NodeJS / Javascript Toolkit

This is a set of extensions for native objects. Almost all native objects will probably have usefull extensions such as formatting a number or comparing dates or even padding a string.

Before suggesting any extension, check if native objects don't have them already. For example, Array.map and Array.filter are already in the core.

Here is a list (possibly not up-to-date) of the extensions:

Array

• .first([ n ])
• .last([ n ])
• .without(v1, .., vN)
• .compact()
• .unique()
• .sum()
• .product()
• .grep(/re/)
• .min()
• .max()

Date

• .addHour(n)
• .addDay(n)
• .addWeek(n)
• .addMonth(n)
• .addYear(n)
• .before(date)
• .after(date)
• .between(start, end)
• .diff(date)

Function

• .defer([ms])
• .curry(arg1, .., argN)

Math

• .random([ start [, end ]])

Number

• .pow(n)
• .odd()
• .even()
• .abs()
• .ceil()
• .floor()
• .round([n])
• .format([ decimals [, decimal_separator [, thousands_separator ]]])
• .duration([ format ])

String

• .words([ separators ])
• .count(needle, [ offset [, len ]])
• .csv([ delimiter_char, [ enclosure_char, [ escape_char ]]])
• .repeat([ n ])
• .reverse()
• .ord([ n ])
• .trim()
• .ltrim()
• .rtrim()
• .pad([ length, [ padding_string, [ type ]]])
• .shuffle()
• .chunk([ length, [ delimiter ]])
