absurdum

---

Absurdum is a Javascript utility library built with a focus on providing idempotent side-effect free functions and clear/readable modular source for tree shaking.

Features

• Explores the flexibility of Reduce
• Abstraction Free -> tree-shake friendly
• Functional -> all operators are side-effect free
• Polyfills -> includes operator polyfills for older browsers
• Modern -> works transparently with ESM and CJS
• Typescript -> typings are provided for all operators
• Intellisense -> supports code completions + inline documentation
• Well Tested -> includes 600+ tests covering every aspect

Imports

This package provides a variety of entry-points for all JS platforms

Browsers

All top-level operator namespaces (ie [arrays, objects, strings]) can be imported from the index

import { arrays, objects, strings } from 'path/to/absurdum/index.js';

The minified version can be imported from

import { arrays, objects, strings } from 'path/to/absurdum/index.min.js';

Node/Bundlers (ESM)

Top-level ES module namespaces are provided for Node/Bundlers

import { arrays, objects, strings } from 'absurdum';

Individual operators can be imported from their parent namespaces

import { chunk, find } from 'absurdum/arrays';
import { assign, invert } from 'absurdum/objects';
import { camelCase, repeat } from 'absurdum/strings';

Note: Webpack's tree-shaking algorithm doesn't handle multi-layered exports. To optimize bundle size, prefer individual operator imports.

Node/Legacy (CJS)

For Node users who rely on CommonJS, top-level namespaces are provided

const arrays = require('absurdum').arrays;
const objects = require('absurdum').objects;
const strings = require('absurdum').strings;

Note: CJS entry-points are backward-compatible with all non-EOL versions of Node

Usage

Import an operator and feed it some inputs

import { reverse } from 'absurdum/arrays';
 
const input = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'];
const output = reverse(input);
console.log(output);
// > ['d', 'c', 'b', 'a']

Tip: For VSCode users. Input type-checking, intellisense, and inline documentation are all supported.
