VirtusConvert

VirtusConvert allows you to convert a deeply nested tree of Virtus* or other objects that respond to attributes to nested tree of hashes and arrays

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'virtus_convert'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install virtus_convert

Usage

jack = Person.new(name:'Jack', address:'123 Fake Street' )
order = Order.new(customer: jack, total:1_000_000)

VirtusConvert.new(order).to_hash #=> {customer:{name:'Jack', address:'123 Fake Street'}, total: 1000000}

Options

You can optionally pass in a options hash to make things more fancy like

reject_nils

Set reject nils to true tor reject nils

jack = Person.new(name: 'Jack', address: nil, items: [1,2,nil,3])
VirtusConvert.new(jack, reject_nils: true).to_hash #=> {name: 'Jack', items: [1,2,3] }

Look in the specs/ folder for more example use cases
