delete<T = any>(url: string, options: MutationOptions): Promise<AxiosResponse<T>>- Sends a DELETE request. Supports
AxiosRequestConfigandonSuccess/onErrorcallbacks ifcache = truein theAgentOptions.
- Sends a DELETE request. Supports
get<T = any>(url: string, options: QueryOptions): Promise<AxiosResponse<T>>- Sends a GET request. Supports
AxiosRequestConfigand caching withqueryKeyandexpireInifcache = truein theAgentOptions.
- Sends a GET request. Supports
patch<T = any>(url: string, data?: unknown, options: MutationOptions): Promise<AxiosResponse<T>>- Sends a PATCH request.
post<T = any>(url: string, data?: unknown, options: MutationOptions): Promise<AxiosResponse<T>>- Sends a POST request.
put<T = any>(url: string, data?: unknown, options: MutationOptions): Promise<AxiosResponse<T>>- Sends a PUT request.
upload(url: string, data: FormData, onUploadProgress?: (e: AxiosProgressEvent) => void): Promise<AxiosResponse>- Uploads a file using a POST request with
multipart/form-datafor file uploads.
- Uploads a file using a POST request with
download(url: string, fileName: string, domElement?: HTMLElement): Promise<AxiosResponse>- Downloads a file using a GET request and triggers a download in the browser.
Cache
When cache: true is set, GET requests are cached using a queryKey (defaults to the URL). The cache supports:
get(key: string): QueryData- Retrieves a cached response.
getAll(): [string, QueryData][]- Returns all cache entries.
has(key: string): boolean- Checks if a key exists in the cache.
set(key: string, data: QueryData): Map<string, QueryData>- Sets a cache entry with a response, timestamp, and expiration.
delete(key: string): boolean- Removes a cache entry.
invalidateQuery(queryKey?: string | string[]): void- Invalidates cache entries by key or prefix.
Cache entries expire based on the expireIn option (e.g., '1s', '5m') using the isDateYoungerOf utility.
Pagination
When pagination is enabled, the successResponseInterceptor processes responses with a Content-Range header (e.g., 0-1/20 where 0-1 is start and end index adn 20 is the items total number).
For application/json responses contains the pagination additional info:
{
data: any, // Original response data
pagination: {
start: number, // Start index
end: number, // End index
total: number, // Total items
size: number, // Page size
current: number, // Current page
of: number // Total pages
}
}The Content-Range header is parsed to extract start, end, and total. The limit query parameter (or defaultPageLimit) determines the page size.
Example:
import { createApiAgent } from '@pastweb/tools';
const apiAgent = createApiAgent({
withCredentials: true,
headers: {
Accept: 'application/json',
'Content-Type': 'application/json',
'Authorization': 'Bearer token'
},
onGetValidToken: async () => ({ Authorization: 'Bearer newToken' }),
onUnauthorizedResponse: () => {
console.log('Unauthorized! Redirecting to login...');
},
});
// Making a GET request
apiAgent.get('/api/data').then(response => {
console.log('Data:', response.data);
});
// Uploading a file
const formData = new FormData();
formData.append('file', fileInput.files[0]);
apiAgent.upload('/api/upload', formData, (event) => {
console.log('Upload progress:', Math.round((event.loaded * 100) / event.total));
});
// Downloading a file
apiAgent.download('/api/download', 'file.txt');
// Cached GET Request
const agent = createApiAgent({ cache: true });
await agent.get('/api/users', { queryKey: 'users', expireIn: '5m' });
await agent.get('/api/users', { queryKey: 'users' }); // Returns cached response
// Paginated GET Request
const agent = createApiAgent({ pagination: { defaultPageLimit: 10, header: 'Content-Range' } });
const response = await agent.get('/api/users?offset0&limit=10');
// Response: { data: [...], info: { start: 0, end: 9, total: 50, size: 10, current: 1, of: 5 } }useQuery
Creates a reactive query Object that fetches data using the provided function and updates based on reactive dependencies
Syntax
function useQuery<T>(config: QueryConfig<T>): QueryInfo<T>Parameters
config: QueryConfig<T>The configuration for the query.fn: () => Promise<AxiosResponse<T>>The function to fetch data, typically an agent.get call from createApiAgent.source?: (() => any) | Ref<any> | Array<(() => any) | Ref<any>>(optional) Reactive dependencies to track (e.g.,() => page.value). Required if fn uses reactive variables in its URL or parameters.immediate?: boolean | Ref<boolean>(optional) (default:true) Iftrueor aRefwithvalue: true, runs the query immediately. If aRef<boolean>, triggers the query whenvaluebecomestrue.initialData?: T(optional) Initial data to set before the first fetch. Sets isPlaceholderData to true until a fetch completes.SSRWait(optional) (default:true) If run in server side block the thread until thefn: () => Promise<AxiosResponse<T>>is solved or generate an error.
