Immutable Deep Update

Immutably update deeply nested data structures with ease.

example

const { over, set, view } = require('./src')
 
const user = {
  firstname: 'Han',
  location: { city: 'Paris' }
  friends: [
    { fisrtname: 'Luke', location: { city: 'New York' } }
    { fisrtname: 'Darth Vador', location: { city: 'Dark star' } }
  ]
}
 
console.log(
  over('friends[0].location.city', city => city + ' City', user)
)
/* =>  {
  firstname: 'Han',
  location: { city: 'Paris' }
  friends: [
    { fisrtname: 'Luke', location: { city: 'New York City' } },
    { fisrtname: 'Darth Vador', location: { city: 'Dark star' } }
  ]
} */
 
console.log(
  over('friends', friends => friends.concat({
    firstname: 'Chewi',
    location: { city: '?' }
  }), user)
)
/* =>  {
  firstname: 'Han',
  location: { city: 'Paris' }
  friends: [
    { fisrtname: 'Luke', location: { city: 'New York' } },
    { fisrtname: 'Darth Vador', location: { city: 'Dark star' } },
    { fisrtname: 'Chewi' location: { city: '?' } }
  ]
} */

Map over array values

 
console.log(
  view('friends[..].location.city', user)
)
// => [ 'New York', 'Dark star' ]
 
console.log(
  set('friends[..].location.city', 'Tokyo', user)
)
/* =>  {
  firstname: 'Han',
  location: { city: 'Paris' }
  friends: [
    { fisrtname: 'Luke', location: { city: 'Tokyo' } },
    { fisrtname: 'Darth Vador', location: { city: 'Tokyo' } }
  ]
} */

Map over object values

const state = {
  usersById: {
    'a': { firstname: 'Rick', id: 'a' },
    'b': { firstname: 'Morty', id: 'b' }
  }
}
 
console.log(
  view('usersById{..}.firstname', state)
)
// => { a: 'Rick', b: 'Morty' }
 
console.log(
  over('usersById{..}', user => `${user.firstname} - ${user.id}`, state)
)
// => { usersById: { a: 'Rick - a', b: 'Morty - b' } }

Supported path

• 'azerty' => prop 'azerty'
• 'aze.rty' => compose (prop 'aze') (prop 'rty')
• 'aze["rty"]' => compose (prop 'aze') (prop 'rty')
• '0' => index 0
• '[0]' => index 0
• 'aze[0].rty' => compose (prop 'aze') (index 0) (prop 'rty')
• 'aze.0.rty' => compose (prop 'aze') (index 0) (prop 'rty')
• '[..]' => map over all the items of an array
• '{..}' => map over all values of an object

Roadmap

• Nice error handling
