[Israel.pm] Importing values from a 2D hash into another 2D hash

[Meir Guttman]

Thanks Micha!

Once again, CPAN to the rescue. But how do you find the right module???

As for this Hash::Merge package, it seems a cannon, and all I needed was to kill a mosquito… 

Regards to all,

Meir

maybe:

use Hash::Merge qw(merge);
%combined_hash = %{ merge( \%combined_hash, \%added_hash ) };


Cheers,
Micha

Thank you Sawyer and Ran. Intriguing… 

But I was thinking about something akin to how one combines two simple hashes as:

%combined_hash = (%combined_hash, %added_hash);

(This of course overwrites same-key records, but in my application this is a “feature” and a bonus... J)

My problem was that I was lost and couldn’t figure out how to deal with all these references to anonymous inner hashes. L

Returning a new value instead of mutating the sub arguments:

sub combine_values {
  my $old = shift;
  my $new  = shift;
  return map {$_ => {
      %{ $old->{$_} },
      %{ $new->{$_} || {} }
  }} keys %$old;
}