Returns
QueryInfo<T>A reactive object with query state and methods.data: T | nullThe response data orinitialData.pagination: Page<any>['pagination'] | nullPagination info if availableisPending: booleanTrue during initial fetch or refetch.isLoading: booleanAlias forisPending.isFetching: booleanTrue during any fetch.isError: booleanTrue if an error occurred.error: anyThe error object, if any.isPlaceholderData: booleanTrue ifdataisinitialData.fetch: () => Promise<void>Manually triggers the query.
The useQuery function creates a reactive query that automatically fetches data when initialized (if immediate is true) or when reactive dependencies in source or immediate (if a Ref) change. It integrates with createApiAgent to handle reactive AxiosResponse objects, ensuring data updates with new responses or cache changes. The source parameter is required to track reactive variables used in fn (e.g., page.value in the URL).
Example:
import { createApiAgent, createQuery, ref } from '@pastweb/tools';
// Create an API agent
const agent = createApiAgent({
cache: true,
pagination: true,
});
// Basic query with immediate fetch
const query = useQuery({
fn: () => agent.get('/api/users?_page=1&_limit=10'),
});
console.log(query.data); // Initially null, updates to { data: [...], info: {...} }
console.log(query.isPending); // true during fetch, then false
// Query with reactive dependency
const page = ref(1);
const reactiveQuery = useQuery({
fn: () => agent.get(`/api/users?_page=${page.value}&_limit=10`),
source: page,
});
page.value = 2; // Triggers refetch with new URL
// Query with Ref<boolean> immediate
const immediate = ref(false);
const controlledQuery = useQuery({
fn: () => agent.get('/api/users'),
immediate,
});
immediate.value = true; // Triggers fetchuseMutation
Creates a reactive mutation that executes the provided function and updates state with lifecycle hooks.
Syntax
function useMutation<T>(config: MutationConfig<T>): MutationInfo<T>Parameters
config: MutationConfig<T>The configuration for the mutation.fn: (...args: any[]) => Promise<AxiosResponse<T>>The mutation function, typicallyagent.post,agent.put, oragent.deletefromcreateApiAgent.onMutate?: (...args: any[]) => Promise<void> | void(optional) (default:noop) Called before the mutation executes, with the same arguments asmutate.onSuccess?: (...args: any[]) => Promise<void> | void(optional) (default:noop) Called after a successful mutation or error in thefinallyblock, with the same arguments asmutate.onError?: (...args: any[]) => Promise<void> | void(optional) (default:noop) Called if the mutation fails, with the error object.initialData?: T(optional) (default:null) Initial data to set before the first mutation. SetsisPlaceholderDatato trueuntil a mutation completes.
Returns
MutationInfo<T>A reactive object with mutation state and methods.data: T | nullThe responsedataorinitialData.isPending: booleanTrue during mutation execution.isMutating: booleanAlias forisPending.isError: booleanTrue if an error occurred.error: anyThe error object, ifany.isPlaceholderData: booleanTrue ifdataisinitialData.mutate: (...args: any[]) => Promise<void>Executes the mutation with provided arguments.
The useMutation function creates a reactive mutation object for operations like POST, PUT, or DELETE requests. It supports variadic arguments for mutate and fn, allowing flexible payloads. Lifecycle hooks (onMutate, onSuccess, onError) enable custom logic before and after mutations. The function integrates with createApiAgent’s reactive AxiosResponse, ensuring data updates with new responses or cache changes. Unlike useQuery, mutations are triggered manually via mutate, not reactively.
Example:
import { createApiAgent, useMutation } from '@pastweb/tools';
// Create an API agent
const agent = createApiAgent({
headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
});
// Basic mutation
const mutation = useMutation({
fn: (data: any) => agent.post('/api/users', data),
});
await mutation.mutate({ name: 'John' });
console.log(mutation.data); // { id: 1, name: 'John' }
console.log(mutation.isMutating); // false
// Mutation with lifecycle hooks
const createUser = createMutation({
fn: (data: any) => agent.post('/api/users', data),
onMutate: async (data) => {
console.log('Starting mutation with:', data);
},
onSuccess: async (data) => {
console.log('Mutation succeeded with:', data);
},
onError: async (error) => {
console.error('Mutation failed:', error);
},
});
await createUser.mutate({ name: 'Jane' });
// Mutation with initialData
const updateUser = useMutation({
fn: (data: any) => agent.put('/api/users/1', data),
initialData: { id: 1, name: 'Placeholder' },
});
console.log(updateUser.data); // { id: 1, name: 'Placeholder' }
console.log(updateUser.isPlaceholderData); // true
await updateUser.mutate({ name: 'Updated' });
console.log(updateUser.isPlaceholderData); // false createAsyncStore

Returns
T- The created asynchronous store.
