Overview

A Row is part ::Array and part Hash. It retains an order for the fields and allows duplicates just as an ::Array would, but also allows you to access fields by name just as you could if they were in a Hash.

All rows returned by ::CSV will be constructed from this class, if header row processing is activated.

Constructor Details

.new(headers, fields, header_row = false) ⇒ Row

Construct a new Row from #headers and #fields, which are expected to be Arrays. If one ::Array is shorter than the other, it will be padded with nil objects.

The optional header_row parameter can be set to true to indicate, via Row.header_row?() and Row.field_row?(), that this is a header row. Otherwise, the row is assumes to be a field row.

A Row object supports the following ::Array methods through delegation:

  • empty?()

  • length()

  • size()

      #<<(field )  
      #<<(header_and_field_array )  
      #<<(header_and_field_hash )  
    

  



  

    

If a two-element ::Array is provided, it is assumed to be a header and field and the pair is appended.  A Hash works the same way with the key being the header and the value being the field.  Anything else is assumed to be a lone field which is appended with a nil header.



This method returns the row for chaining.

    #==(other)  
  



  

    

Returns true if this row contains the same headers and fields in the same order as other.

    #[](header_or_index, minimum_index = 0)  
  



  

    

Alias for #field.

      #[]=(header, value )  
      #[]=(header, offset, value )  
      #[]=(index, value )  
    

  



  

    

Looks up the field by the semantics described in Row.field() and assigns the value.



Assigning past the end of the row with an index will set all pairs between to [nil, nil].  Assigning to an unused header appends the new pair.

# File 'lib/csv.rb', line 349



def []=(*args)
  value = args.pop

  if args.first.is_a? Integer
    if @row[args.first].nil?  # extending past the end with index
      @row[args.first] = [nil, value]
      @row.map! { |pair| pair.nil? ? [nil, nil] : pair }
    else                      # normal index assignment

end


  








  

    

      #delete(header)  
      #delete(header, offset)  
      #delete(index)  
    

  



  

    

Used to remove a pair from the row by header or #index.  The pair is located as described in Row.field().  The deleted pair is returned, or nil if a pair could not be found.


  





  


  [ GitHub ]


  

  


# File 'lib/csv.rb', line 417



def delete(header_or_index, minimum_index = 0)
  if header_or_index.is_a? Integer                 # by index
    @row.delete_at(header_or_index)
  elsif i = index(header_or_index, minimum_index)  # by header
    @row.delete_at(i)
  else
    [ ]
  end
end


  








  

    #delete_if(&block)  
  



  

    

The provided block is passed a header and field for each pair in the row and expected to return true or false, depending on whether the pair should be deleted.



This method returns the row for chaining.



If no block is given, an Enumerator is returned.


  



  [ GitHub ]


  

  


# File 'lib/csv.rb', line 436



def delete_if(&block)
  block or return enum_for(__method__) { size }

  @row.delete_if(&block)

  self  # for chaining
end


  








  

    #each(&block)  
  



  

    

Yields each pair of the row as header and field tuples (much like iterating over a Hash). This method returns the row for chaining.



If no block is given, an Enumerator is returned.



Support for Enumerable.


  



  [ GitHub ]


  

  


# File 'lib/csv.rb', line 513



def each(&block)
  block or return enum_for(__method__) { size }

  @row.each(&block)

  self  # for chaining
end


  








  

    

      #fetch(header)  
      #fetch(header) {|row| ... } 
      #fetch(header, default)  
    

  



  

    

This method will fetch the field value by header. It has the same behavior as Hash#fetch: if there is a field with the given header, its value is returned. Otherwise, if a block is given, it is yielded the header and its result is returned; if a default is given as the second argument, it is returned; otherwise a KeyError is raised.


  





  
Raises:

# File 'lib/csv.rb', line 312



def fetch(header, *varargs)
  raise ArgumentError, "Too many arguments" if varargs.length > 1

  if pair
    pair.last
  else
    if block_given?
      yield header
    elsif varargs.empty?
      raise KeyError, "key not found: #{header}"
    else
      varargs.first
    end
  end
end


  








  

    

      #field(header)  
      #field(header, offset)  
      #field(index)  
    

    Also known as: #[]
  



  

    

This method will return the field value by header or #index.  If a field is not found, nil is returned.



When provided, offset ensures that a header match occurs on or later than the offset index.  You can use this to find duplicate headers, without resorting to hard-coding exact indices.

end


  








  

    #field?(data)  ⇒ Boolean

    #fields(*headers_and_or_indices)  
    Also known as: #values_at
  



  

    

This method accepts any number of arguments which can be headers, indices, Ranges of either, or two-element Arrays containing a header and offset. Each argument will be replaced with a field lookup as described in Row.field().



If called with no arguments, all fields are returned.
