Getting Started

Installing and Importing

Install the package by command:

 npm install @ngodings/ngx-pipes --save

Import the module

1. Use npm to install the package

npm install @ngodings/ngx-pipes --save

2. You could either add into your module imports the NgxPipesModule in order to add all of the pipes, Or add a specific module such as NgxArrayPipesModule, NgxStringPipesModule, NgxMathPipesModule

import {NgxPipesModule} from '@ngodings/ngx-pipes';

@NgModule({
 // ...
 imports: [
   // ...
   NgxPipesModule
 ]
})

3. Pipes are also injectable and can be used in Components / Services / etc..

import {ReversePipe} from 'ngx-pipes';

@Component({
  // ..
  providers: [ReversePipe]
})
export class AppComponent {
  constructor(private reversePipe: ReversePipe) {
    this.reversePipe.transform('foo'); // Returns: "oof"
  }
  // ..
}

4. You can also use pipes as part of your template for ex.

<p>{{ 'foo' | reverse }}</p> <!-- Output: "oof" -->

and it's also possible to stack multiple pipes

<p>{{ 'foo' | titlecase | reverse }}</p> <!-- Output: "Oof" -->

String

Time ago pipe converts date to 'just now', 'X days ago', 'last week', 'X days ago', etc..

Usage: string | timeAgo

const lastWeek = moment().subtract(10, 'days');

<span>Updated: {{now | timeAgo}}</span> <!-- Output: "just now" -->
<span>Updated: {{lastWeek | timeAgo}}</span> <!-- Output: "last week" -->

<p>{{'Foo' | prefixsuffix: 'nice prefix ': ' and awesome suffix!'}}</p> <!-- Output: "nice prefix Foo and awesome suffix!" -->

Array

range

Returns an array with range of numbers

Usage: range: [start: number, default = '1']: [count: number]: [step: number | optional, default = '1']

this.items = this.rangePipe.transform(1, 5); // Returns: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

<li *ngFor="let item of items"> <!-- Array: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5] -->

reverse

Reverses an array

Usage: array | reverse

this.items = [1, 2, 3];

<li *ngFor="let item of items | reverse"> <!-- Array: [3, 2, 1] -->

unique

Removes duplicates from array

Usage: array | unique: 'Property (Optional)'

this.items = [1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3];

<li *ngFor="let item of items | unique"> <!-- Array: [1, 2, 3] -->

filterBy

Returns object array of grouped by items by discriminator

Usage: array | filterBy: [prop, nested.prop, ...]: search: [strict | optional]

this.users = [
   {id: 1, first_name: 'John', last_name: 'Doe', work: { company: 'Foo Tech' }},
   {id: 2, first_name: 'Jane', last_name: 'West', work: { company: 'AAA Solutions' }},
   {id: 3, first_name: 'Bruce', last_name: 'John', work: { company: 'Bar Tech' }},
   {id: 4, first_name: 'William', last_name: 'Cent', work: { company: 'Foo Tech' }, arr: [{name: 'foo'}]}
];

<!-- Returns users with `id` of 1 -->
<p>{{ users | filterBy: ['id']: 1 }}</p> 
<!-- Output: "[{id: 1, first_name: 'John', last_name: 'Doe', work: { company: 'Foo Tech', previous_company: '' }}]" -->

<!-- filterBy also support nested properties -->
<p>{{ users | filterBy: ['work.company']: 'Bar Tech' }}</p> 
<!-- Output: "[{ "id": 3, "first_name": "Bruce", "last_name": "John", "work": { "company": "Bar Tech", "previous_company": "" } }]" -->

<!-- filterBy also support nested properties inside of an array -->
<p>{{ users | filterBy: ['arr.name']: 'foo' }}</p>
