Docs

Auto generated from TSDocs.

Array

Utility functions for working with arrays.

toArray

Convert a single value or array of values into an array.

toArray(1); // returns [1]
toArray([1, 2, 3]); // returns [1, 2, 3]

take

Take the first n elements of an array.

take([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], 2); // returns [1, 2]
take(["a", "b", "c", "d", "e"], 3); // returns ['a', 'b', 'c']

uniq

Remove duplicate values from an array. Primites works as usual, objects are compared by value.

uniq([1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4]); // returns [1, 2, 3, 4]
uniq(["a", "a", "b", "c"]); // returns ['a', 'b', 'c']

// objects are compared by value
const a = { name: "Alex", age: 20 };
const b = { name: "Alex", age: 15 };
const c = { name: "Bony", age: 5 };
const d = { name: "Bony", age: 5 };

uniq([a, b, c, d]); // returns [a, b, c]

uniqBy

Remove duplicate values from an array by a key. Can also take a custom function that receives the item to choose the value to compare by.

const a = { name: "Alex", age: 20 };
const b = { name: "Alex", age: 15 };

// compare by a single key
uniqBy([a, b], "name"); // returns [a]
uniqBy([a, b], "age"); // returns [a, b]

// compare by a custom function
uniqBy([a, b], item => item.name); // returns [a]
uniqBy([a, b], item => item.age); // returns [a, b]

shuffle

Shuffle the elements of an array. Creates a new array with the elements of the original array in a random order.

shuffle([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]); // returns [2, 4, 1, 5, 3]
shuffle(["a", "b", "c", "d", "e"]); // returns ['b', 'd', 'a', 'e', 'c']

chunk

includes(values, valueToCheck); // returns true

if (includes(values, valueToCheck)) {
    // valueToCheck is now of type "a" | "b" | "c"
}

zip

memoizedAdd(1, 3); // returns 4 and caches the result
memoizedAdd(1, 3); // returns 4 from the cache

raise

Creates a function that raises and error with the provided message. Makes it a bit easier to use in some cases.

raise("Something went wrong");

exhaustiveCheck

Check that a value is of type never. Useful for checking that a switch statement is exhaustive in TypeScript.

type Foo = "a" | "b";

switch (foo) {
    case "a":
        // do something
        break;
    default:
        exhaustiveCheck(foo); // raises an error
}

invariant

Check that a value is not falsy. Useful for narrowing types in TypeScript.

const person: Person | undefined = getPerson();
invariant(person, "Person does not exist"); // person is now of type Person if it exists

const person: Person | undefined = undefined;
invariant(person, "Person does not exist"); // raises an error

produce

Produce a new object from an existing object without mutating the original object. Uses structured cloning to create a deep clone of the object. Works with non-primitive types like arrays, maps, sets and objects. A simple version of immer.

// original version
const person = { name: "John", age: 30 };
const updatedPerson = produce(person, draft => {
    draft.age = 31;
});

console.log(person.age); // 30
console.log(updatedPerson.age); // 31

// curried version
const producePerson = produce((draft: Person) => {
    draft.age = 31;
});

const person = { name: "John", age: 30 };
const updatedPerson = producePerson(person);

console.log(person.age); // 30
console.log(updatedPerson.age); // 31

// curried version in React
const [person, setPerson] = useState({ name: "John", age: 30 });

setPerson(
    produce(draft => {
        draft.age = 31;
    })
);

Produces a random number between min and max (inclusive). If only one argument is provided a number between 0 and the given number is returned. If floating is true, or either min or max are floats, a floating-point number is returned instead of an integer.

random(0, 5); // 2
random(5); // 2
random(5, true); // 2.123876376
random(0, 5, true); // 2.123876376

parseNumber

Parse a string into a number. If the string is empty or cannot be parsed, undefined is returned.

parseNumber("1"); // 1
parseNumber("1.5"); // 1.5
parseNumber("1.5.5"); // undefined
parseNumber(""); // undefined

Object

Utility functions for working with objects. Both wrappers and custom functions.

getProperty

Returns the value at path of object. If the resolved value is undefined, the defaultValue is returned in its place. Undefined will be returned if the path is not found or on failure. Wrapper around the "dot-prop" library.

const obj = { a: { b: { c: "d" } } };

getProperty(obj, "a.b.c"); // => "d"
getProperty(obj, "a.b"); // => { c: "d" }

getProperty({ a: [{ b: "c" }] }, "a[0].b"); // => "c"
getProperty({ a: [{ b: "c" }] }, "a[1].b"); // => undefined

setProperty

Sets the value at path of object. If a portion of path doesn't exist, it's created. Arrays are created for missing index properties while objects are created for all other missing properties. Use deleteProperty to remove property values. Wrapper around the "dot-prop" library.

const obj = { a: { b: { c: "d" } } };

setProperty(obj, "a.b.c", "hello"); // => { a: { b: { c: "hello" } } }
setProperty(obj, "a", hello); // => { a: "hello" }
setProperty({}, "a.b", "hello"); // => { a: { b: "hello" } }

hasProperty

Checks if object has a property at path. If the resolved value is undefined, false is returned. Wrapper around the "dot-prop" library.

