Pattern Optimization Toolkit for JavaScript
Clean conditions for complex codebases. Not replacing if-else — optimizing repetitive patterns.
npm install codeoptimize🎯 What is codeoptimize?
codeoptimize is a lightweight utility library with 5 focused patterns that help you write cleaner, more maintainable code.
✅ 5 Core Patterns (No Overlap)
| Pattern | Purpose | Use When | Example |
|---------|---------|----------|---------|
| router() | Message/Event routing | 5+ branches on same value | router(map).route(key) |
| guard() | Deep nesting flattener | 3+ nested if levels | guard(x).ok().then(fn) |
| match() | State/Case matching | Fixed values (strings, enums) | match(x).case(1, A) |
| validate() | Form/API validation | Multi-field validation | validate(d).email() |
| toggle() | Repeated toggle patterns | Same pattern 3+ times | toggle(state, set, {on, off}) |
❌ What codeoptimize is NOT
- ❌ Not an if-else replacement - We optimize patterns, not replace JavaScript
- ❌ Not a logic obfuscator - Simple conditions stay as
if/else - ❌ Not magic - Pure JavaScript, no eval, no dynamic code
✅ What codeoptimize IS
- ✅ Pattern optimizer - Repetitive code becomes DRY
- ✅ Readability booster - Complex nesting becomes flat chains
- ✅ Production ready - 50+ tests, TypeScript, zero deps
📦 API Overview
| Pattern | Function | Use Case | Example |
|---------|----------|----------|---------|
| Router | router() | Message/Event routing (5+ branches) | router(map).route(key) |
| Guard | guard() | Deep nesting (3+ levels) | guard(x).ok().then(fn) |
| Match | match() | State machine / Fixed values | match(x).case(1, A).else(B) |
| Validate | validate() | Form/API validation | validate(d).email().check() |
| Toggle | toggle() | Repeated toggle patterns | toggle(state, set, {on, off}) |
🔧 Utilities (Optional)
Helper functions for complex conditions:
import { all, any, not, one, none } from 'codeoptimize';
all([a, b, c]) // All must be true
any([a, b, c]) // Any can be true
not(a) // Negate
one([a, b, c]) // Exactly one true
none([a, b, c]) // None are trueUse with plain JavaScript:
// Keep it simple - no when() needed
if (all([isLoggedIn, hasPermission, notExpired])) {
grantAccess();
} else {
denyAccess();

1️⃣ router() - Object-based Message Routing
Replaces: Long if-else chains for message/event handling
Use when: 5+ branches based on same value (msg.type, action, event)
import { router } from 'codeoptimize';
// BEFORE - 70 lines of if-else
ws.onmessage = (event) => {
const msg = JSON.parse(event.data);
if (msg.type === 'phone_connected') {
setConnected(true);
setPhoneInfo(msg.info);
addLog(`📱 ${msg.info?.model}`, 'success');
}
if (msg.type === 'phone_disconnected') {
setConnected(false);
addLog('Disconnected', 'error');
}
if (msg.type === 'log') {
setKeylogs(prev => [msg, ...prev]);
}
// ... 4 more if blocks
};
// AFTER - 15 lines with router
const messageRouter = router({
phone_connected: (msg) => {
setConnected(true);
setPhoneInfo(msg.info);
addLog(`📱 ${msg.info?.model}`, 'success');
},
phone_disconnected: () => {
setConnected(false);
addLog('Disconnected', 'error');
},
log: (msg) => setKeylogs(prev => [msg, ...prev]),
root_result: handleRootResult,
audio_chunk: playAudioChunk,
file_list: handleFileList,
file_data: handleFileData
});
ws.onmessage = (event) => {
const msg = JSON.parse(event.data);
messageRouter.route(msg.type, msg, (type) => {
console.warn(`Unknown message type: ${type}`);
});
};API:
router(handlers) // Create router
.route(key, data, fb) // Route to handler
.default(fn) // Set global fallback
.has(key) // Check if handler exists
.keys() // Get all registered keys2️⃣ guard() - Guard Clauses for Nested Conditions
Replaces: Deep nested if statements (3+ levels)
Use when: Multiple null/undefined checks or early returns needed
import { guard } from 'codeoptimize';
// BEFORE - Deep nesting (hard to read)
if (user) {
if (user.active) {
if (user.verified) {
if (user.role === 'admin') {
runAdmin();
}
}
}
}
// AFTER - Clean guard chain
guard(user)
.exists()
.prop('active')
.prop('verified')
.prop('role')
.is('admin')
.then(() => runAdmin());
// OR with early return pattern
