Instead of modifying the first paramater of deep_merge due to the use of the merge! function, instead use merge to return a copy of the merged object. This allows one to continue to use the original first parameter after the call to deep_merge.

Recursively merges two or more hashes together and returns the resulting hash.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
$hash1 = {'one' => 1, 'two' => 2, 'three' => { 'four' => 4 } }
|
|
$hash2 = {'two' => 'dos', 'three' => { 'five' => 5 } }
|
|
$merged_hash = deep_merge($hash1, $hash2)
|
|
# The resulting hash is equivalent to:
|
|
# $merged_hash = { 'one' => 1, 'two' => 'dos', 'three' => { 'four' => 4, 'five' => 5 } }
|
|
|
|
When there is a duplicate key that is a hash, they are recursively merged.
|
|
When there is a duplicate key that is not a hash, the key in the rightmost hash will "win."
