合并 Map <string, list<string> Java 8 Stream</string,>

Question

I would like to merge two Map with JAVA 8 Stream:

Map<String, List<String>> mapGlobal = new HashMap<String, List<String>>();
Map<String, List<String>> mapAdded = new HashMap<String, List<String>>();

I try to use this implementation:

mapGlobal = Stream.of(mapGlobal, mapAdded)
                .flatMap(m -> m.entrySet().stream())
                .collect(Collectors.groupingBy(Map.Entry::getKey,
                        Collectors.mapping(Map.Entry::getValue,        
                                           Collectors.toList())
                ));

However, this implementation only create a result like:

Map<String, List<Object>>

If one key is not contained in the mapGlobal , it would be added as a new key with the corresponding List of String. If the key is duplicated in mapGlobal and mapAdded , both list of values will be merge as: A = {1, 3, 5, 7} and B = {1, 2, 4, 6} then A ∪ B = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7} .

Answer 1

You can do this by iterating over all the entries in mapAdded and merging them into mapGlobal .

The following iterates over the entries of mapAdded by calling forEach(action) where the action consumes the key and value of each entry. For each entry, we call merge(key, value, remappingFunction) on mapGlobal : this will either create the entry under the key k and value v if the key didn't exist or it will invoke the given remapping function if they already existed. This function takes the 2 lists to merge, which in this case, are first added to a TreeSet to ensure both unique and sorted elements and converted back into a list:

mapAdded.forEach((k, v) -> mapGlobal.merge(k, v, (v1, v2) -> {
    Set<String> set = new TreeSet<>(v1);
    set.addAll(v2);
    return new ArrayList<>(set);
}));

If you want to run that potentially in parallel, you can create a Stream pipeline by getting the entrySet() and calling parallelStream() on it. But then, you need to make sure to use a map that supports concurrency for mapGlobal , like a ConcurrentHashMap .

ConcurrentMap<String, List<String>> mapGlobal = new ConcurrentHashMap<>();
// ...
mapAdded.entrySet().parallelStream().forEach(e -> mapGlobal.merge(e.getKey(), e.getValue(), (v1, v2) -> {
    Set<String> set = new TreeSet<>(v1);
    set.addAll(v2);
    return new ArrayList<>(set);
}));

Answer 2

Using foreach over Map can be used to merge given arraylist.

    public Map<String, ArrayList<String>> merge(Map<String, ArrayList<String>> map1, Map<String, ArrayList<String>> map2) {
    Map<String, ArrayList<String>> map = new HashMap<>();
    map.putAll(map1);

    map2.forEach((key , value) -> {
        //Get the value for key in map.
        ArrayList<String> list = map.get(key);
        if (list == null) {
            map.put(key,value);
        }
        else {
            //Merge two list together
            ArrayList<String> mergedValue = new ArrayList<>(value);
            mergedValue.addAll(list);
            map.put(key , mergedValue);
        }
    });
    return map;
}

Answer 3

The original implementation doesn't create result like Map<String, List<Object>> , but Map<String, List<List<String>>> . You need additional Stream pipeline on it to produce Map<String, List<String>> .

Answer 4

Map<String, List<String>> result = new HashMap<String, List<String>>();

Map<String, List<String>> map1 = new HashMap<String, List<String>>();
Map<String, List<String>> map2 = new HashMap<String, List<String>>();

for(Map.Entry<String, List<String>> entry: map1.entrySet()) {
   result.put(entry.getKey(), new ArrayList<>(entry.getValue());
}

for(Map.Entry<String, List<String>> entry: map2.entrySet()) {
   if(result.contains(entry.getKey())){
       result.get(entry.getKey()).addAll(entry.getValue());
   } else {
       result.put(entry.getKey(), new ArrayList<>(entry.getValue());
   }

}

This solution creates independent result map without any reference to map1 and map2 lists.

Using StreamEx

Map<String, List<String>> mergedMap =
        EntryStream.of(mapGlobal)
                .append(EntryStream.of(mapAdded))
                .toMap((v1, v2) -> {
                    List<String> combined = new ArrayList<>();
                    combined.addAll(v1);
                    combined.addAll(v2);
                    return combined;
                });

If you have even more maps to merge just append to the stream

                .append(EntryStream.of(mapAdded2))
                .append(EntryStream.of(mapAdded3))

Here is the full code to Iterate Two HashMap which have values stored in the form of list. Merging all the key and values in first hashmap. Below is the example.

  HashMap<String, List<String>> hmap1 = new HashMap<>();
        List<String> list1 = new LinkedList<>();
        list1.add("000");
        list1.add("111");
        List<String> list2 = new LinkedList<>();
        list2.add("222");
        list2.add("333");
        hmap1.put("Competitor", list1);
        hmap1.put("Contractor", list2);
        //  System.out.println(hmap1);


        HashMap<String, List<String>> hmap2 = new HashMap<>();
        List<String> list3 = new LinkedList<>();
        list3.add("aaa");
        list3.add("bbb");
        List<String> list4 = new LinkedList<>();
        list4.add("ccc");
        list4.add("ddd");
        hmap2.put("Competitor", list3);
        hmap2.put("Contractor", list4);


//******* Java 8 Feature *****
 hmap1.forEach((k, v) -> hmap2.merge(k, v, (v1, v2) -> {
            List<String> li = new LinkedList<>(v1);
            li.addAll(v2);
            hmap2.put(k,li);
            return new ArrayList<>(li);
        }));
        System.out.println(hmap2);

Output - {Competitor=[aaa, bbb, 000, 111], Contractor=[ccc, ddd, 222, 333]}