guard(user)
.exists()
.prop('permissions')
.notEmpty()
.then(permissions => {
// Safe to use permissions here
processPermissions(permissions);
})
.else(() => {
showGuestView();
});API:
guard(value)
.exists() // Check not null/undefined
.ok() // Check truthy
.notEmpty() // Check not empty (array/string/object)
.isFunction() // Check is function
.isArray() // Check is array
.isObject() // Check is object
.prop(name) // Access property safely
.check(fn) // Custom validation
.then(fn) // Execute if valid
.else(fn) // Execute if invalid
.or(defaultValue) // Get value or default
.isValid() // Check if valid
.value() // Get underlying value3️⃣ toggle() - Toggle Helper
Replaces: Identical toggle functions repeated multiple times
Use when: Same toggle pattern repeated 3+ times
import { toggle } from 'codeoptimize';
// BEFORE - 5 identical functions (40 lines)
const toggleCamera = () => {
const newState = !isCameraOn;
setCameraOn(newState);
if (newState) {
sendJSON({ type: 'start_camera' });
addLog('Started', 'success');
} else {
sendJSON({ type: 'stop_camera' });
addLog('Stopped', 'info');
}
};
const toggleAudio = () => {
const newState = !isAudioOn;
setAudioOn(newState);
if (newState) {
sendJSON({ type: 'start_audio' });
addLog('Started', 'success');
} else {
sendJSON({ type: 'stop_audio' });
addLog('Stopped', 'info');
}
};
// ... 3 more identical functions
// AFTER - Reusable helper (15 lines)
const toggleCamera = () => toggle(isCameraOn, setCameraOn, {
on: () => {
sendJSON({ type: 'start_camera' });
addLog('📷 Camera Started', 'success');
},
off: () => {
sendJSON({ type: 'stop_camera' });
addLog('Camera Stopped', 'info');
}
});
const toggleAudio = () => toggle(isAudioOn, setAudioOn, {
on: () => {
sendJSON({ type: 'start_audio' });
addLog('🎤 Audio Started', 'success');
},
off: () => {
sendJSON({ type: 'stop_audio' });
addLog('Audio Stopped', 'info');
}
});API:
toggle(state, setState, {
on, // Execute when turning on
off, // Execute when turning off
before, // Execute before state change
after // Execute after state change
})4️⃣ match() - Pattern Matching
Replaces: Switch statements, if-else chains for fixed values
Use when: 4+ branches based on same value (status, state, type)
import { match } from 'codeoptimize';
// BEFORE - Switch statement
function render() {
switch (status) {
case 'loading':
return <LoadingSpinner />;
case 'success':
return <DataView data={data} />;
case 'error':
return <ErrorMessage error={error} />;
case 'empty':
return <EmptyState />;
default:
return <div>Unknown state</div>;
}
}
// AFTER - Match expression
const render = () =>
match(status)
.case('loading', <LoadingSpinner />)
.case('success', <DataView data={data} />)
.case('error', <ErrorMessage error={error} />)
.case('empty', <EmptyState />)
.else(<div>Unknown state</div>);
// With functions (lazy evaluation)
match(httpStatus)
.case(200, () => handleSuccess())
.case(404, () => handleNotFound())
.case(500, () => handleServerError())
.cases([401, 403], () => handleAuthError()) // Multiple values
.else(() => handleUnknown());API:
match(value)
.case(matchValue, result) // Match single value
.cases([values], result) // Match multiple values (OR)
.when(predicate, result) // Match with function
.else(result) // Default case
.value() // Get result
.isMatched() // Check if matched
.run() // Execute and get result5️⃣ validate() - Validation Chain
Replaces: Manual validation if-else chains
Use when: Multiple field validations needed
import { validate } from 'codeoptimize';
// BEFORE - Manual validation (20 lines)
function validateUser(data) {
const errors = [];
if (!data.email) {
errors.push('Email is required');
} else if (!/\S+@\S+\.\S+/.test(data.email)) {
errors.push('Invalid email format');
}
if (!data.password) {
errors.push('Password is required');
} else if (data.password.length < 8) {
errors.push('Password must be at least 8 characters');
}
if (!data.age || data.age < 18) {
errors.push('Must be 18 or older');
}
return errors.length === 0 ? { valid: true } : { valid: false, errors };
}
// AFTER - Validation chain (8 lines)
const validateUser = (data) =>
validate(data)
.required('email', 'password', 'age')
