Usage
Create a sequence
import Enumerable = require("nativescript-enumerable");
// from a list of values / objects with variable length
var seq1 = Enumerable.create(1, 'MK', true, null, {});
// from an array / list
var seq2 = Enumerable.fromArray([11, 22, 33, 44]);
// from object
var seq3 = Enumerable.fromObject({
MK: 23979,
TM: 5979
});
// range of numbers: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
var seq4 = Enumerable.range(2, 5);
// 50979 'TM' strings
var seq5 = Enumerable.repeat('TM', 50979);
Work with them
var seq = Enumerable.create(5979, 23979, null, '23979', 1781, 241279);
var newSeq = seq.where((x) => x !== null) // remove all elements that are (null)
.skip(1) // skip one element (5979)
.take(3) // take next remaining 3 elements (23979, 23979, 1781)
.distinct() // remove duplicates
.select((x) => "" + x) // convert to strings
.order(); // order by element ascending
newSeq.each((item) => {
// [0] 1781
// [1] 23979
console.log(item);
});
Most methods are chainable as in .NET context.
Functions and lambda expression
Many methods require one or more function.
Instead using a function like
.where(function(x) {
return x !== null;
})
you can write
.where('x => x !== null')
instead.
Documentation
The full documentation with all functions and methods can be found on readme.io.
Demo app
The demo app contains examples to all functions and methods.
It also contains a code editor where you can enter own code and run it!
The wiki describes how it works.
Examples
Filters
// distinct()
// 1, 2, 4, 3
Enumerable.create(1, 2, 4, 2, 3)
.distinct();
// except()
// 2.0, 2.1, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5
Enumerable.create(2.0, 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5)
.except([2.2]);
// intersect()
// 26, 30
Enumerable.create(44, 26, 92, 30, 71, 38)
.intersect([30, 59, 83, 47, 26, 4, 3]);
// ofType()
// '2', 'Tanja'
Enumerable.create(1, '2', 2, 'Tanja', 3)
.ofType('string'); // typeof x == 'string'
// union()
// 5, 3, 9, 7, 8, 6, 4, 1, 0
Enumerable.create(5, 3, 9, 7, 5, 9, 3, 7)
.union([8, 3, 6, 4, 4, 9, 1, 0]);
// where()
// 1, 2, 3
Enumerable.create(1, 2, 3, 4)
.where((x) => x < 4);
Sort elements
// orderBy(), thenBy()
//
// "apple", "grape", "mango", "banana",
// "orange", "blueberry", "raspberry", "passionfruit"
Enumerable.create("grape", "passionfruit", "banana", "mango",
"orange", "raspberry", "apple", "blueberry")
.orderBy((x) => x.length) // complement: orderByDescending()
.thenBy((x) => x); // complement: thenByDescending()
// shorter: then()
// reverse()
// 4, 3, 2, 1
Enumerable.create(1, 2, 3, 4)
.reverse();
Take / skip elements
// skip()
// 3, 4
Enumerable.create(0, 1, 2, 3, 4)
.skip(3);
// skipLast()
// 0, 1, 2, 3
Enumerable.create(0, 1, 2, 3, 4)
.skipLast();
// skipWhile()
// 55, 666, 77
Enumerable.create(22, 33, 44, 55, 666, 77)
.skipWhile((x) => x < 50);
// take()
// 0, 1, 2
Enumerable.create(0, 1, 2, 3, 4)
.take(3);
// takeWhile()
// 22, 33, 44
Enumerable.create(22, 33, 44, 55)
.takeWhile((x) => x < 50);
Get one element
// elementAt()
// 33
Enumerable.create(11, 22, 33, 44)
.elementAt(2);
// elementAtOrDefault()
// 'TM'
Enumerable.create(11, 22, 33, 44)
.elementAtOrDefault(4, 'TM'); // out of range
// first()
// 11
Enumerable.create(11, 22, 33, 44)
.first();
// firstOrDefault()
// 'MK'
Enumerable.create()
.firstOrDefault('MK');
// last()
// 44
Enumerable.create(11, 22, 33, 44)
.last();
// lastOrDefault()
// 'PZ'
Enumerable.create()
.lastOrDefault('PZ');
// single()
// EXCEPTION, because we have more than one element
Enumerable.create(11, 22, 33, 44)
.single();
// singleOrDefault()
// 11
Enumerable.create(11)
.singleOrDefault('YS');
All methods with NO OrDefault
suffix will throw exceptions if no element was found.
You also can use a function as first argument for all of these methods that works as filter / condition:
// first()
// 22
Enumerable.create(11, 22, 33, 44)
.first((x) => x >= 20);
Accumulators
// aggregate()
// "Marcel Joachim Kloubert"
Enumerable.create('Marcel', 'Joachim', 'Kloubert')
.aggregate((result: string, x: string) => {
return result += " " + x;
});
// average()
// 2.5
Enumerable.create(1, 2, 3, 4)
.average();
// sum()
// 10
Enumerable.create(1, 2, 3, 4)
.sum();
Minimum / maximum values
// max()
// 3
Enumerable.create(1, 3, 2)
.max();
// min()
// 1
Enumerable.create(2, 3, 1, 2)
.min();
