NodeJs Helper

basic set of helpers to make coding a bit easier

Installation

npm i js-easify

Usage

Array

isDistinct

checks if the value in array is distinct or not. if left empty will validate the entire array for distinct values. isDistinct(any[],string?)

e.g

isDistinct(["foo","bar"]) //true isDistinct(["foo","bar","foo"]) //false isDistinct(["foo","bar","foo"],"bar") //true

removeDuplicate

removes dublicate values from array. removeDuplicate(Array<string>)

e.g

removeDuplicate([1,2,3,2,3,1]) // [1,2,3]

pluck

gets specific values from Array of objects. pluck(Array<Object>,String)

e.g

let data =[ { name:"foo" , id:1},{name:"bar" , id:2 } ] console.log(pluck(data,"name")) // ["foo","bar"]

Object

sort

converts array of objects into an object based on key provided. sort(Array<Object>,String)

e.g

let data=[{ name:"foo" , id:1 },{ name:"bar" , id:2 }]

sort(data,"name") // { foo:{ id:1 , name:"foo" }, bar:{ id:2 , name:"bar" } }

mergeUp

merges child object with the parent object. mergeUp(Object,String)

e.g

let data ={ test:22 , foo:"aas" , val:{ foo:"aa" , bar:"bb" } }

mergeUp(data,"val") // { test: 22, foo: 'aa', bar: 'bb' }

mergeUp(data,"val",false) // { test: 22, foo: 'aas', bar: 'bb' }

exceptObj

return an object without specified properties. exceptObj(Object ,Array<strings> )

e.g

let data = { val1 : "22", val2 : "44" }

console,log( exceptObj( data , [ "val1" ] ) ) // { val2 : "44" }

Int

returnAsInt

return anything as number useful when you dont know the return type and you want out put to be number. returnAsInt(any)

e.g

returnAsInt("44") //44 returnAsInt(44) //44 returnAsInt({}) //1

Url

getParams

Get params from url provided and if left empty will get params from if in dom. used (query-string under the hood) getParams(String)

e.g

let data='example.com?foo=bar'

getParams(data) // { foo : "bar" }

ESM and CJS support

This package supports TreeShanking for esm as well as seprate files for each function so you can use it in backend without bloating your application as well as chose between cjs and esm.

e.g import { exceptObj, returnAsInt } from "js-easify" or const { returnAsInt } = require( "js-easify" )

//Or

e.g import returnAsInt from "js-easify/esm/Int/returnAsInt.js" or const returnAsInt =require("js-easify/cjs/Int/returnAsInt.js")