.email('email')
.minLength('password', 8)
.min('age', 18)
.check();
// Usage
const result = validateUser(formData);
if (result.valid) {
submit(result.data);
} else {
showErrors(result.errors);
}API:
validate(data)
.required(...fields) // Required fields
.email(field) // Email format
.minLength(field, min) // Minimum length
.maxLength(field, max) // Maximum length
.min(field, value) // Minimum number
.max(field, value) // Maximum number
.pattern(field, regex) // Regex pattern
.custom(field, fn) // Custom validation
.equals(field, value) // Must equal value
.oneOfRequired(...fields) // At least one required
.check() // Get validation resultValidation Result:
{
valid: boolean,
errors: [{ field, message }],
errorCount: number,
data: Object | null,
fieldCount: number
}🎯 Real-World Examples
Example 1: WebSocket Message Handler
import { router } from 'codeoptimize';
const wsRouter = router({
connect: handleConnect,
disconnect: handleDisconnect,
message: handleMessage,
error: handleError,
ping: () => sendPong()
});
ws.onmessage = (e) => {
wsRouter.route(JSON.parse(e.data).type);
};Example 2: React Component State
import { match } from 'codeoptimize';
function UserProfile({ state }) {
return match(state.status)
.case('loading', <Spinner />)
.case('error', <Error msg={state.error} />)
.case('success', <Profile data={state.data} />)
.else(<Empty />);
}Example 3: Form Validation
import { validate } from 'codeoptimize';
const handleSubmit = (formData) => {
const validation = validate(formData)
.required('email', 'password', 'name')
.email('email')
.minLength('password', 8)
.minLength('name', 2)
.pattern('phone', /^\d{10}$/, 'Invalid phone number')
.check();
if (validation.valid) {
submit(validation.data);
} else {
setErrors(validation.errors);
}
};Example 4: Permission System
import { cond, guard } from 'codeoptimize';
const checkAccess = (user, resource) =>
guard(user)
.exists()
.prop('permissions')
.notEmpty()
.then(permissions =>
cond(resource.type)
.is('document', () => hasDocAccess(permissions, resource))
.is('admin', () => permissions.includes('admin'))
.is('settings', () => permissions.includes('settings'))
.else(false)
)
.or(false);Example 5: Toggle Features
import { toggle } from 'codeoptimize';
// Multiple toggles with same pattern
const toggleDarkMode = () => toggle(isDark, setDarkMode, {
on: () => document.body.classList.add('dark'),
off: () => document.body.classList.remove('dark')
});
const toggleNotifications = () => toggle(isNotif, setNotif, {
on: () => enableNotifications(),
off: () => disableNotifications()
});📊 When to Use What
| Scenario | Lines | Pattern | Benefit |
|----------|-------|---------|---------|
| 5+ if-else branches | 50+ | router(), cond(), match() | 70% reduction |
| 3+ nested if levels | 15+ | guard() | 60% reduction |
| Repeated toggles (3+) | 30+ | toggle() | 50% reduction |
| Form validation | 20+ | validate() | 60% reduction |
| State machine | 15+ | match() | 40% reduction |
| Complex boolean | 5+ | when() + all() | 30% reduction |
| Simple 1-2 conditions | 1-5 | Keep if/else | No change |
🔐 Security & Performance
Is this safe for production?
✅ YES - 100% safe
- Pure JavaScript (no eval, no dynamic code)
- Works in Node.js, browser, serverless
- Zero dependencies
- TypeScript definitions included
Performance impact?
| Pattern | Speed | Overhead |
|---------|-------|----------|
| if/else | Fastest | Baseline |
| router() | Almost same | Negligible |
| guard() | Slightly slower | <1ms per chain |
| match() | Almost same | Negligible |
| validate() | Fast | <5ms for 10 fields |
Overhead is negligible unless you're doing 10 lakh operations/sec.
🚫 Anti-Patterns (Don't Do This)
// ❌ Over-engineering simple condition
cond(age >= 18).then(() => allow()).else(() => deny());
// ✅ Keep it simple
if (age >= 18) allow(); else deny();
// ❌ Replacing clear ternary
cond(isActive).then('active').else('inactive');
// ✅ Ternary is better here
const status = isActive ? 'active' : 'inactive';
// ❌ Unnecessary abstraction
when(loading && !error && hasData).then(show);
// ✅ Plain JS is clearer
if (loading && !error && hasData) show();📦 Bundle Size
