From: "rosenfeld (Rodrigo Rosenfeld Rosas)" Date: 2013-08-09T22:08:56+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:56490] [CommonRuby - Feature #8643] Add Binding.from_hash Issue #8643 has been updated by rosenfeld (Rodrigo Rosenfeld Rosas). I don't quite understand how that would help me, Koichi. How could I use #8761 to get the same result as the example in the description? ERB.new(IO.read 'template.erb').result Binding.from_hash(template_local: 'example') My current alternative is: ERB.new(IO.read 'template.erb').result OpenStruct.new(template_local: 'example'){ binding } How would #8761 make it easier for me? ---------------------------------------- Feature #8643: Add Binding.from_hash https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8643#change-41039 Author: rosenfeld (Rodrigo Rosenfeld Rosas) Status: Open Priority: Normal Assignee: ko1 (Koichi Sasada) Category: Target version: Binding.from_hash would work like: class Binding def self.from_hash(hash) OpenStruct.new(hash){ binding } end end It would simplify things like: ERB.new(IO.read 'template.erb').result Binding.from_hash(template_local: 'example') Or if you need to eval some code in another process (JRuby, for instance) and need to pass some arguments to the eval code in a hash form. I didn't want to pollute Hash by adding Hash#to_binding. I believe Binding.from_hash is more appropriate. -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
