perl - How to create recursive hash of hash ? (With unlimited deep)

Please, I try to create a complexe datastructure. I know how to do

$branch{'level1'}{'level2'}{'level3'}='leaf';

But I don't know how to create

$branch{'level1'}....{'levelN'}='leaf';

I try something like that :

$branch{'leaf'} = "1";
$branchREF = \%branch;
$branchtmp{'level3'} = $branchREF;

So I succefully get :

$VAR1 = 'level3';
$VAR2 = {
          'leaf' => '1'
        };

But for the next step, to do a recrusive N hash of hash, I try :

%branch = %branchtmp;

But the result is completly wrong... %branch is not what I'm expecting. To do my recursivity, I need to reuse my first %branch and not create a new one. How can I do please ?

I strongly recommend using an existing solution such as Data::Diver.

use Data::Diver qw( DiveVal );

my @keys = map "level$_", 1 .. 3;

my $branch = {};
DiveVal($branch, map $_, @keys) = 'leaf';
  -or-
my %branch;
DiveVal(\%branch, map $_, @keys) = 'leaf';

Obviously, it can be done without module too.

sub DiveVal :lvalue {
   my $p = shift;
   $p = ( $$p->{$_} ) for @_;
   $$p
}

my @keys = map "level$_", 1 .. 3;

my $branch;
DiveVal($branch, @keys) = 'leaf';
  -or-
my %branch;
DiveVal(\%branch, @keys) = 'leaf';

How my DiveVal works:

Pre-loop:          $p references $branch
After loop pass 0: $p references $branch->{level1}
After loop pass 1: $p references $branch->{level1}{level2}
After loop pass 2: $p references $branch->{level1}{level2}{level3}
Returned:          $branch->{level1}{level2}{level3}

The extra level of indirection has many benefits.

  • It removes the need to treat the last key specially.
  • It removes the need to create the hash before it's dereferenced.
  • It removes the need for the root to be a reference to a hash. Instead, any scalar can be the root, even an undefined one.
  • It makes it easy to extend DiveVal to support mixed array/hash structures.
