(data, id: 3)
If array, you can navigate into self, using property.NUMBER.property
data = [
{
schedules: [
{
opened: true,
all_day: true
},
{
opened: false,
all_day: true
}
]
},
{
schedules: [
{
opened: false,
all_day: true
},
{
opened: false,
all_day: true
}
]
}
]
filters = {
'schedules.0.opened': {
eq: true
}
}
# OR
filters = {
'schedules[0]opened': {
eq: true
}
}
# OR
filters = {
'schedules.[0].opened': {
eq: true
}
}
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
# [{ schedules: [{ opened: true, all_day: true }, { opened: false, all_day: true }] }]
Amazing, you can pass a Callable value as value, like this.
filters = {
'schedules.[0].opened': {
eq: -> { true }
}
}
# OR a Module
module ActiveTruthy
def self.call = true
end
module NumbersAvailable
def self.call = %w[1 2]
end
filters = {
'schedules.[0].opened': {
eq: ActiveTruthy
},
numbers: {
in: NumbersAvailable
}
}
# OR a Class
class ActiveFalsey
def self.call = false
end
filters = {
'schedules.[0].opened': {
eq: ActiveFalsey
}
}
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
Combine conditions
Yes, you can combine one or multiple predicates to filter you array.
filters = {
active: { eq: true },
numbers: {
in: %w[5],
not_in: '10'
},
email: {
cont: 'email1',
not_cont: '@gmail'
},
'schedule.all_day': {
in: [true, false]
}
}
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
Equal
filters = { active_eq: true }
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
NotEqual
filters = { active_noteq: true }
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
Nested Hash Paths
filters = { 'schedule.all_day_eq': false }
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
Nested Array Paths
Note the
.0
🎉
filters = { 'numbers.0_eq': '3' }
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
filters = { numbers_in: ['1'] }
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
expect(collection.size).to eq(1)
Combine conditions
Yes, you can combine one or multiple predicates to filter you array.
filters = {
active_noteq: true,
numbers_in: %w[5],
email_cont: 'test3',
'schedule.all_day_eq': false
}
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
Receive querystring in your route
Like Ransack, imagine that you receive an querystring and you want to filter your Array. So, you can to do something like this.
⚠️ But security is your responsability, ok? Let's go!
# receive querystring in your route
querystring = "active_noteq=true&numbers_in=5&email_cont=test3&schedule.all_day_eq=false"
# parse querystring and transform to Hash
params = URI.decode_www_form(querystring).to_h
# filter your collection using params directly.
collection = Recollect::Array.filter(data, filters)
# Beautiful, right? 🎉
user = {
id: 1,
name: 'Test #1',
email: 'test1@email1.com',
schedule: { all_day: true },
numbers: %w[1 2],
active: true,
count: 9
}
result = Recollect::Hashie.get(user, 'id')
-> 1
result = Recollect::Hashie.get(user, 'schedule.all_day')
-> true
result = Recollect::Hashie.get(user, 'numbers')
-> ['1', '2']
result = Recollect::Hashie.get(user, 'numbers.0')
-> 1
result = Recollect::Hashie.get(user, 'numbers[0]')
-> 1
result = Recollect::Hashie.get(user, 'numbers[0][1]')
result = Recollect::Hashie.get(user, 'numbers.[0].[1]')
users = [
{
id: 1,
name: 'Test #1',
email: 'test1@email1.com',
schedule: { all_day: true },
numbers: %w[1 2],
active: true,
count: 9
},
{
id: 2,
name: 'Test #1',
email: 'test1@email1.com',
schedule: { all_day: true },
numbers: %w[1 2],
active: true,
count: 9
}
]
result = Recollect::Array.pluck(users, 'id')
$ -> [1, 2]
result = Recollect::Array.pluck(users, 'schedule.all_day')
$ -> [true, true]
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run bundle exec rspec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
