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 @fatimaaltaf/lotide

Require it:

const _ = require('@fatimaaltaf/lotide');

Call it:

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

Documentation

The following functions are currently implemented:

• assertArraysEqual(actual, expected): takes in two arrays and console.logs an appropriate message to the console.
• assertEqual(actual, expected): series of success / failure messages printed to the console.
• assertObjectsEqual(actual, expected): helps easily test functions that return objects.
• countLetters(allLetters): takes in a collection of items and returns counts for a specific subset of those items.
• countOnly(actual, expected): takes in a collection of items and returns counts for a specific subset of those items.
• eqArrays(array1, array2): takes in two arrays and returns true or false, based on a perfect match.
• eqObjects(object1, object2): takes in two objects and returns true or false, based on a perfect match.
• findKey(obj, callback): helps search for a key on an object where its value matches a given value.
• findKeyByValue(bestShows, value): finds key in an object through the value.
• flatten(array): take in an array of arrays and returns a "flattened" version of the array.
• head(array): retrieves the first element from the array.
• letterPositions(sentence): returns all the indices (zero-based positions) in the string where each character is found.
• map(array, callback): callback function using map.
• middle(array): takes in an array and return the middle-most element(s) of the given array.
• tail(array): retrieves every element except the head (first element) of the array.
• takeUntil(array, callback): callback function.
• implementWithout(source, itemsToRemove): returns a subset of a given array, removing unwanted elements.
