fromfrom

fromfrom is a LINQ inspired library to transform sequences of data.

Installation

npm install --save fromfrom

Documentation

Find it here.

Usage

The library exports only a single function, from. from wraps the given source data into a Sequence. Sequence has a wide range of chainable methods to operate and transform the sequence. The sequence can then be converted into a JS type.

For example

import { from } from "fromfrom";

// Transform an array of users
const users = [
  { id: 1, name: "John", age: 31, active: true },
  { id: 2, name: "Jane", age: 32, active: false },
  { id: 3, name: "Luke", age: 33, active: false },
  { id: 4, name: "Mary", age: 34, active: true },
];

from(users)
  .filter(user => user.active)
  .sortByDescending(user => user.age)
  .toArray();
// Returns
// [
//   { id: 4, name: "Mary", age: 34, active: true },
//   { id: 1, name: "John", age: 31, active: true }
// ]

Features

• Familiar method names - Even though it's LINQ inspired, uses familiar method names from JS.
• Supports all main JS types - Works with arrays, objects, maps, sets, and objects that implement the iterable protocol.
• No dependencies - Guarantees small size.
• Type safe - Written in TypeScript. Type definitions included.
• Deferred execution - The execution of the sequence is deferred until you begin consuming the sequence.
• Fully tested - 100% test coverage.
