Okay, I thought my earlier explanation would be sufficient to help you
achieve your goal, but I'll try to explain further:
You are starting with this:
"myem...@first.com,My Name"; "myem...@second.com,My Name"
I can't guess what you want in your final result. There are multiple
ways to split and store this. So I'll explain what I would do in this
case, assuming I want to keep all the information in the original
string:
# Start by splitting the string at the semicolons:
arr1 = params[ :email ][ :email ].split( ";" )
# Result:
[ "myem...@first.com,My Name", "myem...@second.com,My Name" ]
# Declare an array to store the final data
emails = []
# Enumerate the array we split
arr1.each do |str|
# For each string in arr1 split at the comma
arr2 = str.split(",")
# Put the address and name in a hash (keyed by email address in this
case)
h[arr2[0]] = arr2[1]
# Append the hash to the final array
emails << h
end
# Final result:
[ { "myem...@first.com": "My Name" }, { "myem...@second.com", "My Name"
} ]
There might be some shortcut to the above procedure, but I wanted to
show all the individual steps to be clear what's happening.
As I said before, this is only one possible way to store the results
keeping all the original data. You'll have to decide what is best for
your particular case.
