Hash::Rename - Rename hash keys
use Hash::Rename; my %hash = ( '-noforce' => 1, scheme => 'http' ); hash_rename %hash, code => sub { s/^(?!-)/-/ };
Using this module you can rename a hash's keys in place.
This function is automatically exported. It takes a hash to rename and another hash of instructions on how to rename they keys.
The syntax is like this:
hash_rename %hash, instruction1 => 'value1', instruction2 => 'value2';
The following instructions are supported:
prepend
hash_rename %hash, prepend => '-';
The given value is prepended to each hash key.
append
hash_rename %hash, append => '-';
The given value is appended to each hash key.
code
hash_rename %hash, code => sub { s/^(?!-)/-/ };
Each hash key is localized to $_ and subjected to the code. Its new value is the result of $_ after the code has been executed.
$_
strict
If present and set to a true value, the resulting keys are checked for duplicates. hash_rename() will die if it detects a duplicate resulting hash key. They keys of the hash to change are processed in alphabetical order.
hash_rename()
recurse
Each hash value that is itself a hash reference is renamed with the same arguments as the original hash.
If several instructions are given, they are processed in the order in which they are described above. So you can have:
hash_rename %hash, prepend => '-', append => '=';
