I need to create a HashMap of directory-to-file in scala while I list all files in the directory. How can I achieve this in scala?
val directoryToFile = awsClient.listFiles(uploadPath).collect {
case path if !path.endsWith("/") => {
path match {
// do some regex matching to get directory & file names
case regex(dir, date) => {
// NEED TO CREATE A HASH MAP OF dir -> date. How???
}
case _ => None
}
}
}
The method listFiles(path: String)
returns a Seq[String]
of absolute path of all files in the path
passed as argument to the function
Try to write more idiomatic Scala. Something like this:
val directoryToFile = (for {
path <- awsClient.listFiles(uploadPath)
if !path.endsWith("/")
regex(dir, date) <- regex.findFirstIn(path)
} yield dir -> date).sortBy(_._2).toMap
You can filter
and then foldLeft
:
val l = List("""/opt/file1.txt""", """/opt/file2.txt""")
val finalMap = l
.filter(!_.endsWith("/"))
.foldLeft(Map.empty[String, LocalDateTime])((map, s) =>
s match {
case regex(dir, date) => map + (dir -> date)
case _ => map
}
)
You can try something like this:
val regex = """(\d)-(\d)""".r
val paths = List("1-2", "3-4", "555")
for {
// Hint to Scala to produce specific type
_ <- Map("" -> "")
// Not sure why your !path.endsWith("/") is not part of regex
path@regex(a, b) <- paths
if path.startsWith("1")
} yield (a, b)
//> scala.collection.immutable.Map[String,String] = Map(1 -> 2)
Slightly more complicated if you need max
:
val regex = """(\d)-(\d)""".r
val paths = List("1-2", "3-4", "555", "1-3")
for {
(_, ps) <-
( for {
path@regex(a, b) <- paths
if path.startsWith("1")
} yield (a, b)
).groupBy(_._1)
} yield ps.maxBy(_._2)
//> scala.collection.immutable.Map[String,String] = Map(1 -> 3)