Throws
- Will throw an error if the
storeNameoption is not set.
Example:
import { createAsyncStore } from '@pastweb/tools';
const storeOptions = {
storeName: 'myStore',
timeout: 30000,
};
const myStore = createAsyncStore(storeOptions);normalizeAsyncQueue
Normalizes an array of asynchronous operations into an array of promises.
Syntax
function normalizeAsyncQueue(wait: Wait | Wait[]): Promise<any>[];Parameters
wait:Wait | Wait[]- A single asynchronous operation or an array of asynchronous operations. Each operation can be:
- A promise
- A function that returns a promise
- An object representing an asynchronous store
- A single asynchronous operation or an array of asynchronous operations. Each operation can be:
Returns
Promise<any>[]- An array of promises.
Throws
Error- Throws an error if an invalid type is encountered in the wait array.
Example:
import { normalizeAsyncQueue } from '@pastweb/tools';
// Single promise
const singlePromise = Promise.resolve('done');
normalizeAsyncQueue(singlePromise); // [singlePromise]
// Array of promises and functions
const promise1 = Promise.resolve('done');
const promise2 = () => Promise.resolve('done');
normalizeAsyncQueue([promise1, promise2]); // [promise1, promise2()]
// Async store
const asyncStore = {
$$asyncStore: true,
isStoreReady: false,
isReady: new Promise(resolve => resolve(true)),
init: () => { asyncStore.isStoreReady = true; }
};
normalizeAsyncQueue(asyncStore); // [asyncStore.isReady]Remarks
The normalizeAsyncQueue function is designed to handle various asynchronous operations and normalize them into a uniform array of promises. This is particularly useful when dealing with mixed asynchronous workflows, ensuring that all operations can be awaited in a consistent manner.
This function supports:
- Promises
- Functions returning promises
- Asynchronous stores
If an asynchronous store is passed in, the function will check if the store is ready. If it is not, the init method of the store will be called to prepare it.

name: 'appStores',
stores: [useCounterStore, useUserStore, useThemeStore],
timeout: 15000,
onInit: async (collectedStores) => {
console.log('Initializing stores...', Object.keys(collectedStores));
// Example: load user data after stores are collected
await fetchInitialData(collectedStores.user);
},
});
// Usage in app bootstrap
await useAsyncStores.init();
// Now safe to use stores
const counter = useAsyncStores.store.counter();
const user = useAsyncStores.store.user();
// Or wait for readiness
await useAsyncStores.isReady;createEventEmitter

createMatchDevice
Creates a utility for detecting and managing device types based on user agent strings and media queries.
The createMatchDevice function is designed to help detect device types based on user agent strings and media queries. This utility is particularly useful for responsive design and ensuring that your application behaves differently depending on the device being used.
- Device Detection: The utility supports both user agent string matching and media query matching to determine device types.
- Server-Side Rendering (SSR): If server-side rendering is detected (isSSR), user agent-based detection is used, and media query-based detection is skipped.
- Dynamic Updates: The utility can respond to changes in media query matches, allowing dynamic updates to the device state.
- Event Emitter: The underlying event emitter allows you to listen for specific device match changes, enabling reactive design and behavior changes.
Syntax
function createMatchDevice(config: DevicesConfig = {}): MatchDevice;Parameters
config:DevicesConfig- An optional configuration object that maps device names to their detection criteria. Each device's configuration can include a user agent test and/or a media query.
Returns
MatchDevice- An object with methods for getting the current matched devices, setting change listeners, and listening for specific device match events.
Methods
getDevices(): MatchDevicesResult- Returns an object representing the current state of device matches. Each key in the object corresponds to a device name, and the value is a boolean indicating whether the device matches the criteria.
onChange(fn: (devices: MatchDevicesResult) => void): void- Sets a callback function to be executed whenever the device match state changes. The callback receives an updated MatchDevicesResult object.
fn: (devices: MatchDevicesResult) => void- The callback function to be called on device state change.
onMatch(isDeviceName: string, fn: (result: boolean, deviceName: string) => void): void- Sets a listener for a specific device match event. The callback is triggered whenever the specified device's match state changes.
deviceName:string- The name of the device to listen for.
fn:(result: boolean, isDeviceName: string) => void- The callback function to be called when the device match event occurs.
Example:
import { createMatchDevice } from '@pastweb/tools';
const deviceConfig = {
mobile: {
userAgent: /Mobile|Android/i,
mediaQuery: '(max-width: 767px)',
},
tablet: {
mediaQuery: '(min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1024px)',
},
};
const matchDevice = createMatchDevice(deviceConfig);
matchDevice.onChange((devices) => {
console.log('Device states updated:', devices);
});
matchDevice.onMatch('mobile', (deviceName) => {
console.log('Mobile device match changed:', deviceName);
});
const currentDevices = matchDevice.getDevices();
console.log('Current matched devices:', currentDevices);Here is the Markdown documentation in the same style as the "isType" function documentation:

justLocalStorage:boolean(optional)- Whether to only remove the value from local storage. Default is false.