const obj = { a: { b: { c: "d" } } };
hasProperty(obj, "a.b.c"); // => true
hasProperty(obj, "a.b"); // => true
hasProperty(obj, "a.b.c.d"); // => false

deleteProperty

Deletes the property at path of object. Wrapper around the "dot-prop" library.

const obj = { a: { b: { c: "d" } } };

deleteProperty(obj, "a.b.c"); // => true
deleteProperty(obj, "a.b"); // => true
deleteProperty(obj, "a.b.c.d"); // => false

objectKeys

Strictly typed version of Object.keys. Returns an array of keys of the object.

const obj = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 };
objectKeys(obj); // => ["a", "b", "c"]
objectKeys({}); // => []

objectValues

Strictly typed version of Object.values. Returns an array of values of the object.

const obj = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 };
objectValues(obj); // => [1, 2, 3]
objectValues({}); // => []

objectEntries

Strictly typed version of Object.entries. Returns an array of key-value pairs of the object.

const obj = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 };
objectEntries(obj); // => [["a", 1], ["b", 2], ["c", 3]]
objectEntries({}); // => []

merge

Deeply merges two or more objects. The last object in the arguments list overwrites previous values. No mutation. Uses the deepmerge library.

const obj1 = { a: 1 };
const obj2 = { a: 2 };
merge(obj1, obj2); // => { a: 2 }

const obj1 = { a: { b: 1 } };
const obj2 = { a: { c: 2 } };
merge(obj1, obj2); // => { a: { b: 1, c: 2 } }

const obj1 = { a: { b: 1 } };
const obj2 = { a: { b: 2 } };
const obj3 = { a: { b: 3 } };
merge(obj1, obj2, obj3); // => { a: { b: 3 } }

clone

Deeply clones an object. No mutation.

const obj = { a: { b: 1 } };
const cloned = clone(obj);
cloned.a.b = 2;
console.log(obj.a.b); // => 1

defaults

Used for setting default values. Deeply merges two objects. No mutation. The first object is the partial one, and the second object is the default one. If a value is already set in the partial object, it will not be overwritten.

const obj1 = { a: 1 };
const obj2 = { a: 2 };
defaults(obj1, obj2); // => { a: 1 }
defaults(obj2, obj1); // => { a: 2 }

flip

Flips the keys and values of an object. If the object has duplicate values, the last key will be used.

const obj = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3 };
flip(obj); // => { 1: "a", 2: "b", 3: "c" }

Result

A result type that can be used to return a value or an error.

Result

A simple result type that can be used to return a value or an error.

const result = Result.ok(1); // or Result.error
if (result.success) {
    console.log(result.data);
} else {
    console.log(result.message);
}

const error = Result.error("error message");
console.log(error.message);

createResult

Create a wrapper around the default Result type. Making it possible to import the Result type from your own module. Without any custom error data and types. Use createResultWithErrorData for custom error data and types.

const OwnResult = createResult();

const result = OwnResult.ok(1); // or OwnResult.error
if (result.success) {
    console.log(result.data);
} else {
    console.log(result.message);
}

createResultWithErrorData

Create a custom Result type with error data and types.

type MyErrorDataMap = {
    network: { endpoint: string; statusCode: number };
    internal: { errorId: string; details: string };
};
type DefaultError = "UnknownError";

const OwnResult = createResult<MyErrorDataMap, DefaultError>();

const error = OwnResult.error("error message", {
    type: "network",
    data: { endpoint: "http://example.com", statusCode: 404 },
});

if (error.type === "network") {
    console.log(error.data.endpoint);
}

const error = OwnResult.error("error message");
console.log(error.type); // type "UnknownError"

createTryExpressionResult

Create a custom Result type based on try expressions, with a Go-like syntax. Used to return a value or an error. Return value is a TryExpressionResult tuple with an error and a value.

const Result = createTryExpressionResult();
const getResult = () => {
    if (something()) {
        return Result.ok(1);
    } else {
        return Result.error(new Error("error"));
    }
};

const [error, value] = getResult();
if (error) {
    console.log(error.message); // Error is defined
} else {
    console.log(value); // Value is defined
}

String

randomString

Generate a random string with the length provided, defaults to 16.

randomString(); // returns 'Fwf4552Dd2'

wildcardMatch

Check if a string matches a wildcard pattern. Uses the "wildcard-match" library.

wildcardMatch("/foo/bar", "/foo/*"); // returns true
wildcardMatch("/foo/bar", "/foo/bar"); // returns true
wildcardMatch("/foo/bar", "/foo/bar/*"); // returns false

ensurePrefix

template("hello {0} {1}", "world", "foo"); // returns 'hello world foo'
template("hello {0} {1}", "world"); // returns 'hello world {1}'

template("hello {{name}}", { name: "world" }); // returns 'hello world'
template("hello {{name}}, I am {{me}}", { name: "world", me: "Kent" }); // returns 'hello world, I am Kent'
template("hello {{name}}", { name: "world", foo: "bar" }); // returns 'hello world'
template("hello {{name}}", { foo: "bar" }); // returns 'hello {{name}}'

truncate("hello world", 5); // returns 'hello...'
truncate("hello world", 5, "...more"); // returns 'hello...more'
truncate("hello world", 100); // returns 'hello world'
truncate("hello world", 5, ""); // returns 'hello'
truncate("hello world", 5, "..."); // returns 'hello...'
