I wonder if you have how to pass parameters to a parameter method named via hash. It has to pass the parameters that remain for another function as in the following example?

params = {key: "value",key2: "value2"}
def func(key1: nil, key2: nil, **args)
    other_func **args
    ...
end
func params

Occurrence of the Rails problem:

#No controle
@session = SessionUser.new(params[:session_user].merge(session: session))

# classe SessionUser
def initialize(session: nil, email: nil, password: nil, **args)
    @session = session
    @email = email
    @password = password
end

Your example works.

It says that the number of arguments is wrong, it certainly considers the hash as a parameter only and if it were via array (*args) it would work, but this is not what I need

The syntax of hash ** is only valid from version 2.0 Ruby. Before that you should use a hash parameter explicitly.

I found the error, in case I passed a hash that possessed keys no symbols, the same problem was solved in this issue :

In my case, using Rails I can use the '.symbolize_keys' method for those who are only using Ruby it is also possible to solve this way:

my_hash.inject({}){|memo,(k,v)| memo[k.to_sym] = v; memo}