- Returns:
Promise<void>- A promise that resolves once the value is removed.
storage.isStored(path: string): booleanChecks if a specific path is stored in the storage.path:string- The path to check.
- Returns:
boolean- True if the path is stored, false otherwise.
storage.isStoreReady: Promise<true>- A promise that resolves when the storage is fully initialized and ready to be used.
Example:
import { } from '@pastweb/tools';
const storage = createStorage({
dbName: 'myDatabase',
storeName: 'myStore',
type: 'indexedDB',
defaultSettings: { theme: 'dark' },
});
// Set a value in storage
await storage.set('theme', 'light');
// Get a value from storage
const theme = await storage.get('theme');
// Remove a value from storage
await storage.remove('theme');createViewRouter
The createViewRouter function is a core utility for managing routing in a single-page application (SPA).
It provides the ability to define routes, navigate between them, and react to route changes within the application.
The ViewRouter history library covering the most common
functionalities implemented in other router UI Frameworks like react-router or vue-router.
The goal of this implementation is to obtain a consistant set of API and terminology cross framework.
Syntax
function createViewRouter(options: RouterOptions): ViewRouter;Parameters
options:RouterOptions- An object containing configuration options for the router. The available options include:
base:string(optional)- The base path for all routes.
debug:boolean(optional)- If true, enables debug logging for the router.
history:History(optional)- The history object for managing session history.
routes:Route[](mandatory)- An array of route definitions.
preloader:() => void(optional)- A function to execute before a route is loaded.
RouterView:Component(mandatory)- The component to render for matched routes.
beforeRouteParse:(route: Route) => Route | void | Promise<Route | void>(optional)- A function to execute before parsing a route, if you want to modify a
Route.
- A function to execute before parsing a route, if you want to modify a
beforeRouteSelect:(route: SelectedRoute) => SelectedRoute | void | Promise<SelectedRoute | void>(optional)- A function to execute before selecting a route, as example for the route authentication/authirization.
sensitive: boolean (optional)- If true, route matching will be case-sensitive.
Returns
ViewRouter- An object that represents the router. This object contains properties and methods to manage routing within the application.
Example:
import { createViewRouter } from '@pastweb/tools';
import { RouterView } from '@pastweb/x';
const router = createViewRouter({
routes: [
{ path: '/', component: HomePage },
{ path: '/about', component: AboutPage },
],
preloader: MyProloaderComponent,
RouterView,
});Note : pastweb/x is intended to be a specific framework package (react, preact, vue, svelte ...).
Core Features
Route Parsing and Matching:- The router parses and normalizes routes, creating a structure that allows efficient matching of paths against the defined routes.
Event-Driven:- It uses an event emitter to notify listeners about route changes or when new routes are added.
Navigation:- The router offers methods to programmatically navigate, push, replace, or go back and forward in the history stack.
Base Path Management:- Allows setting and managing a base path, which is useful for applications hosted under subdirectories.
Route Preloading:- Supports route preloading, enabling efficient loading of route components.
Custom Hooks:- Provides hooks (
beforeRouteParse,beforeRouteSelect) that allow custom logic to be executed during route parsing and selection.
- Provides hooks (
Example:
beforeRouteParse: async (route) => {
// You can now do async work (API calls, config loading, etc.)
const extraData = await fetch(`/api/route-config${route.path}`);
return { ...route, meta: { ...route.meta, extraData } };
},
beforeRouteSelect: async (route) => {
if (route.path === '/admin' && !(await isUserAdmin())) {
return { ...route, redirect: '/login' }; // or throw new Error(...)
}
return route;
}Methods
setBase(base: string): Promise<void>- Sets the base path for the router. The base path is the common prefix for all routes.
addRoute(route: Route): Promise<void>- Adds a new route to the router dynamically after the router has been initialized.
onRouteChange(fn: (route: SelectedRoute) => void): RemoveListener- Subscribes to route change events. The provided callback function will be called whenever the route changes.
onRouteAdded(fn: (routes: Route[]) => void): RemoveListener- Subscribes to route added events. The provided callback function will be called whenever a new route is added to the router.
navigate(path: string, state?: any): Promise<void>- Navigates to a specific path programmatically.
push(path: string, state?: any): Promise<void>- Pushes a new state onto the history stack and navigates to the specified path.
replace(path: string, state?: any): void- Replaces the current state in the history stack with a new state and navigates to the specified path.
go(delta: number): void- Moves forward or backward in the history stack by a specified number of steps.
setSearchParams(searchParams: URLSearchParams): void- Sets the search parameters for the current location without reloading the page.
setHash(hash?: string): void- Sets the hash for the current location without reloading the page.
getRoute(pathname: string): Promise<Route | false>- Find and return the current
routeorfalsefor not route found.
