Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

rtrim-array

Removes specified values from the end of an array. Analogous to a right-trim operation for strings, except this module tests array elements instead of string characters.

Installation

Requires Node.js 6.0.0 or above.

npm i rtrim-array

API

The module exports a single function.

Parameters

  1. Bindable: arr (Array or Array-like): The array that might have ending elements to be removed.
  2. Optional: trim (any): A Function that tests elements (returning true if the element should be trimmed), or an Array of elements to be trimmed, or any single value that should be trimmed. If this argument is omitted, then undefined will be trimmed.

Return Value

A copy of arr, with any trimmable elements removed from the end.

Examples

By default, rtrimArray() removes undefined elements from the end of an array.

const rtrimArray = require('rtrim-array')
rtrimArray([1, 2, 3, undefined, undefined]) // [1, 2, 3]

This operation is distinct from that of Array.prototype.filter() because rtrimArray() only removes from the end. If a trimmable value (in this case, undefined) is found at the beginning or in the middle of the array, it will not be removed:

rtrimArray([1, undefined, 3, undefined, undefined]) // [1, undefined, 3]

If you want to trim something besides undefined, provide it as the second argument:

rtrimArray([1, 2, 3, undefined, null], null) // [1, 2, 3, undefined]

If you want more than one value to be trimmed, put the values in an array and provide it as the second argument:

rtrimArray([1, 2, 3, null, false, null], [false, null]) // [1, 2, 3]

To do more advanced filtering, provide a callback. Each element on the end will be passed to the callback, and if the callback returns true, the element will be trimmed. If the callback returns false, the trimming will stop. In this example, the callback causes the module to trim numbers from the end, stopping when it reaches the string:

rtrimArray([1, '2', 3, 4, 5], el => typeof el === 'number') // [1, '2']

If every element in the array is trimmable, an empty array will be returned:

rtrimArray([undefined]) // []

The module also supports the bind operator:

const rtrim = require('rtrim-array')
[1, 2, 3, undefined, undefined]::rtrim() // [1, 2, 3]
[1, 2, 3, undefined, null]::rtrim(null)  // [1, 2, 3, undefined]
