Among Ruby Facets most common additions were an assortment of Hash-like classes. To better support this collection of libraries it was deemed prudent to create a side project specifically for them. Hence the “Facets” Hashery.
Included in this collection are the widely used OrderedHash, the related but more featured Dictionary class, a number of open classes, similar to the standard OpenStruct, plus a few variations of the standard Hash and a few other yummy morsels.
Please see the HISTORY file.
For usage information, see the individual library files included in this collection.
To install with RubyGems simply open a console and type:
$ sudo gem install hashery
Tarball packages are available for manual site installations via Ruby Setup.
Developers who have contributed code to the project include:
Kirk Haines
Joshua Hull
Robert Klemme
Jan Molic
George Moschovitis
Jeena Paradies
Erik Veenstra
Don't be a lump on a log. See an issue? Have a suggestion? Want to help? Well git in there!
Hashery uses QED and Lemon test frameworks. The QED framework to create well tested high-level documentation. Run the QED specs via:
$ qed -Ilib demo/
Lemon is used to create low-level unit tests. Run these via the RubyTest univeral test harness.
$ rubytest -Ilib test/
Hashery's repository is hosted on GitHub. If you'd like to offer up a fix or feature, fork the repo and submit a pull request (preferably in a topic branch). I assume you have heard all the talk about proper practices, so I won't bug you with it yet again.
Yes, we FOSS programmers need to eat too! ;-) No seriously, any help you can offer goes a long way toward continued development of Rubyworks projects, including Hashery. See the upper right-hand corner on the Rubyworks hompage. Thanks.
