I have an array returned by the function Search.all :

I want to count the number of occurences of the same elements based on “name”. I know how to find the occurences in an array like this one : ['a', 'b', 'a'] with
favoris.inject(Hash.new(0)) { |h,v| h[v] += 1; h }
But how can use that in the previous array?