- Find and return the current
setRequest(request: ServerRequest): Promise<void>- Sets a new location and refreshes the current route. Useful in SSR context to initialize the router with the server request URL.
getRouterLink(options: RouterLinkOptions): RouterLink- Creates a router link object that contains methods for navigation and checks if the link is active or exactly active.
Edge Cases
No Matching Route:- If no route matches the current path, the router will warn in the console and return a default empty route.
Base Path Changes:- When the base path is changed, the router adjusts all existing routes accordingly to ensure consistent matching.
Debugging
If the debug option is enabled, the router logs detailed information about its internal state, such as the current paths, parsed routes, and the selected route. This can be helpful for debugging route configuration issues.
Route Object
The Route Object contains the information to define a route for ViewRouter.
Syntax
interface Route {
path: string;
redirect?: string;
view?: View;
views?: Record<string, View>;
children?: Route[];
[optionName: string]: any;
};Props
path:string- the path string description for the route match.
redirect:string(optional)- the URL to be redirected if the route match the
pathrule.
- the URL to be redirected if the route match the
view:View = any | (() => Promise<{ default: any, [prop: string]: any }>)(optional)- the
Viewcomponent or a function returning theViewcomponent module exported asdefault.
- the
views:Record<string, View>(optional)- An Object of named views to be handled from a
RouterViewcomponent.
- An Object of named views to be handled from a
children:Route[](optional)- An array of nested
Routes.
- An array of nested
The Route object can be extended with any other custom property which will be present in the SelectedRoute structure as described below:
Example:
const routes: Route[] = [
{
path: '/home',
view: HomeComponent,
icon: 'homeIcon',
},
{
path: '/category/:name',
view: CategoryComponent,
icon: 'categoryIcon',
children: [
{
path: '/product/?:id',
view: ProductComponent,
}
],
},
{
path: '/',
redirect: '/home',
},
];Parameters
The parameters declared in the roue path will be present in the SelectedRoute structure described below under the property params.
| Syntax | Meaning | Example Path | Resulting Params |
|-------------------------|----------------------------------|-------------------------------|------------------|
| :name | Required parameter | /user/john | { name: 'john' } |
| ?:surname | Optional parameter | /user/john or /user/john/doe | { name: 'john', surname?: 'doe' } |
| :surname? | Optional parameter (alternative) | /user/john or /user/john/doe | { name: 'john', surname?: 'doe' } |
| *slug | Catch-all (rest) parameter | /user/john/profile/edit | { name: 'john', slug: ['profile', 'edit'] } |
| ?*slug | Optional catch-all | /user/john or /user/john/a/b | { name: 'john', slug?: [...] } |
| *slug? | Optional catch-all (alternative) | /user/john or /user/john/a/b | { name: 'john', slug?: [...] } |
When the browser URL will match one of the Routes, the SelectedRoute will be available in the router.currentRoute property having this structure:
interface SelectedRoute {
parent: SelectedRoute | boolean;
regex: RegExp;
path: string;
params: RouteParams;
searchParams: URLSearchParams;
setSearchParams: (params: URLSearchParams) => void;
hash: string;
setHash: (hash?: string) => void;
views: Record<string, View>;
options: RouteOptions;
child: SelectedRoute | boolean;
}In the example above the icon property will be present in the options parameters, (router.currentRoute.options.icon).
filterRoutes
The filterRoutes function filters a list of routes based on specified criteria. It allows you to filter out routes that do not meet the conditions defined in the provided filter descriptor.
Syntax
function filterRoutes(routes: Route[] = [], filter: FilterDescriptor = {}): Route[];Parameters
routes:Route[] (default: [])- An array of route objects to be filtered. Each Route object represents a route in the application and may contain properties such as path, component, redirect, children, and others.
filter:FilterDescriptor- An object describing the filter criteria. The keys in this object represent the properties of the Route objects to filter on, and the values are the criteria that those properties must match. The value can be a specific value to match or a function that returns a boolean indicating whether the route matches the criteria.
Returns
Route[]:- An array of Route objects that match the filter criteria. If a route has children, the function will recursively filter them based on the same criteria. If no routes match, an empty array is returned.
Example:
import { filterRoutes, type Route } from '@pastweb/tools';
const routes: Route[] = [
{ path: '/home', component: HomeComponent },
{ path: '/about', component: AboutComponent, hideInPaths: true },
{ path: '/user/:id', component: UserComponent },
];
const filter = { component: HomeComponent };
const filteredRoutes = filterRoutes(routes, filter);
console.log(filteredRoutes);
// Outputs: [{ path: '/home', component: HomeComponent }]routeDive
The routeDive function is designed to traverse a nested route structure and return the route found at a specified depth.
