Lotide

A mini clone of the Lodash library.

Purpose

BEWARE: This library was published for learning purposes. It is not intended for use in production-grade software.

This project was created and published by me as part of my learnings at Lighthouse Labs.

Usage

Install it:

npm install @s-brand5163/lotide

Require it:

const _ = require('@s-brand5163/lotide');

Call it:

const results = _.tail([1, 2, 3]) // => [2, 3]

Documentation

The following functions are currently implemented:

• assertArraysEqual(...): prints out true or false message to the console if two arrays are equal
• assertEqual(...): checks to see if two primitive data types are equal
• assertObjectsEqual(...): prints out true or false message to the console if two objects are equal
• countLetters(...): counts the letters in a string, not including spaces, and returns the number
• countOnly(...): counts the number of times a passed in string appears in an array and returns that number
• eqArrays(...): recursive function that returns true or false if two arrays are equal, works with nested arrays
• eqObjects(...): recursive function that returns true or false if two objects are equal, works with nested objects
• findKey(...): looks to see if a key is in an object and returns it if it is, or undefined if not
• findKeyByValue(...): looks to see if a value is in an object and then returns its key pairing, or undefined if not
• flatten(...): flattens an array with 2 layers of nested arrays and returns it
• head(...): returns the first item in an array
• map(...): takes in an array and callback, and executes that callback on every single item in an array and returns a new array with the changes made
• middle(...): returns the middle of an array, if its an even numbered array it returns the 2 middle items
• tail(...): returns an array with the first item removed
• takeUntil(...): takes in an array and callback (test function) and removes all of the items in the array until the callback test fails
• without(...): takes in an array and a variable you want to remove, and removes all of the items in the array that match that variable, returns the new array
