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 @dexyod/lotide
Require it:
const _ = require('@dexyod/lotide');
Call it:
const results = _.tail([1, 2, 3]) // => [2, 3]
Documentation
The following functions are currently implemented:
-
map(array, callback): The map function will return a new array based on the results of the callback function. -
takeUntil(array, callback): The function will return a slice of the array with elements taken from the beginning. It should keep going until the callback/predicate returns a truthy value. -
findKey(object, callback): It should scan the object and return the first key for which the callback returns a truthy value. -
middle(array): The middle function should return an array with only the middle element(s) of the provided array. -
countOnly(array, object): countOnly will be given an array and an object. It will return an object containing counts of everything that the input object listed. -
countLetters(string): The function should take in a sentence (as a string) and then return a count of each of the letters in that sentence. -
letterPositions(string): The letterPositions function will return all the indices (zero-based positions) in the string where each character is found. -
findKeyByValue(object, value): The findKeyByValue function should scan the object and return the first key which contains the given value. -
eqObjects(obj1, obj2): The function eqObjects which will take in two objects and returns true or false, based on a perfect match. -
assertObjectsEqual(actual, expected): The assertObjectsEqual will take in two objects and console.log an appropriate message to the console if they are equal or not. -
eqArrays(array1, array2): The eqArrays function takes in two arrays and returns true or false, based on a perfect match. -
assertArraysEqual(actual, expected): The assertArraysEqual will take in two arrays and console.log an appropriate message to the console if they are equal or not. -
without(array1, array2): The without function will return a subset of a given array, removing unwanted elements. -
flatten(array1): The function flatten will take in an array containing elements including nested arrays of elements, and return a "flattened" version of the array. -
assertEqual(actual, expected): The assertEqual function will take in two arguments and console.log an appropriate message to the console if they are equal or not. -
head(array): The head function takes in an array and retrieves the first element from the array. This is often referred to as the "head" of the array. -
tail(array): The tail function returns the "tail" of an array: everything except for the first item (head) of the provided array.