This is useful in scenarios where routes have nested children, and you need to access a route at a certain level within that hierarchy.
Syntax
function routeDive(route: SelectedRoute, depth: number): SelectedRoute;Parameters
route:SelectedRoute- The initial
SelectedRouteobject representing the current route from which the traversal begins. This route may contain nested child routes.
- The initial
depth:number- The number of levels to traverse into the nested route structure. A depth of 0 returns the initial route, while a higher depth traverses deeper into the nested child routes.
Returns
SelectedRoute:- The
SelectedRouteobject located at the specified depth. If the specified depth exceeds the available levels of nesting, the function returns the deepest child route available.
- The
Example:
import { routeDive, type SelectedRoute } from '@pastweb/tools';
const currentRoute: SelectedRoute = {
path: '/parent',
child: {
path: '/parent/child',
child: {
path: '/parent/child/grandchild',
},
},
};
const grandchildRoute = routeDive(currentRoute, 2);
console.log(grandchildRoute.path); // Output: '/parent/child/grandchild'Edge Cases
Zero Depth:- If the
depthparameter is0, the function returns the initial route without any traversal.Exceeding Depth: - If the specified
depthis greater than the actual number of nested levels, the function returns the last availablechildroute.
- If the
Practical Use Cases
View Rendering:- In a UI framework where different views are rendered based on the current route,
routeDivecan be used to determine which nested route corresponds to the current view depth.
- In a UI framework where different views are rendered based on the current route,
Breadcrumb Navigation:- For generating breadcrumb navigation,
routeDivecan help in identifying the route at different levels, enabling dynamic breadcrumb creation.
- For generating breadcrumb navigation,
Example of Nested Route Traversal Given a route structure with multiple levels of nesting, routeDive will traverse through each level until it either reaches the specified depth or the deepest available route. This allows developers to dynamically access deeply nested routes without manually iterating through each level.
Date and Time
isDateYoungerOf
The isDateYoungerOf function checks whether a given date is younger (i.e., more recent) than a specified duration.
The duration is provided as a string composed of multiple time components such as years, months, days, hours, minutes, and seconds.
Syntax
function isDateYoungerOf(date: Date, duration: string): boolean;Parameters
date:Date- The date object to be checked against the specified duration.
duration:string- A string representing the duration composed of various time units:
Yfor yearsMfor monthsDfor dayshfor hoursmfor minutessfor seconds
- A string representing the duration composed of various time units:
- The string can contain multiple components, e.g.,
"2Y3M1D"for 2 years, 3 months, and 1 day.
Returns
boolean:- Returns
trueif the given date is younger than the specified duration relative to the current date and time. Returnsfalseotherwise.
- Returns
Example:
import { isDateYoungerOf } from '@pastweb/tools';
const date = new Date();
date.setDate(date.getDate() - 1); // 1 day ago
console.log(isDateYoungerOf(date, '1D')); // Output: true
console.log(isDateYoungerOf(date, '2D')); // Output: true
console.log(isDateYoungerOf(date, '12h')); // Output: falseEdge Cases
Past and Future Dates: The function checks the date against the current date and time, so it works for both past and future dates relative tonow.Zero or Negative Durations: If the duration components result in zero or negative values, the function will consider the date as not younger and will returnfalse.
Element functions
cl
Combines class names using the clsx library.
Syntax
function cl(...args: ClassValue[]): string;Parameters
...args:ClassValue[]- A list of class values to combine. Each ClassValue can be a string, an object, or an array.
Returns
string- The combined class names as a single string.
Example:
import { cl } from '@pastweb/tools';
const classNames = cl('btn', { 'btn-primary': true }, 'extra-class');
// Output: 'btn btn-primary extra-class'Methods
cl.setClasses- Sets custom CSS module classes and returns a function to combine class names with these classes.
Syntax
cl.setClasses(classes: CSSModuleClasses | CSSModuleClasses[], mode: 'merge' | 'replace' = 'merge'): (...args: ClassValue[]) => string;Parameters
classes:CSSModuleClasses | CSSModuleClasses[]- An object or array of objects representing CSS module classes to use for mapping class names.
mode:'merge' | 'replace'(optional) The mode for combining classes:'merge': Combines the custom classes with the existing classes.'replace': Replaces existing class names with the custom classes.
Returns
(...args: ClassValue[]) => stringA function that takes class values as arguments and returns the combined class names as a string.
Throws
ErrorThrows an error if a provided class object is not a valid object.
The setClasses method returns a function which it works as the cl function, but returns the scoped classes presents in the CSS Module if present or the class string itself if not.
