useme

a set of functions that I refuse to rewrite all over the place though they are just one liners

Install it

npm install useme --save

Usage

val

returns a default value if value is unset

var empty = null;
console.log(useme.val(empty, 'wahoo'));  // prints wahoo

valProperty

return a default value if object property is unset

var data = useme.valProperty({
    one : 1,
    two : 2
  }, 'wahoo');
console.log(data.three);  // prints wahoo

include, exclude

Nothing fancy, I jus don't like writing this kind of filters over and over

var array = [1, 2, 3, 4];
var included = useme.include(array, [2, 4]);
var excluded = useme.exclude(array, [2, 4]);
console.log(included); // [2, 4]
console.log(excluded); // [1, 3]

send

wrapper around request module, returning a promise

useme.send({ uri : myawesomeuri })
  .then(function (data) {
    console.log(data.request);
    console.log(data.response);
    })
  .fail(function (data) {
    console.log(data.error);
    })
