How to find a hash key containing a matching value

Question

Given I have the below clients hash, is there a quick ruby way (without having to write a multi-line script) to obtain the key given I want to match the cli

Answer 1

Another approach I would try is by using #map

clients.map{ |key, _| key if clients[key] == {"client_id"=>"2180"} }.compact 
#=> ["orange"]

This will return all occurences of given value. The underscore means that we don't need key's value to be carried around so that way it's not being assigned to a variable. The array will contain nils if the values doesn't match - that's why I put #compact at the end.