Example:
import { cl } from '@pastweb/tools';
const cssModules = {
'btn': 'btn_hash',
'btn-primary': 'btn-primary_hash',
};
const cls = cl.setClasses(cssModules);
const classNames = cls('btn', 'btn-primary', 'some-other-class');
// Output: 'btn_hash btn-primary_hash some-other-class'It is possible combine the classes of multiple CSS Modules:
Example:
import { cl } from '@pastweb/tools';
const cssModules1 = {
'btn': 'btn_hash1',
'btn-primary': 'btn-primary_hash1',
};
const cssModules2 = {
'btn-primary': 'btn-primary_hash2',
};
const clsMerge = cl.setClasses([ cssModules1, cssModules2 ], 'merge' /** you can omit the second parameter as it is 'merge' by default */);
const classNames = clsMerge('btn', 'btn-primary');
// Output: 'btn_hash1 btn-primary_hash1 btn-primary_hash2'
const clsReplace = cl.setClasses([ cssModules1, cssModules2 ], 'replace');
const replacedClassNames = clsReplace('btn', 'btn-primary');
// Output: 'btn_hash1 btn-primary_hash2'Or is it possible make a composition with different ClassProcessor.
Key Features:
- Type Definition: Added
ClassProcessorinterface to define the shape of our function with both the call signature andsetClassesmethod. - Composable setClasses: Each setClasses call:
- Creates a new processor function
- Maintains its own classes and mode
- Returns a new function with its own setClasses method
- Concatenates classes when composing
Example:
import { cl } from '@pastweb/tools';
// Basic usage
cl('btn', 'active'); // 'btn active'
// Single module
const module1 = { btn: 'btn_123', active: 'active_456' };
const cl1 = cl.setClasses(module1);
cl1('btn', 'active'); // 'btn_123 active_456'
// Multiple modules composition
const module2 = { btn: 'btn_789', hover: 'hover_abc' };
const cl2 = cl1.setClasses(module2);
cl2('btn', 'hover'); // 'btn_123 btn_789 hover_abc'
// Different modes
const cl3 = cl2.setClasses({ btn: 'btn_xyz' }, 'replace');
cl3('btn', 'active'); // 'btn_xyz active_456'
// Each instance remains independent
cl('btn'); // 'btn'
cl1('btn'); // 'btn_123'
cl2('btn'); // 'btn_123 btn_789'
cl3('btn'); // 'btn_xyz'
// Example CSS modules
const module1 = { foo: 'foo_1', bar: 'bar_1' };
const module2 = { foo: 'foo_2', baz: 'baz_2' };
const module3 = { bar: 'bar_3' };
// Chained setClasses calls
const cx = cl
.setClasses(module1, 'merge') // First set of classes
.setClasses(module2, 'replace') // Override with second set
.setClasses(module3, 'merge'); // Add third set
// Usage
console.log(cx('foo', 'bar', 'baz'));
// Output depends on final composition, likely "foo_2 bar_3 baz_2"Benefits:
- Chainable: You can keep adding modules with .setClasses().
- Immutable: Each call creates a new processor without modifying previous ones.
- Flexible: Maintains mode control at each composition level.
- Type-safe: TypeScript will properly infer types throughout the chain.
Performance Benefits:
- Frequent calls with the same arguments will return cached results.
- Each processor instance maintains its own cache.
- Reduces computation for repeated class combinations.
createEntry
Creates an entry object with event emitter capabilities and various utility methods to be extended for a specific frontend framework.
An Entry is the shorthend for Entrypoint, to be intended (in this case) as Javascript entrypoint and the DOM mount element where the Javascript Framework should apply its effect.
The createEntry function gives an high level interface to other frameworks for implement the mount, unmount and update methods with some additional support for the SSR.
For the SSR process, because the Entries could be nested, as example for a framework migration process, and considering different frameworks could have a sync or async function
for the Server Side Rendering, the Entry object has other 2 methos to solve this problem.
memoSSR(htmlPromiseFunction: () => Promise<string>): void;- This method must be used inside the
mountmethod and memorise theHTMLstring produced from theSSRframework function, returning a uniquessrId.
- This method must be used inside the
getComposedSSR(): Promise<string>- Is an
asyncfunction wich compose the finalHTMLstring replacing thesseIdwith the previous memorisedHTMLfor eachEntryObject.
- Is an

function createEntry<E extends Entry<O>, O extends EntryOptions>(options?: O): E;Parameters
options: O Options configuration for the entry. The options are of typeEntryOptionsand may include the following properties:EntryComponent:any(optional)- The component to be set as the entry component.
entryElement:HTMLElement(optional)- The HTML element that represents the entry point in the DOM.
querySelector:string(optional)- A CSS selector string that can be used to find the entry element within the DOM.
initData:Record<string, any>(optional)- An object containing initial data to be passed into the entry during its creation.
