pipes

pipes is a lightweight JavaScript/TypeScript library designed to reduce function nesting and help you write more readable code. It leverages a fluent interface to facilitate more readable function compositions.

Features

• Lightweight: Just a few lines of code to improve the readability of your JavaScript/TypeScript projects.
• Fluent Interface: The .pipe() method allows for readable chained function calls.
• Type-Safe: Developed with TypeScript to ensure type safety while using the library.

Installation

Install pipes using your favorite package manager with the following command:

npm install @shun-shobon/pipes

Usage

Here's how you can use pipes to simplify nested function calls:

import { pipe } from "@shun-shobon/pipes";

const value = pipe(1)
  .pipe((x) => x + 2)
  .pipe((x) => x * 2).value;

console.log(value); // 6

In the above example:

• We initiate a pipe with a value of 1.
• We then add 2 to this value in the first .pipe() method.
• In the second .pipe() method, we multiply the result of the previous operation by 2.
• We obtain the final result using the .value property.
• The result, 6, is then logged to the console.

API

pipe(initialValue)

Creates a new pipe with the given initial value.

.pipe(function)
