Active Support extends slicing to hashes: - -```ruby -{a: 1, b: 2, c: 3}.slice(:a, :c) -# => {:a=>1, :c=>3} - -{a: 1, b: 2, c: 3}.slice(:b, :X) -# => {:b=>2} # non-existing keys are ignored -``` - -If the receiver responds to `convert_key` keys are normalized: - -```ruby -{a: 1, b: 2}.with_indifferent_access.slice("a") -# => {:a=>1} -``` - -NOTE. Slicing may come in handy for sanitizing option hashes with a white list of keys. - -There's also `slice!` which in addition to perform a slice in place returns what's removed: +The method `slice!` replaces the hash with only the given keys and returns a hash containing the removed key/value pairs. ```ruby hash = {a: 1, b: 2} |