Returns
E- The created entry object, which includes event emitter functionalities and various utility methods.
Methods The entry object returned by createEntry includes the following methods:
entry.memoSSR(htmlPromiseFunction: () => Promise<string>): void;: Stores the SSR HTML promise function.htmlPromiseFunction:() => Promise<string>: The function that returns an HTML promise.
entry.getComposedSSR(): Promise<string>: Composes the SSR HTML from the stored promises.- Returns:
Promise<string>: The composed SSR HTML.
- Returns:
entry.setEntryElement(entryElement: HTMLElement): void;: Sets the entry element.entry.setQuerySelector(querySelector: string): void;: Sets the query selector.entry.setOptions(options: O): void;: Sets the options for the entry.entry.mergeOptions(options: O): void;: Merges the options for the entry.entry.setEntryComponent(Component: any): void;: Sets the entry component.
Events The entry object also has event emitter capabilities with the following methods:
on: Registers an event listener.emit: Emits an event.removeListener: Removes an event listener.
the events used to handle the entry are:
mount: called when the entry must be mounted to the DOM.update: called when the some data in the entry nust be updated.unmount: called when the entry must be unmounted from the DOM.
Example>
import { createEntry } from '@pastweb/tools';
const entry = createEntry({
EntryComponent: MyComponent,
entryElement: document.getElementById('app'),
querySelector: '#app',
initData: { key: 'value' },
});
// Usage of the entry object
entry.on('someEvent', () => console.log('Event triggered'));
entry.emit('someEvent');createPortal
Creates a Portal object that manages the lifecycle of portal entries, including opening, updating, and closing portal instances. Portal is a common term used to identify a mechanism usually implemented in a Front End framework for render and handle components in a not nested DOM element a good example is a rendering of a modal window you can see an example implementation for react, vue or angualr. This function abstract the mechanism in order to have a consistant api cross Frameworks useing the Entry object.
Syntax
function createPortal(
entry: (props: Record<string, any>, component: any) => Entry<any>,
defaults?: Record<string, any>
): Portal;Parameters
entry:((props: Record<string, any>, component: any) => Entry<any>)- A function that takes props and a component, returning an Entry object that represents the portal entry. This function defines how the portal entry is created.
defaults:Record<string, any>(optional)- An optional object containing default properties that will be merged with the props when creating a portal entry. This allows for setting default behavior or configuration for the portal.
Returns
PortalAn object that provides methods for managing portal entries, such as opening, updating, closing, and removing them.
Example:
import { createPortal } from '@pastweb/tools';
import { MyComponent } from './MyComponent';
const myPortal = createPortal((props, component) => new MyComponent(props), { defaultProp: 'defaultValue' });
const portalId = myPortal.open(MyComponent, { prop1: 'value1' });
myPortal.update(portalId, { prop1: 'newValue' });
myPortal.close(portalId);
myPortal.remove(portalId);Methods of Portal The returned Portal object contains several methods for managing portal instances:
open(component: any, props?: Record<string, any>, defaults?: Record<string, any>): string | false- Opens a new portal entry with the specified component and props. Returns the entry ID if successful, or false if the portal could not be opened.
update(entryId: string, entryData?: any): boolean- Updates an existing portal entry with the given entry ID and new data. Returns true if the update was successful, or false otherwise.
close(entryId: string): void- Closes the portal entry associated with the given entry ID.
remove(entryId: string): boolean- Removes the portal entry associated with the given entry ID from the portals cache. Returns true if the removal was successful, or false otherwise.
setIdCache(newCache: any): void- Sets a new cache for managing entry IDs within the portal.
setPortalElement(newElement: HTMLElement | (() => HTMLElement)): void- Sets a new portal element or a function that returns the portal element, which is used for rendering the portal's content.
setPortalsCache(newPortals: any): void- Replaces the current portals cache with a new one.
setOnRemove(fn: (entryId: string) => void): void- Sets a callback function that will be called whenever a portal entry is removed.
Example with Custom Configuration:
import { createPortal } from '@pastweb/tools';
import { CustomComponent } from './CustomComponent';
const customPortal = createPortal((props, component) => new CustomComponent(props), { color: 'blue' });
const entryId = customPortal.open(CustomComponent, { size: 'large' });
customPortal.setOnRemove(id => console.log(`Removed portal entry with ID: ${id}`));
customPortal.close(entryId);In this example, a custom portal is created, opened with specific props, and then closed. The setOnRemove method is used to log a message whenever a portal entry is removed.
anchorsSetup
Sets up a structure of portals based on provided anchor IDs, descriptors, and configurations. This function is designed to initialize a tree of portal functions that can manage portal entries across different elements identified by their IDs.
Syntax
