Functions

Usage

  1. import one of the functions in your project (in this example the function isset is imported)
import { isset } from '@spfxappdev/utility';

API

allAreNullOrEmpty

since @spfxappdev/utility@1.3.0

Determines if all of the the provided properties are null, undefined, or empty (or whitespace if string-value).

Examples
import { allAreNullOrEmpty } from '@spfxappdev/utility';

const emptyArr = []; //EMPTY
const obj = {}; //NOT null, undefined or empty
const notEmptyString = 'not empty';
const emptyString = '      '; // With whitespace

allAreNullOrEmpty(obj, notEmptyString); //false
allAreNullOrEmpty(emptyArr, emptyString); // true
allAreNullOrEmpty(obj, emptyString); // false
allAreNullOrEmpty(emptyArr, emptyString, obj, notEmptyString); // false

allAreSet

since @spfxappdev/utility@1.3.0

Determines if all of the the provided properties are set. (Not null or undefined)

Examples
import { allAreSet } from '@spfxappdev/utility';

const emptyArr = []; //EMPTY
const obj = {}; //NOT null, undefined or empty
const notEmptyString = 'not empty';
const emptyString = '      '; // With whitespace
let notSet;

allAreSet(obj) // true
allAreSet(emptyArr, emptyString); // true
allAreSet(obj, notEmptyString); //true
allAreSet(obj, emptyString); // true
allAreSet(obj, emptyString, notSet); // false
allAreSet(emptyString, undefined, null); //false

asyncFn

since @spfxappdev/utility@1.1.0

A wrapper function to handle a await function and their results/errors.

Examples

Instead of using this:

try {
    const result = await myAsyncFunction();
    console.log(result);
    //Do things with result
} 
catch (error) {
    console.error("An error occurred", error);
    throw "Whatever";
}

You can use the asyncFn-function like this

import { asyncFn } from '@spfxappdev/utility';

const [result, error] = await asyncFn(myAsyncFunction);
//with paramaters
const [result2, error2] = await asyncFn(myAsyncFunction, true, 2000);

//with "this" binding
const [result3, error3] = await asyncFn(this.myAsyncFunction.bind(this), true, 2000);

if(error) {
    throw "Whatever";
}

console.log(result);
//Do things with result

asyncFnAsResult

since @spfxappdev/utility@1.4.0

A wrapper function to handle an await function and their results/errors as IResult<TResult>

Examples

Instead of using this:

const result = new Result<any>();

try {

    result.value = await myAsyncFunction();
    console.log(result);
    //Do things with result
} 
catch (error) {
    result.error = error;
    console.error("An error occurred", error);
}

return result;

You can use the asyncFnAsResult-function like this

import { asyncFnAsResult } from '@spfxappdev/utility';

const result = await asyncFnAsResult(myAsyncFunction);
//with parameter binding
const result2 = await asyncFnAsResult(myAsyncFunction, null, param1, param2, ...);
//with "this" binding
const result3 = await asyncFnAsResult(myAsyncFunction, this, param1, param2, ...);

if(!result.success) {
    throw "Whatever";
}

console.log(result);
//Do things with result

catchFn

since @spfxappdev/utility@1.4.0

A function to wrap a specified function with a try-catch block and returns IResult<TResult>.

Examples

Instead of using this:

const result = new Result<any>();

try {

    result.value = myFunction();
    console.log(result);
    //Do things with result
} 
catch (error) {
    result.error = error;
    console.error("An error occurred", error);
}

return result;

You can use the catchFn-function like this

import { catchFn } from '@spfxappdev/utility';

const result = catchFn(myFunction);
//with parameter binding
const result2 = catchFn(myFunction, null, param1, param2, ...);
//with "this" binding
const result3 = catchFn(myFunction, this, param1, param2, ...);

if(!result.success) {
    throw "Whatever";
}

console.log(result);
//Do things with result

copyToClipboard

since @spfxappdev/utility@1.3.0

cssClasses({ 'spfx-app-dev': true });  // => 'spfx-app-dev'
cssClasses({ 'spfx-app-dev': false });  // => ''
cssClasses({ spfx-app-dev: true }, { theme: true }); // => 'spfx-app-dev theme'
cssClasses({ spfx-app-dev: true, theme: true });  // => 'spfx-app-dev theme'
cssClasses('spfx-app-dev', { theme: true, active: false }, 'item');  // => 'spfx-app-dev theme item'
cssClasses(null, false, 'spfx-app-dev', undefined, 0, 1, { theme: null }, '');  // => 'spfx-app-dev'
const arr = ['theme', { active: true, item: false }]; cssClasses('spfx-app-dev', arr);  // => 'spfx-app-dev theme active'

Returns the first element of a the array, or the first element that satisfies the condition (by predicateFunc), or defaultValue if no element is found.

Note: Since v1.1.0 the predicateFunc is optional. If not specified the first element (index == 0) will be returned or defaultValue

Decorators

The decorators are helpful if you want to achieve a lot with less code and also fast.

In order to better understand how decorators work, I recommend reading this article.

Simple definition: An ES2016 decorator is an expression which returns a function and can take a target, name and property descriptor as arguments. You apply it by prefixing the decorator with an @ character and placing this at the very top of what you are trying to decorate. Decorators can be defined for either a class, a method or a property.

Let's compare the same code without decorators and with decorators (by using the tryCatch decorator). The logic is not changed, but the result is the same:

Simple class WITHOUT decorators

class MyExampleClass {

    public dummyFunc(str: string): number {
        try {
            //will throw an error, if str is undefined;
           return str.indexOf("h");
        }
        catch(error) {
            //do something
        }

        return 0;
    }
}

(Same) Simple class WITH decorators

class MyExampleClass {
    
    @tryCatch<number>({
        defaultValueOnError: 0
    })
    public dummyFunc(str: string): number {
        return str.indexOf("h");
    }
}

Needless to say, decorators save a lot of time, reduce the number of lines (13 lines vs. 8 lines) and improve readability.

How to use decorators

INFO: To use the method decorators, you must set the experimentalDecorators property in your tsconfig.json to true.

Here is a list of all available method decorators:

Decorator name Description
@tryCatch Decorator to wrap a class method with a try-catch block. Works also with Promise

In order to use the decorators, they must be imported

export { tryCatch  } from '@spfxappdev/storage';

@tryCatch

since @spfxappdev/utility@1.4.0

Decorator to wrap a class method with a try-catch block. Works also with Promise

Example
class MyExampleClass {
    
    @tryCatch<number>({
        defaultValueOnError: 0
    })
    public dummyFunc(str: string): number {
        return str.indexOf("h");
    }
}
