Convert a hash into a struct

Since Hash key order is guaranteed in Ruby 1.9+:

Struct.new(*h.keys).new(*h.values)

If you already have a struct defined, and you want to instantiate an instance with a hash:

Person = Struct.new(:first_name, :last_name, :age)

person_hash = { first_name: "Foo", last_name: "Bar", age: 29 }

person = Person.new(*person_hash.values_at(*Person.members))

=> #<struct Person first_name="Foo", last_name="Bar", age=29>

If it doesn't specifically have to be a Struct and instead can be an OpenStruct:

pry(main)> require 'ostruct'
pry(main)> s = OpenStruct.new(h)
=> #<OpenStruct a=1, b=2>
pry(main)> puts s.a, s.b
