Pimp my Ruby

M

Matthew Hinton

Hello from a Ruby noob.

I wrote a script to read in my Bloglines subscriptions and my
NetNewsWire subscriptions. The script compares to the two opml files
and any Bloglines subscription that is also in NNW is ignored. The
subscriptions that are left are written out to an opml file. If anyone
has read Wil Shipley's blog and his pimp my code series will understand
right away what I am asking for. I would like those with more Ruby
experience to look over my code and critic it.

Fire away!



class Merge
def initialize(filename1, filename2)
read_in(filename1, filename2)
@subs1 = extract_subscriptions(@opml1)
@subs2 = extract_subscriptions(@opml2)
end

def all_subs
diff1 = @subs1.keys - @subs2.keys
diff2 = @subs2.keys - @subs1.keys
tmp = diff1 + diff2
@all_subs = find_subs_titles(tmp)
end

def diff_subs
if (@subs1.length < @subs2.length)
small = @subs1
large = @subs2
else
small = @subs2
large = @subs1
end
tmp = small.keys - large.keys
@diff_subs = find_subs_titles(tmp)
end

def find_subs_titles(subs)
subs_titles = Hash.new
subs.each do |xmlUrl|
title = @subs1[xmlUrl] if (@subs1[xmlUrl] != nil)
title = @subs2[xmlUrl] if (@subs2[xmlUrl] != nil)
subs_titles[xmlUrl] = title
end
return subs_titles
end

def read_in(filename1, filename2)
file = File.open(filename1, "r")
@opml1 = file.readlines
file.close
file = File.open(filename2, "r")
@opml2 = file.readlines
file.close

file = File.open("diff_subs.opml", "w")
# write out opml
file.puts %q{
